Appendix E – WEEE Statement
Appendix E – Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment Statement
WEEE Directive
The WEEE directive places an obligation on EU-based manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and
importers to take-back electronics products at the end of their useful life. A sister Directive, ROHS
(Restriction of Hazardous Substances) complements the WEEE Directive by banning the presence of
specific hazardous substances in the products at the design phase. The WEEE Directive covers all
Multi-Tech products imported into the EU as of August 13, 2005. EU-based manufacturers,
distributors, retailers and importers are obliged to finance the costs of recovery from municipal
collection points, reuse, and recycling of specified percentages per the WEEE requirements.
Instructions for Disposal of WEEE by Users in the European Union
The symbol shown below is on the product or on its packaging, which indicates that this product must
not be disposed of with other waste. Instead, it is the user's responsibility to dispose of their waste
equipment by handing it over to a designated collection point for the recycling of waste electrical and
electronic equipment. The separate collection and recycling of your waste equipment at the time of
disposal will help to conserve natural resources and ensure that it is recycled in a manner that
protects human health and the environment. For more information about where you can drop off your
waste equipment for recycling, please contact your local city office, your household waste disposal
service or where you purchased the product.
