The 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:
