Information on appropriate conduct at disposal of electrical and electronic equipment
The “crossed-out wheeled bin” symbol placed on our products informs that it is forbidden to throw away unusable electrical and electronic equipment together with household waste.
The appropriate conduct at the necessity of disposal or recycling of equipment or components means their return to a collection facility where they will be received free of charge.
Appropriate disposal of equipment allows for preservation of the Earth’s natural resources for longer and prevents degradation of the natural environment. The information on equipment collection facilities is issued by the competent local authorities. Inappropriate waste disposal carries penalties provided for by the local law in force.
Environmental education
From now on, you should never put any batteries in a waste bin!
All batteries and accumulators left in a bin, in the forest or in the meadow pose a threat to the environment. One silver button battery may contaminate 1 m3 of soil or poison 400 litres of water and produce considerable ecological changes in them.
After using each battery or accumulator, throw them away in a special container marked “WASTE BATTERIES”.
If you decide to collect used batteries and take them to one of selective-collection facilities, you protect the natural environment for you and for future generations.
Remember that your old damaged equipment does not have to be taken to a landfill site. Return it to a waste equipment collection facility.
