THE RBRC™ SEAL
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable
Battery Recycling Corporation)
Seal on the lithium-ion battery
(or battery pack) indicates that
the costs to recycle the battery (or battery
pack) at the end of its useful life have
already been paid by BLACK+DECKER.
In some areas, it is illegal to place spent
lithium-ion batteries in the trash or municipal
solid waste stream and the RBRC program
provides an environmentally conscious
alternative.
RBRC in cooperation with
BLACK+DECKER and other battery
users, has established programs in the
United States and Canada to facilitate the
collection of spent lithium-ion batteries.
Help protect our environment and conserve
natural resources by returning the tool to
an authorized BLACK+DECKER service
center for recycling. You may also contact
your local recycling center for information on
where to drop off the spent battery, or call
