waste equipment by handing it over to a designated collection point. Failure
to follow this rule may be penalized in accordance with applicable regulations
on waste disposal. The separate collection and recycling of your waste
equipment at the time of disposal will help 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 for
recycling, please contact your local waste collection company. The
manufacturers and importers do not take responsibility for recycling,
treatment and ecological disposal, either directly or through a public
system.
