WEEE contains both polluting substances (which

 

can cause negative consequences for the

EN

environment) and basic components (which can

 

be re-used). It is important to have WEEE

 

subjected to specific treatments, in order to

 

remove and dispose properly all pollutants, and

 

recover and recycle all materials. Individuals can

 

play an important role in ensuring that WEEE

 

does not become an environmental issue; it is

 

essential to follow some basic rules:

 

!WEEE should not be treated as household waste;

!WEEE should be handed over to the relevant collection points managed by the municipality or by registered companies. In many countries, for large WEEE, home collection could be present.

In many countries, when you buy a new appliance, the old one may be returned to the retailer who has to collect it free of charge on a one-to-one basis, as long as the equipment is of equivalent type and has the same functions as the supplied equipment.

2. WATER CONTAINERS

The water removed from the laundry during the drying cycle is collected in a container. When the container is full the relevant indicator light on the control panel will light, and the container MUST be emptied. However, we recommend that the container is emptied after each drying cycle.

Very little water will collect during the first few cycles of a new machine as an internal reservoir is filled first.

When it is full the water container will weigh about 6 kg.
