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 to 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.
