European Union Compliance Statement
Battery recycling information for the European Union
Baeries or packaging for baeries are labeled in accordance with European Directive 2006/66/
EC and amendment 2013/56/EU concerning baeries and accumulators and waste baeries
and accumulators. The Directive determines the framework for the return and recycling of used
baeries and accumulators as applicable throughout the European Union. This label is applied
to various baeries to indicate that the baery is not to be thrown away, but rather reclaimed
upon end of life per this Directive.
In accordance with the European Directive 2006/66/EC and amendment 2013/56/EU, baeries
and accumulators are labeled to indicate that they are to be collected separately and recycled
at end of life. The label on the baery may also include a chemical symbol for the metal
concerned in the baery (Pb for lead, Hg for mercury, and Cd for cadmium). Users of baeries
and accumulators must not dispose of baeries and accumulators as unsorted municipal
waste, but use the collection framework available to customers for the return, recycling, and
treatment of baeries and accumulators. Customer participation is important to minimize any
potential effects of baeries and accumulators on the environment and human health due to
the potential presence of hazardous substances.
Before placing electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) in the waste collection stream or in
waste collection facilities, the end user of equipment containing baeries and/or accumulators
must remove those baeries and accumulators for separate collection.
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive
"All products bearing this symbol are waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE as in
directive 2012/19/EU) which should not be mixed with unsorted household waste. Instead, you
should protect human health and the environment by handing over your waste equipment to
a designated collection point for the recycling of waste electrical and electronic equipment,
appointed by the government or local authorities. Correct disposal and recycling will help
prevent potential negative consequences to the environment and human health. Please
contact the installer or local authorities for more information about the location as well as
terms and conditions of such collection points".
