The European Directive 2002/96 /EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment (WEEE) required that old household electrical appliances must not be
disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must
be collected separately in order to optimize the recovery and recycling of the
material they contain, and reduce the impact on human health and the
environment. The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the product remind you
of your obligations that when you dispose of the appliance, it must be separately
collected.
Besides that, waste batteries and/or accumulator must be removed prior to
delivery of WEEE, thought the separated collection channels provided for this
purpose (distributors and/or facilities from Local Authorities
)
