Appendix E. Important information for the European Directive 2002/96/EC EU Only The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (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: http://www.lenovo.com/lenovo/environment. Le marquage des déchets d’équipements électriques et électroniques (DEEE) s’applique uniquement aux pays de l’Union européenne (EU) et à la Norvège. Les appareils sont marqués conformément à la Directive 2002/96/CE du Conseil Européen relative aux déchets d’équipements électriques et électroniques (DEEE). Cette directive, applicable à l’ensemble des pays de l’Union européenne, concerne la collecte et le recyclage des appareils usagés. Ce marquage est apposé sur différents produits pour indiquer que ces derniers ne doivent pas être jetés, mais récupérés en fin de vie, conformément à cette directive. Les utilisateurs d’équipements électriques et électroniques portant le marquage DEEE, conformément à l’Annexe IV de la Directive DEEE, ne doivent pas mettre au rebut ces équipements comme des déchets municipaux non triés, mais ils doivent utiliser la structure de collecte mise à disposition des clients pour le retour, le recyclage et la récupération des déchets d’équipements électriques et électroniques, afin de réduire tout effet potentiel des équipements électriques et électroniques sur l’environnement et la santé en raison de la présence possible de substances dangereuses dans ces équipements.
