Waste Disposal/
Environmental Protection
Remove the battery from the device and
take the device, battery, accessories and
packaging for environmentally friendly re-
cycling.
Electric units do not belong with do-
mestic waste.
Do not dispose of batteries in house-
hold waste, fire (risk of explosion) or
water. Damaged batteries may dam-
age the environment and your health
if toxic fumes or liquids leak out.
• Return the unit and the recharger to a
recycling centre. The plastic and metal
parts employed can be separated out
and thus recycled use can be imple-
mented. Ask our Service-Center for
details.
• Dispose of batteries in discharged
condition. We recommend covering
the pole with adhesive tape to prevent
a short circuit. Do not open up the bat-
tery.
• Dispose of batteries in accordance with
the local regulations. Take batteries to
an old battery collection point where
they will be recycled in an environmen-
tally friendly manner. For information
about this, ask your local waste man-
agement company or our service centre.
• Defective units returned to us will be dis-
posed of for free.
