battery and the black frame to break the metal tab

components to break the second metal battery tab.
Caution: Be aware of the sharp edges of the
battery tabs so as to avoid injury to your fingers.

household waste at the end of its life, but hand it in at an
official collection point for recycling. By doing this, you
help to preserve the environment.
