Disposal Disposing of the packaging Sort the packaging materials before disposing of them, handing over cardboard for the waste paper collection and plastics for recycling.15

Disposing of the callus remover (Applicable in the European Union and other European countries with separate waste collection systems for recyclable materials) Old devices must not be disposed of with household waste! If the callus remover can no longer be used, consumers are obliged by law to dispose of used devices separately from household waste, e.g. by handing it over to a collection point run by their local authority/municipality. This ensures that such equipment is recycled in the proper manner and avoids any adverse eect on the environment. This is why electrical and electronic equipment is marked with the symbol shown here. The casing of the callus remover is made of ABS plastic. Hand over the casing of the device for separate collection of this material if your local authority runs such a recycling scheme. Batteries including rechargeable ones must not be disposed of with your household waste! As a consumer you are obliged by law to hand over all batteries (incl. rechargeable ones) regardless whether they contain harmful substances* or not, to a collection point run by your local authority/municipality or to return them to the retailer so they can be subjected to environmentally sound disposal. *labelled with: Cd = cadmium, Hg = mercury, Pb = lead16
