WEEE Notice

The Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic 

Equipment (WEEE), which entered into force as European 

law on 13th February 2003, resulted in a major change in 

the treatment of electrical equipment at end-of-life.
The purpose of this Directive is, as a first priority, the 

prevention of WEEE, and in addition, to promote the reuse, 

recycling and other forms of recovery of such wastes so 

as to reduce disposal. 

The WEEE logo on the product or on its box indicating 

collection for electrical and electronic equipment consists 

of the crossed-out wheeled bin, as shown below.

This product must not be disposed of or dumped with your 

other household waste. You are liable to dispose of all your 

electronic or electrical waste equipment by relocating 

over to the specified collection point for recycling of such 

hazardous waste. Isolated collection and proper recovery 

of your electronic and electrical waste equipment at the 

time of disposal will allow us to help conserving natural 

resources. Moreover, proper recycling of the electronic 

and electrical waste equipment will ensure safety of 

human health and environment. For more information 

about electronic and electrical waste equipment disposal, 

recovery, and collection points, please contact your local 

city center, household waste disposal service, shop from 

where you purchased the equipment, or manufacturer of 

the equipment.

For Products That Include Batteries

EU Batteries Directive 2006/66/EC

A new battery directive 2006/66/EC on Battery and 

Accumulator replacing directive entered into force on the 

26th September 2008. The directive applies to all types 

of batteries and accumulators (AA, AAA, button cells, lead 

acid, rechargeable packs) including those incorporated 

into appliances except for military, medical and power 

tool applications.
The directive sets out rules for collection, treatment, 

recycling and disposal of batteries, and aims to 

prohibit certain hazardous substances and to improve 

environmental performance of batteries and all operators 

in the supply chain.

Instructions for Users on Re-

moval, Recycling and Disposal 

of Used Batteries

To remove the batteries from your equipment or remote 

control, reverse the procedure described in the owner’s 

manual for inserting batteries.

For products with a built-in battery that lasts for the 

lifetime of the product, removal may not be possible 

for the user. In this case, recycling or recovery centers 

handle the dismantling of the product and the removal 

of the battery. If, for any reason, it becomes necessary to 

replace such a battery, this procedure must be performed 

by authorized service centers.
In the European Union and other locations, it is illegal to 

dispose of any battery with household trash. All batteries 

must be disposed of in an environmentally sound 

manner. Contact your local waste-management officials 

for information regarding the environmentally sound 

collection, recycling and disposal of used batteries.

WARNING:

 Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly 

replaced. To reduce risk of fire or burns, don’t 

disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, 

expose to temperature above 60°C (140°F), or dispose 

of in fire or water. Replace only with specified batteries. 
The symbol indicating ‘separate collection’ for all batteries 

and accumulators shall be the crossed-out wheeled bin 

shown below:

In case of batteries, accumulators and button cells 

containing more than 0.0005 % mercury, more than 0.002 

% cadmium or more than 0.004 % lead, shall be marked
