Disposal

Important information according to the Electrical and Electronic Equipment Act (ElektroG)

Electrical and electronic equipment must be recycled separately from household waste in accordance with the applicable statutory provisions.
► Please refer to the information on the Battery Act (BattG) provided below with regard to the disposal of batteries.
► Electrical and electronic devices must be recycled and not disposed of in the household waste.
The symbol of a dustbin with a cross through it on electrical and electronic equipment additionally indicates the legal obligation for separate collection.
► Recycle electrical and electronic equipment at collection points.
► Do not dispose of electrical and electronic equipment in the household waste.

According to § 17 ElektroG, consumer electronics shops are obliged to take back waste electrical and electronic equipment under certain conditions. Stationary distributors must take back an old electrical appliance of the same type free of charge when selling a new electrical appliance (1:1 take-back). This also applies to home deliveries. These retailers must also take back up to three small used electrical appliances (≤ 25cm) without this being linked to a new purchase (0:1 take-back). According to the ElektroG, as an online distributor of electrical appliances, we are obliged to take back appliances accordingly, although our obligation to take back 1:1 when delivering a new electrical and electronic appliance is limited to large appliances (> 50 cm) of the same type, due to our product range. We comply with the obligation to take back appliances other than large appliances via our service provider.
For contact details and drop-off locations, see: www.teufel.de/entsorgung.
Used electrical appliances can also be returned free of charge to an official drop-off point of the local waste disposal authority.

NOTE

For safety reasons, do not send any lighting devices (such as lamps).
Contact the collection points of the local waste disposal authority to return lighting devices.
The end user is responsible for deleting personal data from the used electrical appliances before returning them for disposal.
Our products may contain batteries/rechargeable batteries.
Refer to the enclosed product documentation for further information on the type and chemical system of the battery.

Products with battery compartments:
Remove the batteries or rechargeable batteries from products with battery compartments yourself and dispose of them properly.

Products with permanently installed batteries:
► Do not remove the batteries or rechargeable batteries yourself.

Important information according to the Battery Act (BattG)
Batteries or rechargeable batteries must be recycled separately from household waste in accordance with the applicable statutory provisions.

Please refer to the information on the Battery Act (BattG) provided below with regard to the disposal of batteries.
Electrical and electronic devices must be recycled and not disposed of in the household waste.

The symbol of a dustbin with a cross through it on batteries and rechargeable batteries additionally indicates the legal obligation for separate collection.

Recycle used batteries and rechargeable batteries at collection points.
Do not dispose of used batteries and rechargeable batteries in the household waste.

Used batteries may contain harmful substances which can damage the environment or your health if not stored or disposed of properly. This particularly applies to the incorrect handling of batteries containing lithium. However, batteries also contain important raw materials such as iron, zinc, manganese or nickel and can be recycled. Separate collection enables the recycling of these raw materials and avoids negative impacts of released harmful substances on
the environment and human health.

For contact details and drop-off locations, see: www.teufel.de/entsorgung.
Batteries and rechargeable batteries can also be returned free of charge to an official drop-off point of the local waste disposal authority.
Hand in used batteries which are stocked as new batteries at our Teufel Stores or the mail-order warehouse.
Do not send used batteries by post (dangerous goods regulations).

Information on the labelling of rechargeable batteries and avoiding waste
If the legal requirements are met, the following symbols with the following meaning must be used by the manufacturer of the batteries when labelling the batteries:

Hg Battery contains more than 0.0005 percent by mass of mercury
Pb Battery contains more than 0.004 percent by mass of lead
Cd Battery contains more than 0.002 percent by mass of cadmium
Use batteries with a long service life or rechargeable batteries, in order to avoid waste.
Replaceable rechargeable batteries extend the service life of electrical and electronic equipment and enable appliances and rechargeable batteries to be prepared for reuse (e.g. regeneration/replacement of rechargeable batteries).
Further information on waste prevention for consumers can be found e.g. in the waste prevention programme of the Federal Government with the participation of the Federal States.
