must be returned to the dealer
Attention! Rechargeable batteries must not be disposed of in household waste. Legislation regarding removal and recycling of used primary batteries and rechargeable batteries states that they should be returned to the dealer for correct disposal or recyclinghttp://www.ansmann.de/en/service.html

in the shops/in retail outlets
I would say "in the shops" or "in retail outlets". In the US, I suspect they might say "in the stores" rather than "in the shops", but perhaps one of our US colleagues can confirm this.

: It means shops in general and doesn't matter whether they are retail outlets or not.

: see http://www.ehso.com/ehshome/batteries.php (p. 3, from US Environ. Protection Agency - 'to a recycler'. As one might expect, the sentences don't apply 1:1 in the US. It may be that the current wording only applies in Germany or the EU.

: The preposition is "in" not "at", and you would use the definite article as well
