Our Commitment to Preserving the EnvironmentIn	addition	 to	high-efficiency	 performance,	all	GIGABYTE	 motherboards	 fulfill	European	 Union	regulations 	for RoHS (Restriction of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment) and WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) environmental directives, as well as most major worldwide safety requirements. To prevent releases of harmful substances into the environment and to maximize the use of our natural resources, GIGABYTE provides the following information on how you can responsibly recycle or reuse most of the materials in your "end of life" product. 
Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive StatementGIGABYTE products have not intended to add and safe from hazardous substances (Cd, Pb, Hg, Cr+6, PBDE and PBB). The parts and components have been carefully selected to meet RoHS requi\
rement. Moreover, we at GIGABYTE are continuing our efforts to develop products that do not use internationally banned toxic c\
hemicals.
Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive StatementGIGABYTE	 will	fulfill	 the	national	 laws	as	interpreted	 from	the	2002/96/EC	 WEEE	(Waste	 Electrical	 and	Electronic 	Equipment)	 directive.	The	WEEE	 Directive	 specifies	 the	treatment,	 collection,	recycling	and	disposal	 of	electric	and electronic devices and their components. Under the Directive, used equipment must be marked, collected separately, and disposed of properly.
WEEE Symbol StatementThe symbol shown below is on the product or on its packaging, which indicates that this product must not be disposed of with other waste. Instead, the device should be taken to the waste collection centers for activation of the treatment, collection, recycling and disposal procedure. The separate collection and recycling of your waste equipment at the time of disposal will help to conserve na\
tural 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 equipment for recycling, please contact your local	 government	 office,	your	household	 waste	disposal	 service	or	where	 you	purchased	 the	product	 for	details	of environmentally safe recycling. ŠWhen your electrical or electronic equipment is no longer useful to you, "take it back" to your \
local or regional waste collection administration for recycling. ŠIf you need further assistance in recycling, reusing in your "end of life" product, you may contact us at the Customer Care number listed in your product's user's manual and we will be glad to help you with your effort.
Finally, we suggest that you practice other environmentally friendly actions by understanding and using the energy-saving features of this product (where applicable), recycling the inner and outer packaging (including shipping containers) this product was delivered in, and by disposing of\
 or recycling used batteries properly. With your help, we can reduce the amount of natural resources needed to produce electrical and electronic equipment,	 minimize	the	use	 of	landfills	 for	the	 disposal	 of	"end	 of	life"	 products,	 and	generally	 improve	our	quality of life by ensuring that potentially hazardous substances are not released into the environment and are disposed of properly.
