WEEE (Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment), Recycling of Electronic Products
United Kingdom
In 2006 the European Union introduced regulations (WEEE) for the collection and recycling of all waste electrical and electronic
equipment. It is no longer allowable to simply throw away electrical and electronic equipment. Instead, these products must
enter the recycling process.
Each individual EU member state has implemented the WEEE regulations into national law in slightly different ways. Please
follow your national law when you want to dispose of any electrical or electronic products.
More details can be obtained from your national WEEE recycling agency.
Germany / Deutschland
Die Europäische Union hat mit der WEEE Direktive umfassende Regelungen für die Verschrottung und das Recycling von
Elektro- und Elektronikprodukten geschaffen. Diese wurden von der Bundesregierung im Elektro- und Elektronikgerätegesetz –
ElektroG in deutsches Recht umgesetzt.
Dieses Gesetz verbietet vom 24.März 2006 an das Entsorgen von entsprechenden, auch alten, Elektro- und Elektronikgeräten
über die Hausmülltonne! Diese Geräte müssen den lokalen Sammelsystemen bzw. örtlichen Sammelstellen zugeführt werden!
Dort werden sie kostenlos entgegen genommen. Die Kosten für den weiteren Recyclingprozess übernimmt die Gesamtheit der
Gerätehersteller.
France
En 2006, l'union Européenne a introduit la nouvelle réglementation (WEEE) pour le recyclage de tout équipement électrique
et électronique.
Chaque Etat membre de l’ Union Européenne a mis en application la nouvelle réglementation WEEE de manières
légèrement différentes. Veuillez suivre le décret d’application correspondant à l’élimination des déchets électriques ou
électroniques de votre pays.

Nel 2006 l’unione europea ha introdotto regolamentazioni (WEEE) per la raccolta e il riciclo di apparecchi elettrici ed elettronici.
Non è più consentito semplicemente gettare queste apparecchiature, devono essere riciclate.
Ogni stato membro dell’ EU ha tramutato le direttive WEEE in leggi statali in varie misure. Fare riferimento alle leggi del proprio
Stato quando si dispone di un apparecchio elettrico o elettronico.
Per ulteriori dettagli fare riferimento alla direttiva WEEE sul riciclaggio del proprio Stato.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
