Recycling the Battery

D

The IQ80960RM/RN platform contains four AA NiCd batteries. Each battery has the logo of the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC) stamped on it. The recycling fees have been prepaid on these batteries. Do not dispose of a rechargeable battery with regular trash in a landfill. Rechargeable batteries contain toxic chemicals and metals that are harmful to the environment. Improperly disposing of rechargeable batteries is also illegal. The RBRC logo on a battery is a verification that recycling fees have been prepaid to the RBRC and such a battery can be recycled at no additional cost to the user. The RBRC is a non-profit corporation that promotes the recycling of rechargeable batteries, including NiCd batteries.

Information on the RBRC program and the locations of participating recycling centers can be obtained by telephoning 1-800-8-BATTERY (in the USA), and following the recorded instructions. The information obtained from this telephone number is updated frequently, since the RBRC program is growing, the new recycling locations are being added regularly.
