End users are responsible for deleting personal data from the WEEE to be disposed
of.
It should be noted that different obligations about the return or recycling of WEEE
may apply in countries outside of Germany.
16.2 Rechargeable batteries
Remove batteries/rechargeable batteries, if any, and dispose of them separately
from the product. According to the Battery Directive, end users are legally obliged
to return all spent batteries/rechargeable batteries; they must not be disposed of in
the normal household waste.
Batteries/rechargeable batteries containing hazardous substances are
labelled with this symbol to indicate that disposal in household waste
is forbidden. The abbreviations for heavy metals in batteries are: Cd =
Cadmium, Hg = Mercury, Pb = Lead (name on (rechargeable) batteries,
e.g. below the trash icon on the left).
Used (rechargeable) batteries can be returned to collection points in your munici-
pality, our stores or wherever (rechargeable) batteries are sold. You thus fulfil your
statutory obligations and contribute to environmental protection.
Batteries/rechargeable batteries that are disposed of should be protected against
short circuit and their exposed terminals should be covered completely with insulat-
ing tape before disposal. Even empty batteries/rechargeable batteries can contain
residual energy that may cause them to swell, burst, catch fire or explode in the
event of a short circuit.
