7 Insert the screwdriver between the bottom of the battery and
the black frame to break the metal tab connecting the battery
to the green printed circuit board. This will release the bottom
end of the battery from the frame.
8 Grab the battery and pull it away from the internal
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.
9 Cover the battery contacts with tape to prevent any electrical
short from residual battery charge. The rechargeable battery
can now be recycled and the rest of the product discarded
appropriately.
Note: Do not throw away the appliance with the normal
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.
