Product E.O.L (End of life) Information
This product required the extraction and use of natural resources. It may
contain substances that could be harmful to the environment or human health
if improperly handled at the product’s end of life. In order to avoid release
of such substances into the environment and to reduce the use of natural
resources, we encourage you to recycle the Inverter in an appropriate way
that will ensure most of the materials are reused or recycled appropriately.
DO NOT DISPOSE OF THIS PRODUCT WITH NORMAL GARBAGE
The easiest way to recycle the Inverter is to take the unit to a local
certified
e-waste (electronics
waste) recycling centre. Knowing for sure if your appliances are being recycled properly is tricky.
If you’re in doubt just ask. Recyclers that are certified should gladly show you their certification.
If the re-cycler is certified, chances are very high that they are recycling responsibly.
To find your local e-waste centre please contact your local municipality. The following website
also has information on local recycling centres:

manually and recycled responsibly. A Phillips screwdriver is required to disassemble the
Inverter. Note: the Inverter should only be disassembled at the end of its service life. Go Power!
