Caring For The Environment - Miele HS18 Operating Instructions Manual

Caring for the environment

Disposing of sales packaging
The packaging material protects the
robot vacuum cleaner from transport
damage. The packaging materials used
are selected from materials which are
environmentally friendly for disposal
and can therefore be recycled.
Recycling the packaging material
reduces the use of raw materials in the
manufacturing process and also
reduces the amount of waste in landfill
sites. Ensure that any plastic
wrappings, bags, etc. are disposed of
safely and kept out of the reach of
babies and young children. Danger of
suffocation.

Disposing of your old
appliance
Before disposing of your robot vacuum
cleaner, remove the exhaust filter and
the pre-filter and dispose of them with
your household waste.
Electrical and electronic appliances
contain many valuable materials. They
also contain certain materials,
compounds and components which
were essential for their correct
functioning and safety. These could be
hazardous to human health and to the
environment if disposed of with
household waste or if handled
incorrectly. Please do not, therefore,
dispose of your old appliance with
household waste.
Instead, please make use of officially
designated collection and disposal
points to dispose of and recycle
electrical and electronic appliances in
your local community, with your dealer
or with Miele. By law (depending on
country), you are solely responsible for
deleting any personal data from the old
appliance prior to disposal.
Ensure that your old appliance presents
no danger to children while being
stored for disposal.
