2.12 Battery arrangement
According to the "DIRECTIVE 2006/66/EC OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIA-
MENT AND COUNCIL as of 6th September 2006 on batteries and
rechargeable batteries and on old batteries and old rechargeable bat-
teries and for the annulment of Directive 91/157/EEC“ and article 1, §18
and article 2 of the German Act on the re-definition of the wast legisla-
tion on the product responsibility for batteries and rechargeable bat-
teries (BattG) as of 25.06.2009, we are legally obliged as the manufac-
turer to inform you as the consumer about the following:
The Easy GTM product we sell contains a lithium battery, type AA, 1.5V,
that can be discharged once.
When the battery is flat, it may not be disposed of along with household
waste. Old batteries may contain harmful substances that can pollute
the environment or damage your health. Please deliver the batteries to
the regional recycling point/collection point. Please only place dis-
charged/flat batteries in the containers intended for this purpose. Cover
the terminals of lithium batteries with adhesive tape first.
All batteries and rechargeable batteries are reused. Valuable substances,
such as zinc, iron and nickel can thus be recycled. Battery recycling is one
of the easiest environmental protection measures. The crossed-out
dustbin symbol means that (rechargeable) batteries may not be disposed
of along with household waste.
You can, of course, also return discharged batteries - with sufficient
postage - by post to:
Fritsch GmbH
Milling and Sizing
Industriestrasse 8
D-55743 Idar-Oberstein, Germany
