8. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION & DISPOSAL
8.1. Appliance disposal
This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EU
regarding electric and electronic appliances (WEEE). The WEEE contain both
polluting substances (that can have a negative effect on the environment) and
base elements (that can be reused). It is important that the WEEE undergo
specific treatments to correctly remove and dispose of the pollutants and
recover all the materials. Individuals can play an important role in ensuring that
the WEEE do not become an environmental problem; it is essential to follow a
few basic rules:
• the WEEE should not be treated as domestic waste;
• the WEEE should be taken to dedicated collection areas managed by the town council or a
registered company.
In many countries, domestic collections may be available for large WEEEs. When you buy a new
appliance, the old one can be returned to the vendor who must accept it free of charge as a one-
off, as long as the appliance is of an equivalent type and has the same functions as the purchased
appliance.
8.2. Saving and respecting the environment
Where possible, avoid pre-heating the oven and always try to fill it.
Open the oven door as infrequently as possible, because heat from the cavity disperses every time it
is opened. For a significant energy saving, switch off the oven between 5 and 10 minutes before the
planned end of the cooking time, and use the residual heat that the oven continues to generate. Keep
the seals clean and in order, to avoid any heat dispersal outside of the cavity. lf you have an electric
contract with an hourly tariff, the "delayed cooking" programme makes energy saving more simple,
moving the cooking process to start at the reduced tariff time slot.
