The 2002/96/EC Directive, known as Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)
Directive, requires that used electrical and electronic products must be disposed of separately
from normal household waste in order to promote reuse, recycling and other forms of recovery
and to reduce the quantity of waste to be eliminated with a view to reducing landfill and incin-
eration.
The crossed-out dustbin logo is there to remind you that these products must be sorted sepa-
rately for disposal. These rules concern all your Packard Bell products (computer, monitor, GPS, MP3 player,
external hard drive) and also all accessories, such as keyboard, mouse, speakers, remote control, etc. When
you have to dispose of such products, make sure that they are correctly recycled by checking with your local
authority, or by returning the old equipment to your retailer when you replace it. For information, visit
