6. Disposal
The packaging should
be disposed of at local
recycling points.
Should you need to dis-
pose of the equipment it-
self, never throw it away
in
normal
domestic
waste. Local regulations
for the disposal of elec-
trical equipment will ap-
ply.
If Frank-Hertz tubes are
to be disposed of, local
regulations applying to
the disposal of mercury
must be followed.
