Taking the Product Back and Recycling
The European Union has passed a directive called Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment, or WEEE for short, to ensure that systems are setup throughout the EU for
the collection, treating and recycling of electronic waste. This ensures that the devices
are recycled in a resource-saving way representing no danger to health or the
environment.

The WEEE symbol (see Fig 2) on the product or its packaging shows that the product
must not be disposed of as residual garbage. The user is obliged to collect the old
devices separately and return them to the WEEE take-back system for recycling. The
WEEE directive concerns all ETAS devices but not external cables or batteries. For more
