Disposal of batteries
Batteries/rechargeable batteries must be treated as
hazardous waste and must therefore be disposed of in
an environmentally sound manner by appropriate bodies
(retailers, specialist retailers, public municipal bodies,
commercial disposal companies). Batteries/rechargeable
batteries may contain toxic heavy metals.
The heavy metals contained are identified by letters below the symbol:
Cd = cadmium, Hg = mercury, Pb = lead.
For this reason, do not dispose of batteries/rechargeable batteries in
domestic waste. Take them to a specialist collection point. Only return
batteries or rechargeable batteries when they are fully discharged.
