Information about vehicle batteries according to the German Batteries Act (BattG) – valid for
Germany
(If abroad, observe country-specific laws.) Old motorcycle batteries can be returned by the end user
without charge to the dealer at or near their retail outlet or to the mail order supplier's distribution
warehouse (must not be sent through the mail due to the hazardous goods regulations). Some local
authority collection points or recycling centres may charge for returns. Please enquire at your local
collection point. End users who purchase a new motorcycle battery without returning an old one must
pay a deposit of € 7.50, incl. VAT, which will be refunded when an old battery is brought back. Our
stated battery prices do not include this deposit. If the old motorcycle battery is returned to a different
dealer (i.e. not the one to whom the deposit was paid), this dealer is required under Section 11 Para.
3 of the German Batteries Act (BattG), to issue written or electronic confirmation that the battery
has been accepted without a refund of the deposit, if so requested by the end user. Dealers who sell
motorcycle batteries via distance selling (internet, mail order, catalogue sales etc.) are obliged to
refund the deposit upon presentation of the written or electronic confirmation of return, provided such
confirmation is not more than two weeks old at the time of presentation.
Note according to § 18 of the German Batteries Act – valid for Germany
The illustrated and crossed-out wheelie bin means that batteries must not be disposed of along with
household waste. If any of the following letters appear underneath this symbol (Pb: battery contains
lead, Cd: battery contains cadmium, Hg: battery contains mercury), this means that the battery
contains these metals and therefore special rules apply to its disposal. Batteries may not be disposed
of along with household waste. They may contain substances that are harmful to the environment and
pose a health risk. Please return old batteries to us, or take them to your municipal recycling centre or
battery dealer. The return is free of charge and required by law; regarding the return of vehicle batteries
and possible associated costs in the event that the return does not take place with us, we cannot
reimburse you. All old batteries will be reused. This enables valuable materials to be recycled and, at
the same time, protects the environment and human health.
