The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) mark applies only to countries within
the European Union (EU) and Norway. Appliances are labeled in accordance with European
Directive 2002/96/EC concerning waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). The
Directive determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances as
applicable throughout the European Union. This label is applied to various products to indicate
that the product is not to be thrown away, but rather reclaimed upon end of life per this
Directive.
Users of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) with the WEEE marking per Annex IV of the
WEEE Directive must not dispose of end of life EEE as unsorted municipal waste, but use the
collection framework available to them for the return, recycle, recovery of WEEE and minimize
any potential effects of EEE on the environment and human health due to the presence of
hazardous substances. For additional WEEE information go to:
