15. Disposal
a) General
At the end of its service life, dispose of the product according to the relevant statutory regulations.
b) Batteries and rechargeable batteries
You as the end user are required by law (Battery Ordinance) to return all used batteries/rechargeable batteries. Disposing of them in the household
waste is prohibited!
Batteries containing hazardous substances are labelled with the symbols shown to the left. These symbols also indicate that disposal of these
batteries in the household waste is prohibited. The heavy metals concerned are: Cd = cadmium, Hg = mercury, Pb = lead (the names are indicated
on the battery/rechargeable battery e.g. below the rubbish bin symbols shown on the left).
You can return used batteries/rechargeable batteries free of charge at any collecting point in your local community, at our stores or wherever
batteries/rechargeable batteries are sold.
You thus fulfil your statutory obligations and contribute to the protection of the environment.
