Ecologically responsible disposal of packaging
materials and old appliances
Packaging materials
AEG microwave ovens require effective packaging to protect them during
transportation. Only the minimum packaging necessary is used.
Packaging materials (e.g. foil or styrofoam) can place children at risk.
Danger of suffocation. Keep packaging material away from children.
All packaging materials used are environmentally friendly and can be recycled.
The cardboard is made from recycled paper and the wooden parts are
untreated. Plastic items are marked as follows :
«PE» polyethylene eg packaging film
«PS» polystyrene eg packaging (CFC-free)
«PP» polypropylene eg packaging straps
By using and re-using the packaging, raw materials are saved and waste
volume is reduced.
Packaging should be taken to your nearest recycling centre. Contact your
local council for information.
Disposal of old appliances
Old appliances should be made safe before disposal by removing the plug,
and cutting off and disposing of the power cable.
It should then be taken to the nearest recycling centre. Check with your
local Council or Environmental Health Office to see if there are facilities in
your area for recycling the appliance.
