Appendix 153
WEEE Notice
The Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), which entered into force as European law
on 13th February 2003, resulted in a major change in the treatment of electrical equipment at end-of-life.
The purpose of this Directive is, as a first priority, the prevention of WEEE, and in addition, to promote the reuse,
recycling and other forms of recovery of such wastes so as to reduce disposal.
The WEEE logo (shown at the left) on the product or on its box indicates that this product must not
be disposed of or dumped with your other household waste. You are liable to dispose of all your
electronic or electrical waste equipment by relocating over to the specified collection point for
recycling of such hazardous waste. Isolated collection and proper recovery of your electronic and
electrical waste equipment at the time of disposal will allow us to help conserving natural resources.
Moreover, proper recycling of the electronic and electrical waste equipment will ensure safety
of human health and environment. For more information about electronic and electrical waste
equipment disposal, recovery, and collection points, please contact your local city center, household
waste disposal service, shop from where you purchased the equipment, or manufacturer of the
equipment.

equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
Never store or transport flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials in the same compartment of your
automobile as the device or any of its accessories, as possible sparking in the device could cause ignition or

automobile traffic or other pedestrian hazards.
