Batteries and rechargeable batteries must not be disposed of in household waste. End users are legally obligated to return used batteries to appropriate collection points or to retailers. This serves to protect the environment and to recover valuable raw materials.
The symbol of the crossed-out wheeled bin indicates that batteries must be collected separately. Batteries may also carry chemical symbols such as Pb, Cd, Hg, Li, or Ni, which indicate the presence of harmful substances or specific materials.
Improper disposal may result in the release of hazardous substances that can affect health and safety, such as causing irritation, poisoning, or fire hazards in the case of damaged lithium batteries.

Please have permanently installed batteries removed only by qualified personnel.
