Environmental Information

Disposal of the battery should be carried out in accordance with 

applicable national laws and regulations. WEEE 2002/96/EC is a 

European Directive that requires the proper disposal of electrical 

and electronic equipment. The battery should be disposed of 

separately, not as unsorted municipal waste. To dispose of your 

battery, you should use appropriate collection, reuse and recycling 

systems available in your region. The use of these collection, reuse 

and recycling systems is designed to reduce pressure on natural 

resources and prevent hazardous substances from damaging the 

environment. European Directive 2006/66/EC requires the proper 

disposal of spent batteries. The battery may only be returned to 

collection points fully discharged. If charged or partially discharged, 

care should be taken to prevent short circuiting. Batteries containing 

more than 0.0005% of mercury by mass, more than 0.002% of 

cadmium by mass or more than 0.004% of lead by mass are marked 

below the crossed-bin symbol with the chemical symbols (Hg, Cd, 

Pb) of the metals for which the limit is exceeded.
