Environmental information
WEEE 2002/96/EC is a European Directive that requires the proper disposal of electrical and electronic
equipment. These devices should be disposed of separately, not as unsorted municipal waste. To
dispose of your device, you should use appropriate collection, reuse and recycling systems available in
your region. The use of these collection, reuse and recycling systems is designed to reduce pressure
on natural resources and prevent hazardous substances from damaging the environment.
If you need information on these disposal systems, please contact your local waste administration. The
crossed-bin symbol invites you to use these disposal systems. If you require information on collection
and disposal of your ResMed device please contact your ResMed office, local distributor or go to
www.resmed.com/environment.
Servicing
The device is intended to provide safe and reliable operation when operated in accordance with the
