or borough or to a retailer, so that they can
be disposed of in an environmentally friendly
manner and so that valuable resources (e .g .
cobalt, nickel or copper) can be recovered .
Single-use and rechargeable batteries can be
returned free of charge .
Some of the possible contents (e .g . mercury,
cadmium and lead) are toxic and, if improp-
erly disposed of, can have adverse effects on
the environment . Heavy metals, for instance,
can have detrimental health effects on hu-
mans, animals and plants and accumulate in
the environment and food chain, and then en-
ter the body indirectly through the consump-
tion of food .
There is a high risk of fire with old lithium bat-
teries . Special care must therefore be taken
to properly dispose of old lithium batteries
and rechargeable batteries . Improper dispos-
al can also lead to internal and external short
circuits due to thermal effects (heat) or me-
chanical damage . A short circuit can lead to
a fire or an explosion and have serious con-
sequences for people and the environment . It
is therefore important to tape off the terminals
of lithium batteries and rechargeable batter-
ies before disposing of them to prevent an
external short circuit .
Single-use and rechargeable batteries that
are not built into the device should be re-
moved before disposal and then disposed of
separately .
Please only dispose of single-use and re-
chargeable batteries in a discharged state!
If possible, use rechargeable batteries in
place of disposable batteries .
