5. Disposal instructions
In line with the European WEEE directive, electrical and electronic devices should
not be disposed of along with domestic waste. Their components have to be sep-
arately sent for recycling or disposal, because improper disposal of toxic and dan-
gerous 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 public collection points 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 de-
vices, you make an important contribution towards protecting our environment.
