11. Environmental and waste disposal information
Devices marked with this symbol are subject to the European Union Directive 2012/19/EU.
Electrical and electronic devices may not be put in the household waste, but must be disposed
of via designated public disposal centres. By properly disposing of the old device, you can avoid
environmental damage and hazards to health. Further information regarding proper disposal of
the old device can be obtained from your local authority or the shop where you purchased the
device.
The crossed-out bin symbol on batteries indicates that they are not permitted to be disposed of
with household waste, rather they must be collected separately.
With batteries that contain harmful substances, you will also find the chemical symbol of the
harmful substance under the crossed-out bin symbol. These symbols mean the following:
– Pb: Battery contains lead
– Cd: Battery contains cadmium
– Hg: Battery contains mercury
You are legally obligated to return disposable and rechargeable batteries. Old batteries may
contain harmful substances that can be harmful to your health or the environment when stored
or disposed of improperly. Batteries also contain important raw materials, such as iron, zinc,
manganese or nickel.
You can return old batteries to us or at collection points in your immediate vicinity (for example,
at shops or municipal collection points) Please note that you should only dispose of batteries in
collection containers for old batteries when they are fully discharged. If the batteries are not
completely dead, you need to take precautionary measures before disposal to prevent short
circuits.
Make sure that the packaging is disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner. Cardboard
packaging can be put out for waste-paper collection or taken to public collection points for
recycling. The plastic packaging used for your device will be collected by your local waste
management company and disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner.
