SCRAPPING OLD APPLIANCES
This appliance is marked according to the European directive 2012/19/EU on Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE).
WEEE contains both polluting substances (which can cause negative consequences for the
environment) and basic components (which can be re-used). It is important to have WEEE
subjected to specific treatments, in order to remove and dispose properly all pollutants, and
recover and recycle all materials.
Individuals can play an important role in ensuring that WEEE does not become an
environmental issue; it is essential to follow some basic rules:
-
WEEE should not be treated as household waste;
-
WEEE should be handed over to the relevant collection points managed by the municipality
or by registered companies. In many countries, for large WEEE, home collection could
be present.
In many countries, when you buy a new appliance, the old one may be returned to the
retailer who has to collect it free of charge on a one-to-one basis, as long as the equipment
is of equivalent type and has the same functions as the supplied equipment.
