In accordance with Article 1, Section 18 and Article 2
of the Act revising the law of Waste-Related Product
Responsibility for Batteries and Accumulators (Gesetz
zur Neuregelung der abfallrechtlichen Produktverant-
wortung für Batterien und Akkumulatoren) dated 25
June 2009, we are obligated to provide the following
information.
Your device contains a rechargeable lithium battery.
Depleted batteries or rechargeable batteries that can
no longer be recharged should never be disposed of
along with normal or household waste. Old batteries
can contain harmful substances that are hazardous
to health and damaging to the environment. Please
return the batteries/rechargeable batteries. Return is
free of charge and required by law. Please only dispose
of discharged batteries in the designated containers
and tape the terminals of lithium batteries.
Note: The battery used in this unit poses a fire hazard
and can cause chemical injuries if it is used impro-
perly. Neither the battery nor the battery cells should
be opened or disassembled and they should not be
burned or exposed to temperatures exceeding 100 °C.
The disposal regulations specified above are also ap-
plicable for old devices.
All batteries and rechargeable batteries can be re-
cycled. Precious raw materials such as iron, zinc and
nickel can therefore be reused.
The symbol
has the following meaning:
Old electrical devices should not be disposed of along
with normal or household waste.
