THE RBRC™ SEAL
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) Seal on the
LI-ION or NI-CD 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
PORTER-CABLE.
RBRC™ in cooperation with PORTER-CABLE and other battery users, has
established programs in the United States to facilitate the collection of spent
LI-ION or NI-CD batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural
resources by returning the spent LI-ION or NI-CD battery to an authorized
PORTER-CABLE service center or to your local retailer for recycling. You may also
contact your local recycling center for information on where to drop off the spent battery.
RBRC™ is a registered trademark of the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation.
