Waste management:
- Throw all packaging in the recycling containers provided for this.
- Once a piece of equipment has completely stopped working, find out about the relevant
recycling regulations from your nearest recycling centre or from your dealer.
- Make sure you follow the relevant local laws when you scrap it.
- Some onboard equipment can have a toxic effect on the environment and on human health,
caused by the specific substances they contain: Do not throw any equipment in household
waste containers and absolutely not in the sea.
- Dead batteries are toxic to health and to the environment. So, batteries must not be put in
with household waste, but must be recycled separately. Contact the harbour master or a
specialist company about recycling them.
- Make sure you know the local enviromental regulations and follow the
codes of best practice.
- Do not pump out the toilets or the contents of the black water tank near the
coast or in areas where it's forbidden. Use the pump-out facilities available in
ports or marinas to empty the contents of the black water tank before leaving
port.
- Make sure you know the international regulations to prevent pollution in the
marine environment (Convention MARPOL) and follow these as much as
possible.
