3-3 EUROPEAN DIRECTIVE ON WASTE ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC

EQUIPMENT (WEEE)

In the context of sustainable development, the reduction of wastes to be eliminated by reusing, recycling,
composting and energy recovery is strongly advised.
In order to comply with this directive which is applicable to EEEs sold after 13/08/2005, your recorder will
be taken back free of charge and recycled by the distributor of the EEE within the limits of the quantity and
types of equipment bought from them. These appliances which contain substances potentially dangerous
to human health and the environment will be recycled.

3-4 DIRECTIVE ON THE RESTRICTION OF USE OF CERTAIN HAZARDOUS

SUBSTANCES IN ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT (ROHS)

Your recorder along with the batteries supplied comply with the directive relating to the RoHS – dangerous
materials such as lead, mercury or cadmium are not used. This avoids environmental hazards and any
risks to the health of personnel at the recycling centres. The batteries of the remote control can be
removed simply.
Note: When the batteries of the remote control are worn out, please dispose of them at a collection point
and not with household waste.

3-5 ELECTRICAL CONSUMPTION OF THE RECORDER

To reduce the consumption of your recorder, you are recommended to place it in standby mode when not
in use. We recommend that you turn off the recorder or unplug it from the mains if you will not be using it
for a prolonged period of time.
