Product disposal information 
 
For countries in the European Union 
 
The symbol depicted here has been affixed to your product in order to inform you 
that electrical and electronic products should never be disposed of as municipal 
waste. 
 
Electrical and electronic products including the cables, plugs and accessories 
should be disposed of separately in order to allow proper treatment, recovery and 
recycling. These products should be taken to a designated facility where the best 
available treatment, recovery and recycling techniques are available. Separate 
disposal has significant advantages: valuable materials can be re-used and it 
prevents the dispersion of unwanted substances into the municipal waste stream. 
This contributes to the protection of human health and the environment. 
 
Please be informed that a fine may be imposed for illegal disposal of electrical and 
electronic products via the general municipal waste stream. 
In order to facilitate separate disposal and environmentally sound recycling NEC Philips Unified 
Solutions has made arrangements for local collection and recycling in all member states of the 
European Union. In case your electrical and electronic products need to be disposed of please refer to 
the contractual agreements that your company has made upon acquisition of these products. Should 
this information not be available, please contact the local NEC Philips organization or contact us at : 
www.nec-philips.com/weee 
 
 
For countries outside the European Union
Disposal of electrical and electronic products in countries outside the European Union should be done 
in line with the local regulations. If no arrangement has been made with NEC Philips Unified Solutions 
or your supplier, please contact the local authorities for further information.
