Disposal of packing material
The transport and protective packing
material has been selected from materi
-
als which are environmentally friendly
for disposal and can normally be recy
-
cled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags etc. are disposed safely and kept
out of the reach of babies and young
children. Danger of suffocation!
Rather than just throwing these materi
-
als away, please ensure they are of
-
fered for recycling.
Disposal of your old appliance
Old appliances may contain materials
which can be reclaimed or recycled.
Please contact your dealer, your local
waste collection centre or scrap mer
-
chant about potential recycling
schemes.
Before disposing of an old appliance
first make it unusable. Disconnect it
from the mains, cut the cable off the ap
-
pliance as close to the cleaner as pos
-
sible and cut the plug off. The plug cut
from the cable should be rendered use
-
less and then disposed of and on no
account be inserted into any socket
elsewhere in the house (electric shock
hazard).
Make appropriate arrangements for its
safe disposal and make sure that the
appliance presents no danger to chil-
dren while being stored for disposal.
Disposing of the dustbag and
filters
These are made from environmentally
friendly materials and can be disposed
of with the normal household waste.
The dustbag should only be disposed
of in this way if it has been used exclu
-
sively for general household dust.
