This section describes the precautions for disposing of waste batteries in EU member states and exporting batteries
and/or devices with built-in batteries to EU member states.

In EU member states, there is a separate collection system for waste batteries. Dispose of batteries properly at the
local community waste collection/recycling center.
The symbol shown below is printed on the batteries and packaging of batteries and devices with built-in batteries used
