Disposal of the product
Disposal of batteries /
accumulators
The symbol with crossed-out dustbin on
batteries and accumulators indicates
that they should not be disposed of
along with household waste at the end
of their service life. If the batteries or
accumulators contain mercury (Hg), cadmium
(Cd) and lead (Pb), you can find the respective
chemical symbol below the crossed out dustbin.
Check the local and national regulations if
there is a legal obligation to return used
batteries and accumulators after use. You can
do this mostly free of charge at the retailer
or in another collection centre near you. The
addresses of appropriate collection points
can be obtained from your city or municipal
authorities.
Batteries may contain substances that are
harmful to the environment and human
health. Be very careful when handling lithium-
containing batteries because of the specific
risks. The separate collection and recycling
of used batteries and accumulators prevents
adverse effects on the environment and human
health.
Please avoid generating waste from used
batteries as much as possible, e.g. by preferring
batteries with a longer service life or using
rechargeable batteries. Please avoid littering
public places by not carelessly leaving batteries
or electrical and electronic equipment
containing batteries. Please consider ways to
reuse a battery instead of disposing of it, such
as reconditioning or repairing the battery.
This symbol indicates that this product
may not be disposed of together with
domestic waste in compliance with the
(2012/19/EC) directive pertaining to
waste electrical and electronic devices
(WEEE). This product should be handed over at
an designated collection point. This can occur,
for example, by returning it when a similar
product is purchased or by handing it in at an
authorised collecting point for the recycling of

Owing to potentially hazardous substances that
are frequently contained in waste electronic
equipment, incorrect handling of waste
equipment may have a negative impact on the
environment and on the health of human
beings. By disposing of this product correctly,
you are also contributing towards an efficient
use of natural resources. Information on
collection points for used equipment can be
obtained from your local authority, the public
waste disposal authority, an authorised
institution for the disposal of used electrical
and electronic equipment or the waste
collection services. Dispose of the product and
packaging in an environmentally friendly
manner.
Remove the battery before disposing the
product.
