IMPORTANT NOTE FROM THE EUROPEAN DIRECTIVE 2006/66/EC ON WASTE ACCUMULATORS AND BATTERIES:

Wichtig
IMPORTANT: BATTERIES ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BE THROWN INTO THE DOMESTIC REFUSE. AS A END USER YOU ARE LEGALLY BOUND TO RETURN BATTERIES TO COLLECTING POINTS OR BACK TO THEIR ORIGIN.

Products containing batteries are marked with a crossed wheelie bin symbol: Durchgestrichene Mülltonne.

Beneath the symbol you will find also a chemical symbol added for a particular metal if the battery contains more than a specific percentage of it. The chemical symbols Cd stands for Cadmium, Hg for mercury and Pb for lead. Those are pollutants the environment never shall be contaminated with.
