Warranty - Athena GET LC-GPA Bedienungsanleitung

F. DISPOSAL
Pursuant to art. 26 of Legislative Decree no. 49 of 14 March 2014,
"Implementation of Directive 2012/19/EU on waste electrical and
electronic equipment (WEEE)".
The crossed-out wheelie bin symbol displayed on a product or its packaging
indicates that when the equipment reaches the end of its life cycle it must be
disposed of separately from other waste for purposes of treatment and recycling.
Once such products reach the end of their life cycle, users may dispose of them free of
charge at special municipal centres for the collection of waste electrical and electronic
equipment, or return them to the distributor under one of the following arrangements:
- very small products, i.e., equipment with no external dimension exceeding 25
cm, may be returned with no obligation to buy to distributors whose sales areas
dedicated to electrical and electronic equipment exceed 400 m2. Distributors with
Smaller sales areas are not obliged to participate in this scheme.
- products of dimensions greater than 25 cm may be returned to distributors
under a "one for one" arrangement, i.e. the distributor is only obliged to receive
the product in return for the purchase of a new, equivalent product, with one new
product being purchased for every waste product returned.
The separate collection and subsequent processing of products for purposes of
recycling, treatment and environmentally sound disposal helps avoid potentially
harmful effects on the environment and human health, and facilitates the reuse/
recycling of the materials contained in the products.
Users abusively disposing of products are subject to the penalties applicable under
the respective legislation.
