Recycling loop
Packaging material can be conveyed back to the raw material cycle. Dispose of packaging material in
accordance with legal provisions. Information can be retrieved from the return or collections systems of
your community.
Note on the Battery Act (BattG)
Batteries and cells must not be disposed of with household waste. As an end user, you are legally obliged
to return used batteries. Use the official designated collection points such as those of public waste
disposal agencies.
Apart from this information, we point out the following:
Used batteries contain pollutants that, if not properly stored or disposed of, can damage the environment
or your health. Batteries also contain important raw materials such as Iron, zinc, manganese or nickel
which can be used again.
The symbol with the crossed-out waste bin means that batteries and cells must not be disposed of with
household waste.
Notes on the Electrical and Electronic Equipment Act (ElektroG)
We would like to point out to owners of electrical and electronic equipment that, according to the
applicable legal regulations, electrical devices must be disposed of separately from municipal waste. The
symbol of a crossed-out waste bin shown on the electrical and electronic equipment shown below also
indicates the obligation to dispose of the batteries separately:
According to the ElektroG, as distributors of electrical devices, we are obliged to take back certain old
electrical and electronic equipment free of charge in accordance with Section 17 (2) ElektroG and in
conjunction with Section 17 (1) ElektroG. We comply with this legal obligation through DR Deutsche
Recycling Service GmbH / take-e-way GmbH. You can also hand in your electrical equipment at the
designated collection points of the public waste disposal authorities. By disposing of your old devices
according to the legal requirements, you make an important contribution in the reuse and recycling of old
devices.
As the end user, you are responsible for the deletion of all manner of personal data on electronic devices
before handing the devices over for disposal.
