Page EN-44 Waste prevention, free return and disposal
to a retailer, so that they can be disposed of
in an environmentally friendly manner and so
that valuable resources (e.g. cobalt, nickel or
copper) can be recovered.
Batteries and rechargeable batteries can be
returned free of charge.
Some of the possible contents (e.g. mercury,
cadmium and lead) are toxic and, if improper-
ly disposed of, can have adverse effects on
the environment. Heavy metals, for instance,
can have detrimental health effects on hu-
mans, animals and plants and accumulate
in the environment and food chain, and then
enter the body indirectly through the con-
sumption of food.
There is a high risk of fire with old lithium bat-
teries. Special care must therefore be taken
to properly dispose of old lithium batteries
and rechargeable batteries. Improper dis-
posal can also lead to internal and external
short circuits due to thermal effects (heat) or
mechanical damage. A short circuit can lead
to a fire or an explosion and have serious
consequences for people and the environ-
ment. It is therefore important to tape off the
poles of lithium batteries and rechargeable
batteries before disposing of them to prevent
an external short circuit.
Before disposing of the appliance, batteries
and rechargeable batteries which are not
permanently built into the appliance must be
removed and disposed of separately.
Please only dispose of batteries and rechar-
geable batteries in a discharged state!
If possible, use rechargeable batteries in
place of disposable batteries.
