Waste prevention, free return and disposal

mentally friendly manner and so that valuable
resources (e.g. cobalt, nickel or copper) can
be recovered.
Batteries and rechargeable batteries can be
returned free of charge.
Some of the possible contents (e.g. mercury,
cadmium and lead) are toxic and, if improperly
disposed of, can have adverse effects on the
environment. Heavy metals, for instance, can
have detrimental health effects on humans,
animals and plants and accumulate in the
environment and food chain, and then enter
the body indirectly through the consumption
of food.
There is a high risk of fire with old lithium bat-
teries. Special care must therefore be taken
to properly dispose of old lithium batteries and
rechargeable batteries. Improper disposal can
also lead to internal and external short circuits
due to thermal effects (heat) or mechanical
damage. A short circuit can lead to a fire or an
explosion and have serious consequences for
people and the environment. It is therefore im-
portant to tape off the poles of lithium batteries
and rechargeable batteries before disposing
of them to prevent an external short circuit.
Before disposing of the appliance, batteries
and rechargeable batteries which are not per-
manently built into the appliance must be re-
moved and disposed of separately.
Please only dispose of batteries and recharge-
able batteries in a discharged state!
If possible, use rechargeable batteries in
place of disposable batteries.
