ECOLOGY – ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
The "crossed-out trash bin" symbol on electrical
equipment or packaging indicates that the device
cannot be treated as general household waste and
should not be disposed of into containers for such waste.
Obsolete or broken-down electrical device should be
delivered to special designated collection points, organized
by local public administration, whose purpose is to collect
recyclable electrical equipment.
This way, each household helps reduce possible negative effects
influencing natural environment and allows the reclaiming of
materials which the product is made of.
