Disposal of batteries
Some batteries contain heavy metals such as mercury, lead, cadmium,
and nickel; therefore, many communities do not allow them to be thrown
away with your regular trash. Recycling is always the best option for
disposing of used batteries. Dry-cell batteries are used in a variety of
electronics and include alkaline and carbon zinc (9-volt, D, C, AA,
AAA), mercuric-oxide (button, some cylindrical and rectangular),
silver-oxide and zinc-air (button), and lithium (9-volt, C, AA, coin, button,
rechargeable) batteries. Look for in-store recycling bins or community
collection events to dispose of these batteries.
Disposal of the packaging
The packaging materials have been selected for their
environmental friendliness and ease of disposal, and are
therefore recyclable. Dispose of packaging materials that
are no longer needed in accordance with applicable
local regulations.
Note the marking on the different packaging materials
and separate them as necessary. The packaging materials
are marked with abbreviations (a) and numbers (b) with
the following meanings: 1–7: Plastics,
20–22: Paper and cardboard, 80–98: Composites.
