Our Commitment to Preserving the Environment
In addition to high-efficiency performance, all GIGABYTE motherboards fulfill European Union regula-
tions for RoHS (Restriction of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment)
and WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) environmental directives, as well as most
major worldwide safety requirements. To prevent releases of harmful substances into the environment
and to maximize the use of our natural resources, GIGABYTE provides the following information on
how you can responsibly recycle or reuse most of the materials in your "end of life" product.
Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive Statement

PBDE and PBB). The parts and components have been carefully selected to meet RoHS requirement.
Moreover, we at GIGABYTE are continuing our efforts to develop products that do not use internationally
banned toxic chemicals.
Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive Statement
GIGABYTE will fulfill the national laws as interpreted from the 2002/96/EC WEEE (Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment) directive. The WEEE Directive specifies the treatment, collection, recycling and
disposal of electric and electronic devices and their components. Under the Directive, used equipment
must be marked, collected separately, and disposed of properly.
WEEE Symbol Statement
The symbol shown below is on the product or on its packaging, which indicates that this
product must not be disposed of with other waste. Instead, the device should be taken to
the waste collection centers for activation of the treatment, collection, recycling and
disposal procedure. The separate collection and recycling of your waste equipment at the
time of disposal will help to conserve natural resources and ensure that it is recycled in a
manner that protects human health and the environment. For more information about where you can
drop off your waste equipment for recycling, please contact your local government office, your
household waste disposal service or where you purchased the product for details of environmentally
safe recycling.
When your electrical or electronic equipment is no longer useful to you, "take it back" to your local
or regional waste collection administration for recycling.
If you need further assistance in recycling, reusing in your "end of life" product, you may contact us
at the Customer Care number listed in your product's user's manual and we will be glad to help you
