Battery safety instructions
GB
We place our batteries on the market in line with legal
requirements. Please read the points below on the safe
disposal of our batteries:
To prevent harmful effects to the environment and
health, used batteries must be disposed of properly
at recycling centres or returned to the point of sale.
Returning batteries is required by law and free of
charge for you.
Batteries should only be returned in a fully
discharged state. The poles of lithium-ion batteries
must be insulated with adhesive tape.
Valuable raw materials such as zinc, iron, nickel and
so on can be recovered by recycling used batteries.
The batteries can be easily removed from our devices
for disposal (see the following pages). Magnifiers
containing a built-in rechargeable battery must be
disposed of completely.
The "crossed out wheelie bin" symbol indicates that it
is illegal to dispose of used batteries along with normal
refuse.
The additional specification of the chemical symbols for
lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd) and mercury (Hg) indicates that
these materials are contained in the batteries in legally
permissible quantities.
