Information on waste electrical equipment and batteries
The BIBO Pulmifier® is an electrical device. The controller contains a permanently installed lithium-ion battery. To ensure that devices and batteries are recycled in an environmentally sound manner, we inform you here about your obligations and options for returning them.
1. Waste electrical and electronic equipment
Separate collection
Waste electrical and electronic equipment does not belong in household waste. As the owner of a waste device, you are obliged to collect it separately from unsorted municipal waste.
Symbol of the crossed-out wheeled bin
This symbol on the device or its packaging means that the device must be disposed of separately from household waste at the end of its service life.
Waste batteries and rechargeable batteries
Waste batteries and rechargeable batteries that are not enclosed by the waste device, as well as lamps that can be removed without destruction, must be separated from the waste device before it is handed in at a collection point. In the BIBO Pulmifier®, the rechargeable battery is permanently installed in the controller. Please do not remove it yourself; return the controller as a whole.
