The symbol of a crossed-through waste bin on wheels means that the product must be
disposed of at a separate collection point. This also applies to the product and all
accessories marked with this symbol. Products labeled as such must not be disposed of with
normal household waste, but should be taken to a collection point for recycling electrical
and electronic equipment. Recycling helps to reduce the consumption of raw materials, thus
protecting the environment.
