Within the European Union it is illegal to dispose of electric and
electronic waste as unsorted municipal waste. According to this,
all MAICO products sold after August 13, 2005, are marked with
a crossed-out wheeled bin. Within the limits of Article (9) of
DIRECTIVE 2002/96/EC on waste electrical and electronic
equipment (WEEE), MAICO has changed their sales policy. To
avoid additional distribution costs we assign the responsibility
for the proper collection and treatment according to legal
regulations to our customers.
Outside the European Union, local regulations should be
followed when disposing of the product after its useful life.
