Recycling Thermostat
If this thermostat REPLACES a thermostat that contains mercury,
DO NOT discard the old thermostat in the regular trash. Mercury
is harmful to humans and the environment. For this reason, do
not open, break, or crush the mercury cell. If mercury leaks from
a damaged cell, DO NOT touch or handle mercury with bare
hands. Use protective, non-absorbent gloves to place mercury
into a sealable container. Fill the container with sand or another
absorbent material and seal the container completely.
Return the mercury or mercury products, in a sealed container, to
Invensys Controls Americas or a local recycling center for proper
disposal. If you have any questions, call Robertshaw technical
support at 1-800-445-8299.
