Notes for packaging

Notes on the electrical and electronic equipment
act
Waste electrical and electronic equipment
does not belong in household waste, but
must be collected and disposed of sepa-
rately!
• Used batteries that are not installed permanently in
the old device must be removed non-destructively
before disposal! Their disposal is regulated by the
battery act.
• 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 devices (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 device
to a private household, the manufacturer can ar-
range for the free collection of the old electrical de-
vice 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 disposal of used batteries
Used batteries do not belong in household
waste, but should be collected and dis-
posed of separately!
• For safe removal of used batteries from the electri-
cal device and for information on their type or chemi-
cal system, please refer to the additional information
in the operating or assembly instructions.
• Owners or users of batteries are legally obliged to
return them after use. The return is limited to house-
hold 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 plastic and metal parts used can be separated
by type and thus recycled.
• The symbol of the crossed-out dustbin means that
used batteries must not be disposed of with house-
hold 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
• Used batteries can be returned free of charge to the
following places:
- Public disposal or collection points (e.g. municipal
works yards)
- Battery retail outlets
- 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 batteries sold in
the countries of the European Union and subject to
the European Regulation (EU) 2023/1542. Different
provisions can apply to the disposal of used batter-
ies in countries outside the European Union.
