Fire-Extinguishing Materials To Be Used - SICE S 65 Manuel D'instructions

Electrical and electronic equipment must never be disposed of in the usual municipal waste
but must be separately collected for their proper treatment.
The crossed-out bin symbol, placed on the product and on this page, reminds the user that
the product must be disposed of properly at the end of its life.
In this way it is possible to prevent that a non specific treatment of the substances contained
in these products, or their improper use, or improper use of their parts may be hazardous to
the environment or to human health. Furthermore, this helps to recover, recycle and reuse
many of the materials contained in these products.
Electrical and electronic manufacturers and distributors set up proper collection and treat-
ment systems for these products for this purpose.
Contact your local distributor to obtain information on the collection procedures at the end
of the life of your product.
When purchasing this product, your distributor will also inform you of the possibility to return
another end-of-life piece of equipment free of charge as long as it is of equivalent type and
had the same functions as the purchased product.
Any disposal of the product performed in a different way from that described above will be
liable to the penalties provided for by the national regulations in force in the country where
the product is disposed of.
Further measures for environmental protection are recommended: recycling of the internal
and external packaging of the product and proper disposal of used batteries (only if con-
tained in the product).
Your help is crucial in reducing the amount of natural resources used for manufacturing
electrical and electronic equipment, minimise the use of landfills for product disposal and
improve the quality of life, preventing potentially hazardous substances from being released
in the environment.
