The WEEE directive places an obligation on EU-based manufacturers, 
distributors, retailers and importers to take-back electronics products at the 
end of their useful life. A sister Directive, ROHS (Restriction of Hazardous 
Substances) compliments the WEEE Directive by banning the presence of 
specific hazardous substances in the products at the design phase. The 
WEEE Directive covers all Multi-Tech products imported into the EU as of 
August 13, 2005. EU-based manufacturers, distributors, retailers and 
importers are obliged to finance the costs of recovery from municipal 
collection points, reuse, and recycling of specified percentages per the WEEE 
requirements. 
 
Instructions for Disposal of WEEE by Users in the European Union 
The symbol shown below is on the product or on its packaging, which 
indicates that this product must not be disposed of with other waste. Instead, 
it is the user’s responsibility to dispose of their waste equipment by handing it 
over to a designated collection point for the recycling of waste electrical and 
electronic equipment. The separate collection and recycling of your waste 
equipment at the time of disposal will help to conserve natural resources and 
ensure that it is recycled in a manner that protects human health and the 
environment. For more information about where you can drop off your waste 
equipment for recycling, please contact your local city office, your household 
waste disposal service or where you purchased the product.
