Battery recycling mark

Battery recycling information for the European Union

Batteries or packaging for batteries are labeled in accordance with European

Directive 2006/66/EC concerning batteries and accumulators and waste

batteries and accumulators. The Directive determines the framework for the

return and recycling of used batteries and accumulators as applicable

throughout the European Union. This label is applied to various batteries to

indicate that the battery is not to be thrown away, but rather reclaimed upon

end of life per this Directive.

In accordance with the European Directive 2006/66/EC, batteries and

accumulators are labeled to indicate that they are to be collected separately

and recycled at end of life. The label on the battery may also include a chemical

symbol for the metal concerned in the battery (Pb for lead, Hg for mercury, and

Cd for cadmium). Users of batteries and accumulators must not dispose of

batteries and accumulators as unsorted municipal waste, but use the collection

framework available to customers for the return, recycling, and treatment of

batteries and accumulators. Customer participation is important to minimize

any potential effects of batteries and accumulators on the environment and

human health due to the potential presence of hazardous substances. For

proper collection and treatment, go to: http://www.lenovo.com/recycling.
