3.1. Regulations
3.1.1 DISPOSAL: PACKAGING AND DECOMMISSIONED APPLIANCE
The user is responsible for consigning the obsolete appliance to his disposal facility; oth-•
erwise, he will be liable to prosecution under the relevant waste disposal legislation.
Appropriate separate disposal ready for recycling of decommissioned appliances, and •
environment-friendly processing and disposal of waste, help to prevent possible harmful
impacts on the environment and health and encourage the recycling of the materials of
which the product consists.
For more detailed information on the waste disposal systems available, contact your lo-•
cal waste disposal service, or the shop from which the appliance was purchased.
DIRECTIVE 2002/96/EC (WEEE): INFORMATION FOR USERS
This information is intended only for the owners of appliances which carry the symbol
shown in Fig. A on the adhesive technical data label fitted to the product (serial number
label).
This symbol indicates that the product is classified, under the relevant regulations as elec-
trical or electronic equipment and is compliant with EU Directive 2002/96/EC (WEEE).
Therefore, at the end of its useful life, it must be handled separately from household waste;
it can be consigned free of charge to a recycling centre for electrical and electronic equip-
ment or returned to the dealer on purchase of an equivalent new appliance.
Italian Decree Law 151/05, which implements the EU guidelines, extends the principle
of Producers’ responsibility to the electrical and electronic products sector. Producers are
responsible for implementing and operating a system for disposing of the waste generated
by the electrical and electronic equipment they offer for sale. Producers are therefore re-
sponsible for collecting WEEE from the collection points (public and private), transporting
them to suitable treatment centres, and the subsequent recycling and reuse of the materials.
3.1.2 MATERIALS IN CONTACT WITH FOODS. INFORMATION FOR USERS.
EUROPEAN REGULATION No 1935/2004: INFORMATION FOR USERS.
The symbol shown here, which appears on the packaging, indicates that the materials in
this product which may come into contact with food are compliant with the requirements of
European Regulation No 1935/2004. This regulation is based on the principle that ma-
terials or objects intended for direct or indirect contact with foods must be sufficiently inert
to rule out the risk of transfer of substances to the foods in quantities such as to put human
health at risk or cause an unacceptable change in the foods’ composition or a deterioration
of their organoleptic characteristics.
* Foods might come into contact:
Inside the oven chamber, with oven shelves, dripping pans, confectionary trays, 1.
oven door glazing, rubber gaskets, and the sides of the oven itself.
On the hob, with pan stands, burners and the hob skin.2.
In the food-warmer drawer, with the sides of the compartment.3.
