The European directive 2002/96/EC “Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment” (WEEE) aims to minimise the impact of electrical and electronic equipment waste on the envi-
ronment and human health. To conform with this directive, electrical equipment marked with this symbol must not be disposed of in European public disposal systems.
European users of electrical equipment must now return end-of-life equipment for disposal.

98/482/EC Declaration
(Applies to products that have CE mark attached)
This equipment has been approved in accordance with Council Decision 98/482/EC for Pan-European single terminal connection to the public switched telephone network
(PSTN). However, due to differences between the individual PSTNs provided in different countries, the approval does not, of itself, give an unconditional assurance of successful
operation on every PSTN network termination point.
