Batteries and rechargeable batteries containing harmful substances are clearly marked with the symbol of a crossed-out dustbin. Furthermore, below the symbol of the crossed-out dustbin is the chemical name of the corresponding pollutant. Examples are: (Pb) lead, (Cd) cadmium, (Hg) mercury. You can also read this information again in the documents accompanying the delivery of the goods or in the operating instructions of the respective manufacturer. Further detailed information on the Battery Ordinance is available from the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (www.bmu.de/abfallwirtschaft).
