ment by GIGABYTE.
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	 requirement.	 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.
