Recycling
The packaging is made of environ mentally
friendly materials that can be used as
secondary raw materials. If you no longer
need this packaging, bring it to your
local recycling and waste disposal facility
according to the regulations applicable in
your country .
(Contract number D-59101-2009-1129).

disposal regulations that are applicable
