Note on the disposal of used batteries
The following information is intended for those who use batteries or products with built-in batteries and do not resell them in the form in which they were supplied (end users):
1. Free return of used batteries
Batteries must not be disposed of with household waste. You are legally obliged to return used batteries so that they can be disposed of properly. You can return used batteries to a municipal collection point or to a local retailer. As a distributor of batteries, we are also obliged to take back used batteries, whereby our take-back obligation is limited to used batteries of the type that we carry or have carried in our range as new batteries. You can therefore either return used batteries of the aforementioned type to us with sufficient postage or hand them in free of charge directly at our shipping warehouse at the following address:
FraRon electronic GmbH
Industriestr. 2a

2. Meaning of battery symbols
Batteries are marked with a crossed-out wheelie bin symbol (see below). This symbol indicates that batteries must not be disposed of with household waste. For batteries containing more than 0.0005% mercury by weight, more than 0.002% cadmium by weight or more than 0.004% lead by weight, the chemical name of the respective pollutant is located below the wheelie bin symbol – ‘Cd’ stands for cadmium, ‘Pb’ stands for lead, and ‘Hg’ stands for mercury.
