The following notice is intended for those who use batteries or products with built-in batteries and no longer resell them in the form in which they were supplied (end users):

1. taking back used batteries free of charge

Batteries must not be disposed of with household waste. You are legally obliged to return used batteries so that proper disposal can be ensured. You can take used batteries to a municipal collection point or to your local retailer. As a distributor of batteries, we are also obliged to take back used batteries, although our take-back obligation is limited to used batteries of the type that we carry or have carried as new batteries in our range. You can therefore either return used batteries of the aforementioned type to us with sufficient postage or hand them in directly at our premises at the following address free of charge:

2 Meaning of the battery symbols

Batteries are marked with the symbol of a crossed-out dustbin (see below). This symbol indicates that batteries must not be disposed of with household waste. For batteries that contain more than 0.0005% mercury by mass, more than 0.002% cadmium by mass or more than 0.004% lead by mass, the chemical name of the pollutant used is located under the dustbin symbol - "Cd" stands for cadmium, "Pb" for lead and "Hg" for mercury."
