16. Disposal of batteries
Dry or rechargeable batteries should never be
discarded as normal garbage!
Please use the local facilities for the disposal of
exhausted batteries.
Make sure the batteries are fully discharged befo-
re disposal.
The batteries are generally fully discharged when
the unit in which they are used
- switches itself off or indicates "Battery flat"
or
- no longer operates correctly when the batteries
have been in use for a long time.
In order to avoid short-circuits, the poles of the
batteries should be covered with a piece of adhe-
sive tape.
Batteries which contain dangerous substances are
marked as follows:
Pb = battery contains lead
Cd = battery contains cadmium
Hg = battery contains mercury
Li = battery contains lithium
