Notes on the electrical and electronic equipment
act [ElektroG]
Waste electrical and electronic equipment
does not belong in household waste, but
must be collected and disposed of sepa-
rately!
• Used batteries or rechargeable batteries that are not
installed permanently in the old appliance must be
removed non-destructively before disposal. Their
disposal is regulated by the battery law.
• Owners or users of electrical and electronic devices
are legally obliged to return them after use.
• The end user is responsible for deleting their per-
sonal data from the old device being disposed of!
• The symbol of the crossed-out dustbin means that
waste electrical and electronic equipment must not
be disposed of with household waste.
• Waste electrical and electronic equipment can be
handed in free of charge at the following places:
- Public disposal or collection points (e.g. municipal
works yards)
- Points of sale of electrical appliances (stationary
and online), provided that dealers are obliged to
take them back or offer to do so voluntarily.
- Up to three waste electrical devices per type of
device, with an edge length of no more than 25
centimetres, can be returned free of charge to
the manufacturer without prior purchase of a new
device from the manufacturer or taken to another
authorised collection point in your vicinity.
- Further supplementary take-back conditions of
the manufacturers and distributors can be ob-
tained from the respective customer service.
• If the manufacturer delivers a new electrical appli-
ance to a private household, the manufacturer can
arrange for the free collection of the old electrical
appliance upon request from the end user. Please
contact the manufacturer's customer service for
this.
• These statements only apply to devices installed
and sold in the countries of the European Union
and which are subject to the European Directive
2012/19/EU. In countries outside the European Un-
ion, different regulations may apply to the disposal
of waste electrical and electronic equipment.
Information on the battery act [BattG]
Old batteries and rechargeable batteries do
not belong in household waste, but must be
collected or disposed of separately!
• For safe removal of primary batteries or recharge-
able batteries from the electrical appliance and for
information on their type or chemical system, please
refer to the additional information in the operating or
assembly instructions.
• Owners or users of primary batteries and recharge-
able batteries are legally obliged to return them after
use. The return is limited to household quantities.
• Old batteries may contain pollutants or heavy met-
als that can harm the environment or human health.
Recycling old batteries and using the resources they
contain helps to protect these two important issues.
• The symbol of the crossed-out dustbin means that
primary batteries and rechargeable batteries must
not be disposed of with household waste.
• If the signs Hg, Cd or Pb are also located below the
dustbin symbol, this stands for the following:
- Hg: Battery contains more than 0.0005% mercury
- Cd: Battery contains more than 0.002% cadmium
- Pb: Battery contains more than 0.004% lead
• Rechargeable batteries and primary batteries can
be returned free of charge to the following places:
- Public disposal or collection points (e.g. municipal
works yards)
- Sales points for primary batteries and recharge-
able batteries
- Take-back points of the common take-back sys-
tem for old device batteries
- Take-back point of the manufacturer (if not a
member of the common take-back system)
• These statements are only valid for rechargeable
batteries and primary batteries sold in the countries
of the European Union and subject to the Europe-
an Directive 2006/66/EC. In countries outside the
European Union, different regulations may apply to
the disposal of rechargeable batteries and primary
batteries.
Removing the rechargeable battery before dispos-
ing of the device
• The integrated rechargeable battery must be re-
moved and disposed of separately in an environmen-
tally friendly manner before disposing of the device.
• Mask off the contacts and package the rechargeable
battery such that it cannot move in the packaging.
Please also observe any further national regulations.
