16. Environmental protection

Lawn clippings should be
composted and not disposed of
in household waste.
The machine, its packaging and
accessories are all produced
from recyclable materials and must be
disposed of accordingly.
By disposing of materials separately, and
in an environmentally friendly manner,
valuable resources can be re-used. For
this reason, the machine should be
disposed of for recycling at the end of its
useful life. Pay particular attention to the
information in the "Disposal" section
during disposal ( 4.10).
Consult your recycling centre or your
specialist dealer for information on the
proper disposal of waste products.
Waste products such as
batteries must always be
disposed of correctly. Observe
local regulations. Do not
dispose of the batteries with
domestic waste. Please hand them in to a
specialist dealer or at a hazardous waste
collection point.
Consult your recycling centre or your
specialist dealer for information on the
proper disposal of waste products. VIKING
recommends VIKING specialist dealers.
