Rechargeable batteries may not be disposed of
with the usual domestic waste. They may contain
toxic heavy metals and are subject to hazardous
waste regulations. The chemical symbols of the
heavy metals are: Cd = cadmium, Hg = mercury,
Pb = lead. For this reason, dispose of used re-
chargeable batteries at a local collection point.
