12.2 - DISPOSAL
Disconnection
Only authorised personnel must disconnect the unit.
Avoid leak or spills into the environment.
Before disconnecting the unit, the following must be
recovered, if present:
- refrigerant gas
- Anti-freeze solutions in the hydraulic circuits
When awaiting dismantling and disposal, the unit can also be
stored outdoors, as bad weather and rapid changes in
temperature will not cause damage to the environment, if the
unit's electric, cooling and hydraulic circuits are integral and
closed.
CE WEEE DIRECTIVE
The units covered by the legislation in question are marked
with the symbol on the side.
With the aim of protecting the environment, all of our units are
produced in compliance with CE Directive on waste electrical
and electronic equipment (WEEE).
The potential effects on the environment and on human health
due to the presence of hazardous substances are shown in
the use and maintenance manual in the section on residual
risks.
Information in addition to that indicated below, if required, can
be obtained from the manufacturer/distributor/importer, who
are responsible for the collection/handling of waste originating
from equipment covered by CE-WEEE. This information is
also available from the retailer who sold this appliance or from
the local authorities who handle waste.
CE-WEEE directive requires disposal and recycling of
electrical and electronic equipment as described therein to be
handled through appropriate collection, in suitable centres,
separate from collection for the disposal of mixed urban
waste.
The user must not dispose of the unit at the end of its life
cycle as urban waste. It must instead be handed over to
appropriate collection centres as set forth by current
standards or as instructed by the distributor.
If disposal takes places at the same time as delivery of a new
electrical or electronic equipment for the same family, the
product may be collected directly by the distributor.
Dismantling and disposal
THE UNIT MUST ALWAYS BE SENT TO AUTHORISED
CENTRES FOR DISMANTLING AND DISPOSAL.
When dismantling the unit, the fan, the motor and the coil, if
operating, may be recovered by the specialist centres for
reuse. All the materials must be recovered or disposed of in
compliance with the corresponding national standards in
force.
For further information on the decommissioning of the unit,
contact the manufacturer.
