Appliance disposal

This appliance is marked in accordance with the European Directive 2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE).

WEEE contains both pollutants (which can have a negative impact on the environment) and raw materials (which can be reused).

Therefore, it is necessary to subject WEEE to appropriate processing operations in order to safely remove and dispose of pollutants and extract and recycle raw materials. Every citizen can play a decisive role in ensuring that WEEE does not become an environmental problem.

It is enough to follow a few simple rules:

• WEEE should never be disposed of in unsorted rubbish bins.
• WEEE must be delivered to waste collection centres (also called ecological islands, recycling plants, ecological platforms...) set up by the municipalities or urban hygiene companies; in many places, a home pick-up service for bulky WEEE is also provided.

In many countries, when buying a new appliance, one can hand over the WEEE to the shopkeeper, who is obliged to collect it free of charge ("one-for-one" collection) as long as the new appliance is of the same type and performs the same functions as the returned one.
