added to the product. Servicing a double-insulated product requires extreme care and knowledge
of the system and should only be done by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a
double-insulated product must be identical to the original parts in the product. A double-insulated
product is marked with the words: «Double-Insulation» or «double-insulated».
......... The symbol may also be marked on the product.

impact of our products by continuously improving product design and our technology of manufacturing.

result in dangerous substances getting into the groundwater and thus into our food chain, damaging our
health.

equipment or to a collection point for the reuse of the machine. Information on the collection points can be
