Meaning of the battery symbols
Batteries are marked with the symbol of a crossed-
out dustbin (see following illustration). This symbol
indicates that batteries must not be disposed of with
household waste. Batteries containing more than
0.0005 mass percent of mercury, more than 0.002
mass percent of cadmium or more than 0.004 mass
percent of lead additionally bear the chemical name
of the pollutant they contain below the
waste bin symbol. The abbreviation "Cd"
stands for cadmium, "Pb" stands for lead
and "Hg" stands for mercury.
2.12 Note on the Disposal of Electric
Appliances
The Electrical and Electronic Equipment Act
(ElektroG) contains a large number of requirements
for the handling of electrical and electronic
equipment. The most important ones are listed here.
1. Separate collection of old appliances
Electrical and electronic equipment that has become
waste is referred to as old appliances. Owners of
WEEE must have it collected separately from unsorted
municipal waste. In particular, old appliances must
not be disposed of with household waste, but in
special collection and return systems.
2. Batteries and accumulators
Owners of WEEE must normally separate used
batteries and accumulators which are not enclosed
by the WEEE from WEEE before returning them to a
collection point. This does not apply if the old
appliances are handed over to public waste
management authorities and separated from other
old appliances for the purpose of preparation for
reuse.
3. Return options for old appliances
Owners of WEEE from private households can hand it
in at the collection points of the public disposal
authorities or at the collection points set up by
manufacturers or distributors within the meaning of
the ElektroG. An online list of collection and return
points can be found here: https://www.ear-

4. Data protection notice
WEEE often contains sensitive personal data. This
applies
in particular to information and
telecommunications technology devices such as
computers and smartphones. In your own interest,
please note that each end user is responsible for
deleting the data on the old devices to be disposed of.
