The EPA certified RBRC® Battery Recycling Seal on the nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery indicates
JVC is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect and recycle these batteries at the end
of their useful life, when taken out of service in the United States. The RBRC® program provides a
convenient alternative to placing used Ni-Cd batteries into the trash or the municipal waste stream,
which may be illegal in your area. Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY™ for information on Ni-Cd battery
recycling and disposal bans/restrictions in your area. JVC’s involvement in this program is part of our
commitment to preserving our environment and conserving our natural resources.

(If the ventilation holes are blocked by a newspaper, or cloth etc. the heat may not be able to get out.)

When discarding batteries, environmental problems must be considered and the local rules or laws
