18 Disposal
Dispose of the packaging materials properly, according to their type, such as paper or card-
board. Contact your local waste-disposal service or environmental authority for information
on the proper disposal.
Do not dispose of electronic devices in the household garbage!
As per Directive 2012/19/EC of the European Parliament on waste electrical and electronic
equipment and its adaptation into German law, used electronic devices must be collected
separately and recycled in an environmentally friendly manner.
Do not dispose of batteries and rechargeable batteries with the household waste. You are leg-
ally required to return used batteries and rechargeable batteries. After they are used, the bat-
teries can be returned free of charge to our point of sale or to a nearby location (for example,
retailers or municipal collecting points).
Batteries and rechargeable batteries are marked with a symbol of a crossed-out dustbin and
the chemical symbol of the pollutant. “Cd” stands for Cadmium, “Hg” stands for mercury and
“Pb” stands for lead.
