8. Recycling Information
1.
Based on the objectives of environmental policy according to the European Community (EC)
directives of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)
and improve the quality of the environment, protect human health and utilize natural resources
prudently and rationally, as an end user, you are kindly requested to do the following:
•
If the appliance has stopped working, even after troubleshooting, first check if it can be
repaired, before disposing it. Contact your distributor or supplier for further information on
possible repairs of your appliance, if in doubt.
•
If the appliance has reached its "End of Lifecycle" (EOL), in other words, the appliance is not
repairable or re-usable, do not dispose of the appliance as unsorted municipal waste. Instead,
ensure that it is collected separately from a recycling company.
Note: The disposal of electronic and electrical appliances in landfill sites or through incineration
creates a number of environmental problems. When obsolete materials are not recycled, raw materials
have to be processed for the production of new products. This represents significant loss of resources
as the energy, transport and environmental damage caused by these processes is considerable.
•
To help in the recovery and recycling process of this appliance, do not dismantle or break parts
off the appliance prior to collection. By removing parts off the appliance, you can reduce its
recyclability rate.
