Recycling
In Germany and many other countries (see www.minebea-intec.
com,
> Services > Downloads for details), Minebea Intec or the orga-
nization contracted by us takes care of the return and legally
compliant disposal of its electrical and electronic equipment
on its own.
In countries that are not members of the European Economic
Area (EEA) or where no Minebea Intec subsidiaries or dealerships
are located, please contact your local authorities or a commercial
disposal operator.
These products may not be placed with the household waste
or brought to collection centers run by local public disposal
operations – not even by small commercial operators.
For disposal in Germany and in the other member nations
of the European Economic Area (EEA), please contact our service
technicians on location or our Service Center in Bovenden,

ies should be removed and disposed of in local collection boxes.

hazardous materials (ABC contamination) – either for repair or
disposal.

Internet website (www.minebea-intec.com) for comprehensive

plan to send your equipment in for repairs.
If you no longer need the packaging after successful installation
of the equipment, you should return it for recycling. The pack-
