RE: Crossed out wheelie bin symbol (WEEE Directive)

2003-03-31 Thread Crabb, John

In directive 93/86/EEC (relating to batteries containing certain dangerous
substances),
it says the symbol shall cover 3% of the area of the largest side of the
battery
or accumulator, up to a maximum size of 5 cm x 5 cm.  For cylinrical cells
the symbol
shall 3% of half the surface area of the battery or accumulator and shall a
maximum
size of 5 cm x 5 cm.

Not a lot of help, I'm afraid.
I thought wheelie bin was unique to Scotland.

Anyone know if there is a size requirement for this symbol? 

i.e. not less than a certain height as applies to the CE mark which must be
at least 5mm tall.

The directive says The symbol must be printed visibly, legibly and
indelibly. No minimum size is specified.
