Disposal
Recycling and taking back of used equipment
Electrical and electronic devices may pose a risk to health and the environment if disposed
of incorrectly. They cannot therefore be disposed of as domestic waste according to WEEE
Directive 2012/19/EU (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive). Instead they
must be taken to designated collecting points or returned to the manufacturer.
The following symbol indicates the legal duty to dispose of electronic devices as stipulated.
They must undergo specified recycling processes (e. g., with respect to batteries or circuit
boards) which enable safe, environmentally compatible re-use or separate disposal of
different device elements.
The return of used devices is regulated differently in different places. Find out from your
local council about the return conditions for commercially used electronic devices. The
device, including rechargeable battery, contains no toxic substances requiring separate
identification for disposal such as mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb) or chrome 6 (e. g.,
in plated parts or circuit boards).
