Dispose of the product according to the applicable statutory provisions at the end of its service
life.
Remove any inserted battery from the remote control and dispose of it separately from the product.

You as the end user are required by law (Battery Ordinance) to return all used batteries/rechargeable bat-
teries. Disposing of them in household waste is prohibited!
Batteries/rechargeable batteries that contain any hazardous substances are labelled with the
adjacent icons to indicate that disposal in domestic waste is forbidden. The descriptions for the
respective heavy metals 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 may return used batteries/rechargeable batteries free of charge at the official collection
points in your community, in our stores, or wherever batteries/rechargeable batteries are sold.
You thus fulfil your statutory obligations and contribute to the protection of the environment.
