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:
