4 Troubleshooting and technical data
4.1 Before you send in the appliance
Before contacting us or even sending the appliance to us, use the table to
check whether you can correct the problem yourself.
4.2 Warranty
The statutory warranty regulations in accordance with the EU Directive
1999/44/EC apply.
In non-EU countries the minimum requirements of the warranty in the re-
spective country apply.
4.3 Disposal
Dispose of the appliance in compliance with the environmental
protection laws of your country. Electrical waste may not be dis-
posed of together with domestic waste. Use local old-appliance
collection points instead.
The filters and dust filter bags are made from environmentally-friendly ma-
terials. You can dispose of them — as opposed to the appliance itself —
with your domestic waste, provided they do not contain anything that is for-
bidden from disposal in domestic waste.
