DISPOSAL OF OLD ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
e European directive 2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances
must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream.
Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimize the
recovery and recycling of the materials they contain, and reduce the impact on
human health and the environment.
e crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the product reminds you of your
obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance, it must be separately
collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information
concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.
