• The equipment that you bought requires the extraction and use of natural resources for its production. It
may content hazardous substances for the health and the environment.
In order to avoid the dissemination of those substances in our environment and to diminish the pressure
on the natural resources, we encourage you to use the appropriate take-back system. Those systems
will re-use or recycle most of the materials of your end life equipment in a sound way.
If you need more information on the collection, re-use and recycling systems, please contact your local
or regional waste administration.
