Legal and Regulatory Information
RoHS Statement
The member states of the European Union approved directive 2002/95/EC, Restrictions of Hazardous
Substances (“RoHS directive”‘) that became valid on July 1, 2006. It states that all new electrical and electronic
equipment put on the market within the member states must not contain certain hazardous materials. The
XTM 3 Series complies with the European Union’s R0HS directive 2002/95/EC and similar regulations that may
be adopted by other countries for European Sales.
WEEE Statement
WEEE is a general set of requirements dictated in the EU Directive 2002/96/EC. This Directive mandated that
member EU countries enact regulations governing the Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE).
The Directive, and its individual transpositions into specific country laws and legislation, is aimed at the
reduction of WEEE through reuse, recovery, and recycling of WEEE.
WatchGuard is working in partnership with our European Union (EU) distribution partners to ensure that our
products are in compliance with the WEEE statutes, and that the recovery of our product per the specific EU
country legislative requirements is seamless for our product’s end users. If you have a WatchGuard product
that is at its end of life and needs to be disposed of, please contact WatchGuard Customer Care Department at:

WatchGuard is reasonably confident that our products do not contain any substances or hazardous materials
presently banned by any legislation, and do not present a risk due to hazardous materials. WEEE recovery
professionals should also note that these products do not have any materials that are of particular high value
in their individual form.
REACH Certificate of Compliance
The new EU chemicals policy REACH ( R egistration, E valuation, A uthorization and restriction of Ch emicals)
came into effect on June 1st 2007. REACH is Europe's new chemicals legislation, which is applicable in all 27
EU Member States as well as the EFTA European Economic Area (EEA). REACH creates a new system for
gathering information, assessing risks to human health and the environment, and authorizing or restricting
the marketing and use of chemicals produced or supplied in the EEA. REACH has an impact on EEA producers
and importers of finished products and users of chemicals in the course of industrial or professional activities.
WatchGuard supports the overall REACH objective of improving the protection of human health and the
environment and will meet all applicable REACH requirements. WatchGuard is strongly committed to working
with our customers and supply chain to define and implement the REACH requirements and ensure a smooth
transition to compliance.
One of the REACH requirements is that manufacturers and importers have the duty to register substances they
are producing or importing. In accordance with the regulations, the products of WatchGuard do not need to
be registered for the following reasons:
1. WatchGuard does not import more than 1 metric ton per year of a substance as defined by REACH.
2. WatchGuard products are non-chemical products that are not designed to release any substance
under normal and reasonably predictable application.
3. Our products do not contain the listed substances at more than 0.1% by weight of the whole
product/part.
