Disposal
Dispose of the packaging material in an environmentally friendly manner so that it can
be recycled.
The adjacent symbol (crossed-out bin underlined) means that used devices should not
be disposed of in the domestic waste, but should instead be taken to special collection
and return systems.
Owners of used devices from private households can take them free of charge to the
collection points of the public waste disposal authorities or the disposal points which
are set up by manufacturers and distributors under the Electrical Equipment Act so that
they can be disposed of in an environmentally friendly way and valuable raw materials
can be recovered. If they are not disposed of properly, toxic ingredients may escape into
the environment and cause harm to the health of humans, animals and plants. Businesses
which market electrical and electronic devices are also obliged to take back used devices.
Waste prevention makes an even more valuable contribution to protecting the
environment. This means if possible, as well as continuing to use or repair a device
yourself, passing it on to another user also represents an ecologically bene昀椀cial
alternative to disposal.
