7.2
Indications for special waste
Special waste is that deriving from industrial processes as well as from materials of dismantled
equipment and deteriorated and obsolete machinery.
The special (also toxic and harmful) waste producers shall provide for its disposal directly or
through qualified, authorised companies or bodies, or shall deliver them to public service after
having made an agreement.
When disposing of special waste, check with the relevant local government authority for any
available information regarding such waste disposal in your region.
WARNING!
Any unauthorised disposal by the owner of a product is followed by the application of the sanctions
due to the regulations in force.
WARNING!
If there is no symbol of the crossed dustbin on the machine, it means that its Manufacturer is not in
charge of its disposal. In this case the regulations in force about waste disposal apply.
In compliance with 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and 2003/108/EC Directives about the reduction of dangerous
substances in the production of electric and electronic equipment, as well as about the waste disposal, the
following procedures have to be carried out:
The symbol of the crossed dustbin, means that the product has to be collected, at the
end of its working life, separately from the other waste. Therefore, the end-user will
have to take it to a separate collection area for electric and electro-technical waste or
give it back to the dealer when buying a new product of equivalent kind, in ratio one to
one. The adequate separate collection and the following processing and eco-friendly
disposal avoid negative effects on the health and the environment and allow recycling
the materials the products are made of. Any unauthorised disposal, personally carried
out by the end-user, would cause the application of sanctions, according to the local
Laws.
