Environment - 97E NVIRONMENTO UR COMMITMENT TO ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTIONEnvironment has been at the heart of our products.Packard Bell is committed to limit the environmental impact of its products duringproduct lifecycle.Starting at design phase, with a very strict procurement policy, maximum attentionis given to electronic components in order to limit their weight in heavy metals suchas lead, cadmium, chromium, mercury, etc. Suppliers are asked, for each part of anyproduct, to respect all regulations.As far as end-of-life products are concerned, measures have been taken to anticipateand facilitate the recycling of all our products. Thus, all plastic parts heavier than 25grams used in Packard Bell products are labelled ISO 11469. This label allows a quickrecognition of the material and eases its valorisation. Likewise, desktop computersare designed to be easily dismantled, with screws being replaced by clips.P RODUCT DISPOSALThe 2002/96/EC Directive, known as Waste Electrical and ElectronicEquipment (WEEE) Directive, requires that used electrical andelectronic products must be disposed of separately from normalhousehold waste in order to promote reuse, recycling and other formsof recovery and to reduce the quantity of waste to be eliminated witha view to reducing landfill and incineration. The crossed-out dustbinlogo is there to remind you that these products must be sortedseparately for disposal. These rules concern all Packard Bell products and also allaccessories, such as keyboard, mouse, speakers, remote control, etc. When you haveto dispose of such products, make sure that they are correctly recycled by checkingwith your local authority, or by returning your old equipment to your retailer if youare replacing it.
