Equipment and Battery Disposal
This symbol on equipment indicates that the equipment must not be disposed of with your other
household waste. Instead, it is your responsibility to dispose of such equipment at a designated
collection point for the recycling of batteries or electrical and electronic equipment. If the equipment
contains a banned substance, the label will show the pollutant (Cd=Cadmium; Hg=Mercury; Pb=Lead)
near this symbol. Before recycling, ensure batteries are discharged or the terminals are covered with
adhesive tape to prevent shorting. The separate collection and recycling of your waste equipment at the time
of disposal will help conserve natural resources and ensure it is recycled in a manner that protects human
health and the environment. For more information about where you can drop off your waste equipment for
recycling, please contact your local city office, your household waste disposal service, or the shop where
you purchased the equipment.
