Lenovo electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) may contain parts and components, which at the end of life might qualify as hazardous waste. EEE and waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) can be delivered free of charge to the place of sale or any distributor that sells electrical and electronic equipment of the same nature and function as the used EEE or WEEE.
Before placing electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) in the waste collection stream or waste collection facilities, the end user of equipment containing batteries and/or accumulators must remove those batteries and accumulators for separate collection.
