Taking the Product Back and Recycling
The European Union has passed a directive called Waste Electrical and Elec-
tronic Equipment, or WEEE for short, to ensure that systems are setup through-
out the EU for the collection, treating and recycling of electronic waste.
This ensures that the devices are recycled in a resource-saving way represent-
ing no danger to health or the environment.

The user is obliged to collect the old devices separately and return them to the
WEEE take-back system for recycling. The WEEE directive concerns all ETAS
