Batteries or packaging for batteries are labeled in accordance with
European Directive 2006/66/EC concerning batteries and accumulators
and waste batteries and accumulators. The Directive determines the
framework for the return and recycling of used batteries and accumulators
as applicable throughout the European Union. This label is applied to
various batteries to indicate that the battery is not to be thrown away, but
rather reclaimed upon end of life per this Directive.
In accordance with the European Directive 2006/66/EC, batteries and
accumulators are labeled to indicate that they are to be collected
separately and recycled at end of life. The label on the battery may also
include a chemical symbol for the metal concerned in the battery (Pb for
lead, Hg for mercury, and Cd for cadmium). Users of batteries and
accumulators must not dispose of batteries and accumulators as
unsorted municipal waste, but use the collection framework available to
customers for the return, recycling, and treatment of batteries and
accumulators. Customer participation is important to minimize any
potential effects of batteries and accumulators on the environment and
human health due to the potential presence of hazardous substances. For
