SCRAPPING OLD APPLIANCES

This appliance is marked according to the European directive 2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE).
WEEE contains both polluting substances (which can cause negative consequences for the environment) and basic
components (which can be re-used). It is important to have WEEE subjected to specific treatments, in order to remove and
dispose properly all pollutants, and recover and recycle all materials.
Individuals can play an important role in ensuring that WEEE does not become an environmental issue; it is essential to follow
some basic rules:
WEEE should not be treated as household waste.
WEEE should be handed over to the relevant collection points managed by the municipality or by registered companies. In
many countries, for large WEEE, home collection could be present.
In many countries, when you buy a new appliance, the old one may be returned to the retailer who has to collect it free of
charge on a one-to-one basis, as long as the equipment is of equivalent type and has the same functions as th e supplied
equipment.
