18.7 Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Waste
The European Union (EU) WEEE Directive (2012/19/EU) places an obligation on producers
(manufacturers, distributors and/or retailers) to take-back electronic products at the end of their
useful life. The WEEE Directive covers most Clear-Com products being sold into the EU as of
August 13, 2005. Manufacturers, distributors and retailers are obliged to finance the costs of
recovery from municipal collection points, reuse, and recycling of specified percentages per the
WEEE requirements.
Instructions for Disposal of WEEE by Users in the European Union
The symbol shown below is on the product or on its packaging which indicates that this product
was put on the market after August 13, 2005 and must not be disposed of with other waste.
Instead, it is the user’s responsibility to dispose of the user’s waste equipment by handing it over
to a designated collection point for the recycling of WEEE. The separate collection and recycling
of waste equipment at the time of disposal will help to conserve natural resources and ensure
that it is recycled in a manner that protects human health and the environment. For more
information about where you can drop off your waste equipment for recycling, please contact
your local authority, your household waste disposal service or the seller from whom you
purchased the product.
