14. Disposal instructions
In line with the European WEEE directive, electrical and electronic products
should not be disposed of along with domestic waste. Their components have
to be separately sent for recycling or disposal, because improper disposal of
toxic and dangerous components may permanently damage the environment.
According to the electrical and electronic equipment act (ElektroG), you are
obliged (as a consumer) to return (free of charge) electrical and electronic devices
to the manufacturer, the point of sale or the public collection points set up for
this purpose at the end of their service life. The relevant local laws regulate the
details in this regard. The symbol displayed on the product, in the user manual
or/and on the packaging refers to these regulations.
With this manner of sorting, recycling and disposal of used products, you make
an important contribution towards protecting our environment. For information
on authorised safe assembly points in your area, please contact your local city or
municipal office.
