22. Disposal

a) Product
This symbol must appear on any electrical and electronic equipment placed on the EU market. This symbol
indicates that this device should not be disposed of as unsorted municipal waste at the end of its service
life.
Owners of WEEE ("Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment") shall dispose of it separately from unsorted mu-
nicipal waste. Spent batteries and accumulators, which are not enclosed by the WEEE, as well as lamps that can
be removed from the WEEE in a non-destructive manner, must be removed by end users from the WEEE in a non-
destructive manner before it is handed over to a collection point.
Distributors of electrical and electronic equipment are legally obliged to provide free take-back of waste. Conrad
provides the following return options free of charge (more details on our website):
• in our Conrad offices
• at the Conrad collection points
• at the collection points of public waste management authorities or the collection points set up by manufacturers or
distributors within the meaning of the ElektroG
End users are responsible for deleting personal data from the WEEE to be disposed of.
It should be noted that different obligations about the return or recycling of WEEE may apply in countries outside of
Germany.
b) (Rechargeable) batteries
Remove batteries/rechargeable batteries, if any, and dispose of them separately from the product. According to the
Battery Directive, end users are legally obliged to return all spent batteries/rechargeable batteries; they must not be
disposed of in the normal household waste.
Contaminated (rechargeable) batteries are labelled with this symbol to indicate that disposal in the domes-
tic waste is forbidden. The abbreviations for heavy metals in batteries are: Cd = Cadmium, Hg = Mercury,
Pb = Lead (name on (rechargeable) batteries, e.g. below the trash icon on the left).
Used (rechargeable) batteries can be returned to collection points in your municipality, our stores or wherever (re-
chargeable) batteries are sold. You thus fulfil your statutory obligations and contribute to environmental protection.
Batteries/rechargeable batteries that are disposed of should be protected against short circuit and their exposed ter-
minals should be covered completely with insulating tape before disposal. Even empty batteries/rechargeable batter-
ies can contain residual energy that may cause them to swell, burst, catch fire or explode in the event of a short circuit.
