friendly way for recycling.
Electrical appliances
The symbol with the crossed out dustbin means that this product cannot be disposed of in
the household waste. Electrical waste should be taken to a local acceptance point.
You can obtain further information about the disposal and recycling of this appliance from
your municipal utility company, the retailer where you purchased it or the manufacturer.
Before disposing of the appliance remove the batteries because they have to be disposed of
separately. Batteries cannot be put in the household waste as they pose an environmental
risk. Take them to a battery collection point. Contact your local authority to find out where
you can dispose of batteries in your area.
Even empty batteries have a residual charge. Before you dispose of them, cover the poles
with insulating tape to prevent them short circuiting, which could cause fire or an explosion.
Removing the battery
ATTENTION!
Do not open the battery due to the risk of electric shock. Irritating fumes or corrosive fluids may also
escape.
Do not expose the battery to strong sunlight, heat or fire due to the risk of explosion.
Remove the battery from the device and dispose of it properly.
Even discharged batteries still contain residual power. Because of this, cover the terminals with
insulating tape before disposal to prevent short-circuiting which could cause a fire or explosion.
