Disposal of Batteries (if applicable):
•
370 x 260 x 444 mm
Never dispose of any types of batteries in fire or near excessive heat or direct sunlight. Overheated batteries can rupture or explode.
•
If you are unsure of how or where to dispose of a battery, refer to your local ordinances for the proper location, method, etc.
•
Alkaline batteries & lithium button cell batteries: You can safely dispose of alkaline and lithium button cell batteries with normal
household waste. They do not pose a health or environmental risk during normal use or disposal. (Alkaline batteries are composed
primarily of common metals like steel, zinc, and manganese.)
Do not dispose of large amounts of alkaline or lithium button cell batteries in a group. Used batteries are often not completely
"dead." Grouping them together can bring these "live" batteries into contact with one another, creating safety risks. To avoid this,
insulate each battery with tape or other non-conductive material to ensure it does not discharge. Proven cost-effective and
environmentally safe recycling processes are not yet universally available for alkaline and lithium button cell batteries. Some
communities offer recycling or collection of these batteries. For more information, refer to your local ordinances or contact your local
government.
•
Lead-acid batteries: Dispose of lead-acid batteries by bringing them to an electronic waste center or recycling center, or dispose of
them in accordance with your local ordinances. (Rechargeable lead-acid batteries are the same type used in automobiles and should
be disposed of in a similar fashion.)
