Disposing of the packaging

Disposing of the toothbrush
(Applicable in the European Union and other European states with systems for the separate collection of reusable waste materials)

Old devices must not be disposed of with household waste!

If at some point it is no longer possible to use the toothbrush, each consumer is required by law to dispose of old devices separately from their household waste, e.g. at a collection point in their community/borough. This ensures that old devices are recycled in a professional manner and also rules out negative consequences for the environment. For this reason, electrical equipment is marked with the symbol shown here.
Batteries and rechargeable batteries do not belong in the household waste!

As the end user you are required by law to bring all batteries and rechargeable batteries, regardless whether they contain harmful substances or not, to a collection point run by the communal authority or borough or to a retailer, so that they can be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner.
Bring the entire toothbrush (with the re-chargeable battery) to your collection point and make sure that it is in an uncharged state!
