3 Disposal
Packaging materials must be disposed of according to local regula-
tions.
This marking shown on the product or its literature, indicates that it
should not be disposed with other household wastes at the end of
its working life. To prevent possible harm to the environment or
human health from uncontrolled waste disposal, please separate
this from other types of wastes and recycle it responsibly to pro-
mote the sustainable reuse of material resources.
Disposing of batteries into household garbage is not permitted; you
are bound by law to return used batteries. Used batteries can con-
tain harmful substances which can damage the environment or your
health when not disposed of correctly. Batteries also contain im-
portant commodities such as iron, zinc, manganese or nickel which
will be recycled. You may send the used batteries back to us, or you
can return them to your local recycling center free of charge (rec-
ommended). The symbol of the crossed waste container is a warn-
ing against disposing of hazardous materials into household gar-
bage.
