Scrapping old appliances
This appliance is marked according to the European directive
2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE).
WEEE contains both polluting substances (which can cause negative
consequences for the environment) and basic components (which can
be re-used). It is important to have WEEE subjected to specific
treatments, in order to remove and dispose properly all pollutants, and
recover and recycle all materials.
Individuals can play an important role in ensuring that WEEE does not
become an environmental issue; it is essential to follow some basic
rules:
- WEEE should not be treated as household waste;
- WEEE should be handed over to the relevant collection points
managed by the municipality or by registered companies. In many
countries, for large WEEE, home collection could be present.
In many countries, when you buy a new appliance, the old one may be
returned to the retailer who has to collect it free of charge on a one-to-
one basis, as long as the equipment is of equivalent type and has the
same functions as the supplied equipment.
