Information on Electrical and Electronic (Waste) Equipment
The following information is intended for private households that use electrical and/or electronic equipment. Please follow these important instructions to ensure that old equipment is disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner and to protect your own safety.
1. Information on the disposal of electrical and electronic equipment (including waste equipment) and the meaning of the symbol specified in Annex 3 of the ElektroG:
Owners of waste electrical and electronic equipment must ensure that it is collected separately from unsorted municipal waste. Waste electrical and electronic equipment must therefore not be disposed of as unsorted municipal waste and, in particular, must not be placed in household trash. Instead, this waste equipment must be collected separately and disposed of through local collection and return systems.
Owners of waste equipment must also remove any used batteries and accumulators that are not contained within the waste equipment before handing it over to a collection point. The latter does not apply if, pursuant to Section 14(5), sentences 2 and 3 of the ElektroG, the waste electrical and electronic equipment is separated from other waste electrical and electronic equipment by public waste management authorities as part of their opt-in scheme for the purpose of preparing it for reuse.
The symbol shown in Appendix 3 of the ElektroG helps owners identify old appliances that must be collected separately from unsorted municipal waste at the end of their useful life. The symbol for the separate collection of electrical and electronic equipment depicts a crossed-out wheeled trash can and is designed as follows:
2. Information on returning used equipment:
