Notice according to battery law

In connection with the sale of batteries and rechargeable batteries, we are obliged as a dealer under the Battery Act (BattG) to inform our customers of the following:

You are legally obliged to return old batteries and rechargeable batteries after use. As an end user, you can also return old batteries and rechargeable batteries from our range to our dispatch warehouse free of charge or send them back to us. You can also return old rechargeable batteries and batteries to a municipal collection point or to your local retailer. Please note that batteries and rechargeable batteries must not be disposed of in household waste. This is indicated by a crossed-out dustbin on the batteries and accumulators.

Because: The improper disposal of batteries and accumulators can have harmful effects on the environment and on human health due to the substances contained in the batteries. For this reason, the separate collection recycling of used batteries is of particular importance for the environment and health.

Batteries and accumulators are also marked with the chemical symbol of the respective pollutant they contain. Batteries containing more than 0.0005 mass percent mercury, more than 0.002 mass percent cadmium or more than 0.004 mass percent lead are marked with the chemical symbols of the metals (e.g. "Cd" for cadmium, "Pb" for lead, "Hg" for mercury).
