en - Caring for the environment
to remove any old batteries which are
not securely enclosed by the appliance
and take them to a suitable collection
point (e.g. retailer) where they can be
handed in free of charge. Insulate the
metal contacts with adhesive tape to
prevent short circuits. Batteries may
contain substances which can be haz-
ardous to human health and the envir-
onment.
The labelling on the battery will provide
further information. For example, batter-
ies containing lithium are marked "Li-
ion". The bin symbol with a cross
through it means that the batteries
must not be disposed of in household
waste. We are also required to inform
you that a bin with a cross through it
which also has one or more chemical
symbols on it indicates that the battery
contains lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd) and/
or mercury (Hg).
Old batteries contain valuable raw ma-
terials which can be recycled. Disposing
of batteries separately makes them
easier to handle and recycle.
