Disposal
Important information in accordance
with the Electrical and Electronic
Equipment Act (Germany: ElektroG)
We advise owners of electrical and electronic appliances that
old electrical and electronic devices must be handed in sepa-
rately from municipal waste, in accordance with the applica-
ble regulations. Batteries and rechargeable batteries that are
not fi rmly enclosed in old electrical devices and lamps, and
that can be removed from the old device without destroying
them, must be separated from them in a non-destructive
manner before they are handed to the collection point for
their intended disposal. Please take note of our information
on the Batteries Act [Germany: BattG] below for disposing of
batteries.
You make an important contribution to returning, recycling
and further processing of old devices if you separate your old
devices into the correct collection groups for recycling.
The symbol below of a crossed-out dustbin, applied to elec-
trical and electronic appliances, also advises of the duty to
separate collections:
Consumer electronics stores and supermarkets are obliged,
under certain conditions, to take back old electrical and elec-
tronic devices, in accordance with section 17 of the Electrical
and Electronic Equipment Act. Stationary retailers must take
back an old electrical device of the same type when a new
electrical device is bought (1:1 return). This also applies to
home deliveries. These retailers must also take back up to
three small old electrical devices (≤ 25cm) without this being
linked to a new purchase (0:1 return).
In accordance with the Electrical and Electronic Equipment
Act, as online retailers of electrical devices and due to our
product range, our obligation is limited to 1:1 return of large
devices of > 50 cm when selling a new electrical or electronic
device of the same type. We comply with the obligation of
return of devices other than large devices through our service
provider. You can fi nd the exact contact data and collection
points on our website
www.Teufel.de/entsorgung
. It is also
possible to return old electrical and electronic appliances free
of charge at an offi cial delivery point run by the public waste
disposal authorities.
Important:
For safety reasons we ask that you refrain from
sending lighting fi xtures (some lamps). For return of lighting
fi xtures please use the public waste disposal collection points
or contact us directly at
www.Teufel.de/entsorgung
.
As an end-user, you are responsible for deleting any personal
data on old electrical appliances before handing it in.
Important:
Our appliances can contain batteries/rechargea-
ble batteries. If this is the case, please refer to its attached
product documentation for additional information on the
type and chemical make-up of the battery. For products with
battery compartments you can directly remove the batteries
or rechargeable batteries and dispose of them properly. If
the batteries are built in to the product, do not in any case
attempt to remove the batteries yourself, instead contact one
of our employees or appropriate specialist staff.
