CAUTION
Handling of the electrical or electronic device at the end of its service life (applicable in all European Union countries and
in other European systems with separate collection systems)
More specifically, consumers must not dispose of WEEE as municipal waste, but must dispose of this type of waste separately,
in one of two possible ways:
• By taking it to municipal collection centres (also called eco-collection centres or recycling facilities), directly or through the
collection services of municipal companies, where available.
• By taking it to shops selling new electrical and electronic equipment.
Very small WEEE items (with the longest side less than 25 cm) my be deposited here free of charge, while larger WEEE items
may be deposited on a 1-for-1 basis, i.e. by depositing an old product when purchasing a new one with the same functions.
Moreover, the 1-on-1 mode is always guaranteed when the consumer purchases a new EEE, regardless of the size of the
WEEE.
In the event of unlawful disposal of electrical and electronic equipment, specific sanctions may be applied by the laws govern-
ing the protection of the environment.
If the WEEE contains batteries or accumulators, they must be removed and subjected to specific separate collection.
CAUTION
Handling of spent batteries (applicable in all European Union countries and in other European systems with separate
collection systems)
Deliver the product at the end of its service life to collection centres suitable for the disposal of electrical and electronic
equipment: this ensures that the battery inside it is also treated correctly.
For more detailed information about disposal of the dead battery, contact the local waste disposal service or the shop where
it was purchased.
In any case, disposal must be carried out in accordance with the legislation in force in the country of purchase.

This symbol on the product or packaging indicates that the battery pack should not be
treated as normal household waste. On some types of batteries, this symbol may be
used in combination with a chemical symbol.
The chemical symbols for mercury (Hg) or lead (Pb) are added if the battery contains
more than 0.0005% mercury or 0.004% lead.
By ensuring that the batteries are disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potential
negative consequences for the environment and human health, which may otherwise
be caused by inappropriate disposal. Recycling materials will help to conserve natural
resources. In the case of products which, for safety, performance or data protection
purposes require a fixed connection to an internal battery, this should only be replaced
by qualified service personnel.
