Battery Disposal
•
The 12-volt battery will eventually lose the ability
to hold a charge. Depending on the amount of
use, and varying conditions, the battery should
operate for one to three years. If the battery will
not recharge, you must obtain a new 12-volt
battery.
•
The 12-volt battery contains lead acid (electrolyte) and must be disposed of properly
and legally.
•
DO NOT
throw the battery away with your regular household trash! It is illegal in
most areas to incinerate lead acid batteries or dispose of them in landfills.
•
If you must dispose of an exhausted battery, take it to a federally or state-approved
lead acid battery recycler, such as an authorized service center or your local
automotive battery retailer. Call
