1. THE ENVIRONMENT - DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS
OUR REFRIGERATORS ARE ONLY PACKAGED USING NON-POLLUTANT, ENVIRONMENT-
FRIENDLY, RECYCLABLE MATERIALS. WE URGE YOU TO COOPERATE BY DISPOSING OF THE
PACKAGING PROPERLY. CONTACT YOUR LOCAL DEALER OR THE COMPETENT LOCAL
ORGANISATIONS FOR THE ADDRESSES OF COLLECTION, RECYCLING AND DISPOSAL
FACILITIES.
NEVER LEAVE ALL OR PART OF THE PACKAGING LYING AROUND: PACKAGING PARTS, AND
ESPECIALLY PLASTIC BAGS, MAY REPRESENT A SUFFOCATION HAZARD FOR CHILDREN.
IMPORTANT: YOUR OLD APPLIANCE MUST ALSO BE DISPOSED OF PROPERLY.
DELIVER THE APPLIANCE TO YOUR LOCAL ORGANISATION AUTHORISED TO COLLECT
SCRAPPED APPLIANCES. PROPER DISPOSAL ALLOWS THE INTELLIGENT RECOVERY OF
VALUABLE MATERIALS. REFRIGERATION APPLIANCES CONTAIN GASES WHICH MAY DAMAGE
THE ENVIRONMENT; IT IS IMPORTANT TO ENSURE THAT THE REFRIGERATION CIRCUIT
PIPELINES ARE NOT DAMAGED UNTIL THE COMPETENT SERVICE HAS TAKEN DELIVERY OF
THE APPLIANCE.
BEFORE SCRAPPING YOUR REFRIGERATOR IT IS IMPORTANT TO REMOVE DOORS AND
LEAVE SHELVES IN POSITION AS FOR USE, TO ENSURE THAT CHILDREN CANNOT
ACCIDENTALLY BECOME TRAPPED INSIDE DURING PLAY. ALSO, CUT THE POWER SUPPLY
LEAD AND REMOVE IT AND THE PLUG.
BY LAW, APPLIANCES MUST ONLY BE DISPOSED OF AT SUITABLY EQUIPPED FACILITIES.
