Enactment of Directive 2012/19/EU governing electrical and electronic waste (WEEE)
The barred bin symbol on the appliance and its packaging indicates that the product
must be scrapped separately from other waste at the end of its service life. The user must
therefore hand the equipment over to a sorted waste disposal facility for electro-technical and
electronic equipment at the end of its service life. Alternatively, he may return the equipment to the
retailer at the time of purchase of a new equivalent type of appliance.
Electronic equipment of size less than 25 cm can be handed over to any electronics equipment
retailer whose sales area is at least 400 m² for disposal free of charge and without any obligation
to purchase new product.
