11. Dismounting, return and disposal
To avoid damage:
Pack the transport case in a outer carton and mark the package with "sensitive measur-
ing instrument".
The included lithium ion rechargeable batteries or lithium metal batteries are subject
to the requirements of the Dangerous Goods Act. For shipping, special packaging and
labelling requirements must be observed. A dangerous goods expert must be consulted
when preparing the item to be shipped. Do not send any damaged or defective
rechargeable batteries. Cover open contacts with adhesive tape and package the
rechargeable battery such that it cannot move inside the package and short circuits are
prevented. The different requirements of the relevant transport carriers as regards the
Dangerous Goods Act and also any additional national regulations must be observed.
Information on returns can be found under the heading "Service" on our local
website.
11.3 Disposal
Incorrect disposal can put the environment at risk.
Dispose of instrument components and packaging materials in an environmentally
compatible way and in accordance with the country-specific waste disposal regulations.
This marking on the instruments indicates that they must not be disposed of
in domestic waste. The disposal is carried out by return to the manufacturer
or by the corresponding municipal authorities (see EU directive
2002/96/EC).
