Disposal
The disposal of the packaging and the parts used has to be done
according to the rules and regulations which are valid in the country
of installation. Should the product itself be disposed of, make
sure to observe the local rules and regulations..
Information for the Disposal of Electric and Electronic Instru-
ments within the European Union
The disposal of electrically operated instruments is settled within
the European Union by national regulations, which are based on
the EU-directive 2002/96EC about electric and electronic used-
instruments (WEEE). Thus, all instruments delivered after Au-
gust 13th 2005 must not disposed into the communal domestic
waste.
Since the regulations about disposal of waste might vary from
one country to the other within the European Community, we kind-
ly ask you to contact your supplier or dealer.
In Germany, this obligation for identification will be valid as of
March, 23rd 2006. As of this date, C. Gerhardt will take back all
instruments delivered after August, 13th, 2005 without charges
and will dispose of them according to the regulations, or Ger-
hardt will come to an agreement with the last user of the unit. For
all instruments delivered prior to August 13th, 2005 the last user
will be held responsible for the proper disposal. The only crucial
factor accepted, for the chronological placement, it the serial
number at the back of the instrument.
Ban on Materials according to ROHS Regulation 2002/95/EG
Ban on materials from the ROHS regulation 2002/95/EG is not
valid for the electro- and electronic instruments of category 8 and
9 and thus not for those instruments described in this instruction
manual. However, we want to draw your attention to the fact that
we feel obliged to observe the regulations for the RoHs for all our
products. Please be kind enough to contact us if you have any
further questions.
