The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive
(WEEE Directive) is the European community directive on
waste electrical and electronic equipment, which became
European law in February 2003. The main purpose of this
directive is to prevent electronic waste. Recycling and other forms
of waste recovery should be encouraged to reduce waste. The symbol
(trash can) on the product and on the packing means that used
electrical and electronic products should not be disposed of with
general household waste. It is your responsibility to dispose of all
your electronic or electrical waste at designated collection points.
Disposing of this product correctly will help to save valuable
resources and it is a significant contribution to protect our
environment as well as human health. For more information
about the correct disposal of electrical and electronic equipment,
recycling and collection points please contact your local authorities,
waste management companies, your retailer or the manufacturer
of this device.
Batteries are marked with the symbol of a crossed
out bin. This symbol indicates that empty batteries
or accumulators which can no longer be charged
should not be disposed of with household waste.
Waste batteries may contain harmful substances that can
cause damage to health and to the environment. Please
use the return and collection systems available in your
country for the disposal of the waste batteries.
