Disposal of batteries
Batteries contain substances that can be harmful
to human health and the environment if they are
not handled properly. Batteries are marked with the
crossed trash bin. It symbolises that waste batteries
must not be disposed with unsorted waste but must
be collected separately.
It is important that you hand in your waste batteries to
the collection points that are established. In this way,
you help to ensure that the batteries are recycled in
accordance with legislation and do not unnecessarily
damage the environment� Your local waste authori
-
ties can inform you how to dispose and recycle this
