Statutory Notification about the Battery Regulations
The delivery of many devices includes batteries, which for example serve
to operate the remote control. There also could be batteries or
accumulators built into the device itself. In connection with the sale of
these batteries or accumulators, we are obliged under the Battery
Regulations to notify our customers of the following:
Please dispose of old batteries at a council collection point or return them
to a local shop at no cost. The disposal in domestic refuse is strictly
forbidden according to the Battery Regulations. You can return used
batteries obtained from us at no charge at the address on the last side in
this manual or by posting with sufficient stamps.
Batteries, which contain harmful substances, are
marked with the symbol of a crossed-out waste
bin, similar to the illustration shown left. Under
the waste bin symbol is the chemical symbol for
the harmful substance, e.g. „Cd“ for cadmium,
„Pb“ stands for lead and „Hg“ for mercury.
You can obtain further information about the Battery Regulations from the
Bundesministerium für Umwelt, Naturschutz und Reaktorsicherheit
(Federal Ministry of Environment, Nature Conservation and Reactor
Safety)
