Reduction or avoidance of waste from reusable raw
materials
Do not dispose of any components in the domestic
waste. Take them instead to the appropriate collection
points for recycling.
We would like to point out the need for compliance with
the WEEE Directive 2012/19/EU, the aim and purpose of
which is to reduce or avoid waste from recyclable raw
materials.
This directive requires member states of the EU to
increase the collection rate of electronic waste so that it
can be recycled.
Recycle the dismantled components:
– Scrap metals.
– Electrical waste and electronic components must be
recycled.
– Recycle plastic elements.
– Dispose of all other components in line with their
material characteristics.
– Hand in batteries at communal collection points or
dispose of them through a specialist.
