DISPOSING OF THE DEVICE
Do not dispose of electric devices with household waste. Dispose of these devices at recycling centres. Contact the relevant authorities or your retailer for information about this.
Separate collection of used products and packaging allows materials to be recycled. The reuse of materials helps to prevent pollution and reduces the demand for raw materials.
Dispose of batteries at the end of their service life and in a manner that respects the environment. The battery contains material that is dangerous to you and to the environment.
Therefore, it must be disposed of separately in a facility that accepts lithium-ion batteries.
