Do not dispose of waste batteries, waste
electrical and electronic equipment as
unsorted municipal waste. Waste batteries
and waste electrical and electronic
equipment must be collected separately.
Waste batteries, waste accumulators,
and light sources have to be removed
from the equipment. Check with your
local authority or retailer for recycling
advice and collection point. According to
local regulations, retailers may have an
obligation to take back waste batteries and
waste electrical and electronic equipment
free of charge. Your contribution to the
reuse and recycling of waste batteries and
waste electrical and electronic equipment
helps to reduce the demand of raw
materials. Waste batteries, in particular
containing lithium, and waste electrical
and electronic equipment contain valuable
and recyclable materials, which can
adversely impact the environment and
the human health if not disposed of in an
environmentally compatible manner. Delete
personal data from waste equipment, if any.
