Gamko BV is attentive of the care of the environment and meets all requirements contained
in the Directive 2002/96/EC, known as WEEE, or the Directive referring to Waste from
Electrical and Electronic Equipment. This product conforms to the directive 2002/96/EC. At
the end of its useful life the product, which is to be processed separate from household
waste, should be transferred to a collection point of separate waste from electrical and
electronic equipment. The objective of the Directive 2002/96/EC is to combat the increasing
volumes of waste from electrical and electronic equipment, to increase the re-use of
electrical and electronic equipment ("EEE") and finally to limit the total volume of waste EEE
("WEEE") destined to be disposed of. The symbol of the crossed out waste bin indicates that
this product is subject to the application of this Directive. It is the responsibility of the user
to transfer the product to specialized collection points, as indicated by local legislation or
the distributor. In case of installation of a new product the old WEEE product can be
collected by the distributor at the same time. The manufacturer, importer and distributor
are responsible for the collection and processing of the waste which is collected directly or
through a collection point. The enclosed list contains Gamko BV distributors per country.
Any violation of the above mentioned Directive will result in sanction measures in all of
these countries. In general Gamko BV applies the "CECED interpretation" (European
Committee of Manufacturers of Electrical household appliances) according to which the
WEEE legislation is applicable to portable air conditioners, dehumidifiers, window- air
conditioning, split systems up to 12 kW, fridge's and plug in freezer compartments.
Nevertheless it is possible that in the various member countries differences in legislation
are detected. In case some products are not included on the list of WEEE products following
national legislation, the national legislation should be adhered to, the WEEE directives
applicable to products that are not included in the scope of these national legislations
should be omitted. The directive does not apply to products sold outside the European
Union. In case the product is to be sold outside the European Union, it is not necessary to
adhere to the WEEE directive however; the vendor/distributor has to guarantee that local
legislation is being observed. For further information please refer to the local authority for
waste collection, the vendor/ distributor/ installer who supplied the product or directly to
Gamko.
