THE RBRC™ SEAL
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation)
Seal on the nickel-cadmium battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to
recycle the battery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been
paid by Black & Decker. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel-cadmium
batteries in the trash or municipal solid waste stream and the RBRC program
provides an environmentally conscious alternative.
RBRC in cooperation with Black & Decker and other battery users, has established
programs in the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickel-
cadmium batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by
returning the spent nickel-cadmium battery to an authorized Black & Decker service center
or to your local retailer for recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center for
information on where to drop off the spent battery, or call 1-800-8-BATTERY.

,
RESPECTER CE QUI SUIT
.
• Avant toute utilisation, s'assurer que tous ceux qui se servent de l'outil lisent et
comprennent toutes les mesures de sécurité et tout autre renseignement contenus dans le
présent guide.

des objets mis à la terre, comme des tuyaux, radiateurs, cuisinières, réfrigérateurs et autres
objets du genre. Prendre garde lorsqu'on perce, visse ou coupe des murs, des planchers,
des plafonds ou toute autre surface où on pourrait rencontrer des fils sous tension. NE PAS
TOUCHER AUX COMPOSANTS MÉTALLIQUES DE L'OUTIL. Saisir l'outil seulement par
sa poignée en plastique afin de prévenir les risques de secousses électriques.
