Disposal
Electrical and electronic equipment may pose health and environmental risks if disposed of
improperly. For this reason, it may not be disposed of as general household trash according to
the WEEE directive 2012/19/EU (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive), but
rather must be handed over separately to designated collection points or sent back to the
manufacturer.
The following symbol on the device indicates the legal obligation to dispose of electronic
equipment at a separate disposal facility.
It be subjected to predefined recycling processes (e.g. with respect to the batteries or circuit
boards), which make a safe, environmentally-friendly recycling or the separate disposal of
different equipment components possible.
The return of old equipment is regulated differently by region. Check with the responsible public
body about the redemption conditions for commercially used electronic devices. The device and
also the battery do not contain any substances that are hazardous to health and that must be
labeled separately with respect to disposal, such as mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb) or
hexavalent chromium (e.g. in galvanized parts or circuit boards).
