17. Disposal
Packaging
Your device has been packaged to protect it from damage in transit. The packaging is
made of materials that can be recycled in an environmentally friendly manner.
Device
The adjacent symbol of a crossed out wheelie bin means that the device is subject to Di-
rective 2012/19/EU. Do not dispose of old devices in normal household waste. In accor-
dance with Directive 2012/19/EU, the devices must be properly disposed of at the end
of its service life. This involves separating the materials in the devices for the purpose of
recycling and minimising the environmental impact. Take old devices to a collection point
for electrical scrap or a recycling centre. Before doing so, remove the batteries from the
device and take them to a separate collection point for used batteries. Contact your local
waste disposal company or your local authority for more information on this subject.
Batteries

not dispose of used batteries with normal household rubbish. Batteries must be disposed
of correctly. For this purpose, retailers that sell batteries and local collection points provi-
de containers in which you can dispose of them. Contact your local waste disposal com-
pany or your local authority for more information.
In connection with the sale of batteries or the supply of devices containing batteries, we
are obliged to draw your attention to the following:
As the end user, you are legally required to return used batteries. You can return used
batteries that we stock or have stocked in our range as new batteries to our dispatch
