IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR END USERS
Batteries must not be disposed of with household waste. As an end user, you are legally obliged to return used batteries. Batteries can be returned free of charge after use at retail outlets. In connection with the sale of vehicle batteries to end users, we are additionally obliged under § 10 BattG to charge a deposit of 7.50 euros including VAT per vehicle battery if the end user does not return a used vehicle battery at the time of purchasing a new vehicle battery. We are obliged to refund the deposit if you return a used vehicle battery to us (ZS 2radteile GmbH, Unterbibracher Str. 3, 95519 Vorbach). Furthermore, we are obliged to refund the deposit if you have returned a used vehicle battery to another distributor of vehicle batteries, to a public waste disposal authority, or to an operator of a treatment facility for end-of-life vehicles in accordance with the End-of-Life Vehicle Ordinance (Ordinance on the Surrender, Return and Environmentally Compatible Disposal of End-of-Life Vehicles) and present us with written or electronic proof of return, which must not be older than two weeks at the time of presentation. If you are a commercial or other economic enterprise or represent a public institution, you also have the option of disposing of the vehicle battery directly with manufacturers of vehicle batteries or with commercial waste battery disposal companies; in this case, you will also receive the deposit back from us upon presentation of written or electronic proof of return from these bodies, which must not be older than two weeks at the time of presentation.
