Battery disposal (when applicable)
Before disposing of your equipment ensure that you have removed any batteries that may
be fitted in the equipment. European law states that batteries must be collected for
disposal separately from household waste. Do not throw your used batteries in the
dustbin. Dispose of your used batteries via a battery collection scheme where available,
or ask your distributor or local authority what infrastructures you can use. Your efforts will
enable the safe collection, recycling and destruction of used batteries and will help protect
the environment and reduce health hazards.
- Caution: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of
used batteries according to the instructions.
