3.1

Disposing of batteries

Lead-acid AGM batteries contain harmful substances. These have
the potential to damage the environment and pose a risk to human
health.
The bin icon means that these batteries must not be disposed of in
PB
household waste.
The "PB" designation under the bin indicates that the battery con-
tains lead.
End users are legally required to take used batteries to a suitable collecting depot.
If batteries are being disposed of in the Federal Republic of Germany, the Batte-
ries Act (in the most recent version of June 2012) must be observed. When dis-
posing of batteries elsewhere in the EU, refer to the national implementation of
Directive 2006/66 EC that applies in each case. When disposing of batteries in
other economic regions, observe the regulations that apply in those cases.
Used batteries contain valuable raw materials that can be recyc-
led.
