Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment 
Statement 
 
WEEE Directive 
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) complements 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.
