The RBRCTM Seal

The RBRCTM Seal on the (easily removable) nickel-cadmium battery (contained in our product) indicates that Toshiba America Consumer Products, Inc. (TACP) is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect and recycle these batteries at the end of their useful lives, when taken out of service within the United States. The RBRCTM program provides a convenient alternative to placing used nickel-cadmium batteries into the trash or municipal waste, which is illegal in some areas.

TACP’s payments to RBRCTM make it easy for you to drop off the spent battery at local retailers of replacement nickel-cadmium batteries, or at authorized TACP product service centers. You may also contact your local recycling center for information on where to return the spent battery. Please call 1-800-8-BATTER for information on Ni-Cd battery recycling in your area. TACP’s involvement in this program is part of its commitment to protecting our environment and conserving natural resources.
