CARE GUIDE
WEEE (continued)
If you wish to return a Seek Thermal device for waste recovery, please contact Seek Thermal or an authorized dealer for further information.
Waste treatment on your own responsibility
If you do not return an “end-of-life” device to Seek Thermal, you must deliver it to a company specialized in waste recovery. Do not dispose of the device in a litter bin or
a public waste-disposal site.
Ecological background
It is well-known that WEEE pollutes the environment by releasing toxic products during decomposition. The aim of the European RoHS directive is to reduce the content
of toxic substances in electronic products in the future.
The intent of the WEEE directive is to enforce the recycling of WEEE. A controlled recycling of end-of-life products will thereby avoid negative impacts on the
environment.
