Gamko BV is attentive of the care of the environment and meets all requirements
contained in the Directive 2002/96/EC, known as WEEE, or the Directive referring to
Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment. This product conforms to the directive
2002/96/EC. At the end of its useful life the product, which is to be processed separate
from household waste, should be transferred to a collection point of separate waste from
electrical and electronic equipment. The objective of the Directive 2002/96/EC is to
combat the increasing volumes of waste from electrical and electronic equipment, to
increase the re-use of electrical and electronic equipment ("EEE") and finally to limit the
total volume of waste EEE ("WEEE") destined to be disposed of. The symbol of the
crossed out waste bin indicates that this product is subject to the application of this
Directive. It is the responsibility of the user to transfer the product to specialized
collection points, as indicated by local legislation or the distributor. In case of installation
of a new product the old WEEE product can be collected by the distributor at the same
time. The manufacturer, importer and distributor are responsible for the collection and
processing of the waste which is collected directly or through a collection point. The
enclosed list contains Gamko BV distributors per country. Any violation of the above
mentioned Directive will result in sanction measures in all of these countries. In general
Gamko BV applies the "CECED interpretation" (European Committee of Manufacturers of
Electrical household appliances) according to which the WEEE legislation is applicable to
portable air conditioners, dehumidifiers, window- air conditioning, split systems up to 12
kW, fridge's and plug in freezer compartments. Nevertheless it is possible that in the
various member countries differences in legislation are detected. In case some products
are not included on the list of WEEE products following national legislation, the national
legislation should be adhered to, the WEEE directives applicable to products that are not
included in the scope of these national legislations should be omitted. The directive does
not apply to products sold outside the European Union. In case the product is to be sold
outside the European Union, it is not necessary to adhere to the WEEE directive however;
the vendor/distributor has to guarantee that local legislation is being observed. For
further information please refer to the local authority for waste collection, the vendor/
.
distributor/ installer who supplied the product or directly to Gamko
