Disposal of equipment no longer used
According to European Directive
2012/19/EU on the management of waste
electrical
and electronic equipment
(WEEE), home electrical appliances should
not be put into the normal systems for
disposal of solid urban waste.
Outdated appliances should be collected
separately to optimize component material
recovery and re-cycling rates and to
prevent potential harm to human health
and the environment. The symbol of a
rubbish container superimposed by a
diagonal cross should be put on all such
products to remind people of their
obligation to have such items collected
separately.
Consumers should contact their local
authorities or point of sale and request
information on the appropriate places to
leave their old home electrical appliances.
Before disposing of your appliance, render
it non-usable by pulling out the power
cable, cutting this and disposing of it.
