SPECIAL DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR
CONSUMERS IN GERMANY
Dispose of your old appliances properly. This ensures that WEEE is recycled
in an environmentally sound manner and that negative impacts on the
environment and human health are avoided. The following rules must be
observed during disposal:
• Every consumer is legally obliged to dispose of electrical
and electronic equipment (waste equipment) as well as
batteries and accumulators separately from household
waste. You can recognise the corresponding waste equip-
ment by the following symbol of the crossed-out waste
bin (WEEE symbol).
• You must separate used batteries and accumulators that are not
enclosed in the old appliance, as well as lamps that can be removed
from the old appliance without destroying it, from the old appliance
without destroying it before handing it in at a disposal point.
• Certain lamps and bulbs also fall under the Electrical and Electronic
Equipment Act and must therefore be treated as old equipment.
Incandescent bulbs and halogen lamps are excluded. Please dispose of
light bulbs and halogen lamps with your household waste unless they
bear the WEEE symbol.
• Each consumer is responsible for deleting personal data from the
electrical or electronic equipment.
The distributors' obligation regarding return of goods
Distributors with a sales area for EEE of at least 400 square metres and
distributors of food with a total sales area of at least 800 square metres
who offer and make available EEE on the market several times in a calendar
year or on a permanent basis are obliged,
1 when supplying a new EEE to an end-user, to take back free of charge at the
place of supply or in the immediate vicinity thereof an old EEE of the end-user
of the same type which fulfils substantially the same functions as the new EEE;
and
2 to take back, free of charge, at the request of the end-user, WEEE that
does not exceed 25 centimetres in any external dimension in the retail
outlet or in the immediate vicinity thereof; the take-back may not be
linked to the purchase of an EEE and is limited to three WEEEs per type
of equipment.
