Appendix B - Environmental Information The equipment that you have purchased has required the extraction and use of natural resources for its production. The equipment may contain hazardous substances that could impact 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 systems. The take-back systems will reuse or recycle most of the materials of your end life equipment in a sound way. The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol invites you to use those systems. If you need more information on collection, reuse, and recycling systems, please contact your local or regional waste administration.
