Statutory Notification about the Battery Regulations
The delivery of many devices includes batteries, which for
example serve to operate the remote control. There also could
be batteries or accumulators built into the device itself. In
connection with the sale of these batteries or accumulators, we
are obliged under the Battery Regulations to notify our
customers of the following:
Please dispose of old batteries at a council collection point or
return them to a local shop at no cost. The disposal in domestic
refuse is strictly forbidden according to the Battery Regulations.
You can return used batteries obtained from us at no charge at
the address on the last side in this manual or by posting with
sufficient stamps.
Batteries, which contain harmful substances, are marked with
the symbol of a crossed-out waste bin, similar to the illustration
shown left. Under the waste bin symbol is the chemical symbol
for the harmful substance, e.g. „Cd“ for cadmium, „Pb“ stands for
lead and „Hg“ for mercury.
You can obtain further information about the Battery Regulations
from the Bundesministerium für Umwelt, Naturschutz und
Reaktorsicherheit (Federal Ministry of Environment, Nature
Conservation and Reactor Safety).
