II.11 INSTRUCTIONS TO DISMANTLE THE UNIT AND
DISPOSE OF HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES
SAFEGUARD THE ENVIRONMENT!
HITECSA has always cared about protecting the
environment. When the unit is dismantled it is
important to adhere scrupulously to the following
procedures.
The unit must only be dismantled by a firm authorised for the disposal
of scrap machinery/products.
The unit as a whole is composed of materials considered as secondary
raw materials and the following conditions must be complied with:
 the compressor oil must be removed, recovered and delivered to a
facility authorized to collect waste oil;
 if the appliance contains antifreeze, this should not just be disposed
of freely, as it causes pollution. It should be collected for possible
recycling;
 refrigerant fluid should not be discharged into the atmosphere. It
should instead be recovered by means of homologated devices, stored
in suitable cylinders and delivered to a company authorised for the
collection;
 the filter-drier and electronic components (electrolytic condensers)
are considered special waste, and must be delivered to a body
authorized to collect such items;
 the foamed polyurethane rubber and foamed polyethylene mesh
pipe insulation, the shrink-wrap, the polystyrene packaging and the
sound-absorbent sponge lining on the panelling must be removed and
processed as urban waste.
