Disposal of Old Devices
You no longer need your old device, or it has reached the end of its life? Here you can find all the important information for environmentally friendly disposal.
Crossed out “wheeled bin”
The European directive 2012 / 19 / CE on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimize the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.
What does this mean for you?
Please bring your old device to an appropriate collection point to ensure proper disposal.
