Disposal

MELAG devices are synonymous with high quality and a long life-span. When you eventually need to decommission your
MELAG device, the required disposal of the device can take place with MELAG in Berlin.
Dispose of accessories and consumption media which you no longer require in the appropriate manner. Comply with all
relevant disposal specification in terms of possibly contaminated waste.
The packaging protects the device against transport damage. The packaging materials have been selected for their envi-
ronmentally-friendly disposability and can be recycled. Returning the packaging to the material flow reduces the amount
of waste and saves raw materials.
MELAG draws the operator's attention to the fact that they are responsible for deleting personal data on the device to be
disposed of.
MELAG draws the operator's attention to the fact that they may be legally obliged (e.g. in Germany according to Elek-
troG) to remove used batteries and accumulators non-destructively before handing over the device, provided they are not
enclosed in the device.
