On the data plate is put the symbol of a crossed-out wheeled dustbin:
This means that at the end of its working life, the product must not be
disposed of as urban waste. It must be taken to a special local authority
differentiated waste collection centre or to a dealer providing this service.
Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible negative
consequences for the environment and health deriving from
inappropriate disposal and enables the constituent materials to be
recovered to obtain significant savings in energy and resources.
As a reminder of the need to dispose of household appliances separately,
the product is marked with a crossed-out wheeled dustbin.
