Hg
Batteries and accumulators containing heavy metals such as mercury, lead, and cadmium
may contaminate the environment if improperly discarded. When incinerated, certain chemi-
cals are released into the air or concentrated in the ash residue from the combustion process;
this may lead to a health risk to humans, animals and the environment in general.
In compliance with legal requirements, the symbol of a 'crossed-out wheeled bin' is either ap-
plied on the battery or on its packaging. This symbol indicates that disposal of the batteries in
household waste is strictly prohibited; instead the batteries have to be disposed of by separate
collectionandrecyclingmeans.Additionalmarkingidentiestheheavymetalcontent(i.e.Cd

End users are obliged by law to comply with the discarding procedure for waste batteries. At
Mitutoyo facilities, or at its appointed distributors, receptacles will be provided to accept, at no
charge, the disposal of previously supplied batteries.
