*Contact Aspect Medical Systems International B.V. for a Return Materials Authorization
(RMA) number. According to the WEEE Directive 2002/96/EC, all waste electrical and
electronic equipment (EEE) should be disposed of and collected separately and treated
according to the best available and environmentally friendly techniques.
EEE contains hazardous substances to the (human) environment but also EEE is a valuable
resource of new raw materials. Therefore it is important to collect WEEE separately from
other waste.
Aspect Medical products are subject to the Directive and we therefore urge you to dispose of the equipment
separately and make sure that it is treated at an electronics recycler. Please contact your municipality or the
nearest collection site and dispose of waste equipment there and make sure the discarded equipment does not
end-up in the ‘normal’ household waste.
