NICKEL-CADMIUM BATTERIES

If equipped with a nickel-cadmium battery, the
battery must be collected, recycled or
disposed of in an environmentally sound
manner.
"The EPA certified RBRC
Battery Recycling Seal on the
nickel-cadmium
battery indicates Robert
Bosch Tool Corporation is
voluntarily participating in an

Battery Disposal

industry program to collect and recycle these
batteries at the end of their useful life, when
taken out of service in the United States or
Canada. The RBRC program provides a
convenient alterative to placing used Ni-Cd
batteries into the trash or the municipal waste
stream, which may be illegal in your area.
Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information
on Ni-Cd battery recycling and disposal
bans/restrictions in your area, or return your
batteries to a Skil/Bosch/Dremel Service
Center for recycling. Robert Bosch Tool
Corporation's involvement in this program is
part of our commitment to preserving our
environment and conserving our natural
(Ni-Cd)
resources."
