Environment
- The built-in rechargeable batteries contain
substances that may pollute the environment.
Always remove the batteries before you discard
and hand in the appliance at an official collection
point. Dispose of the batteries at an official
collection point for batteries. If you have trouble
removing the batteries, you can also take the
appliance to a Philips service centre. The staff of
this centre will remove the batteries for you and
will dispose of them in an environmentally safe
way.
- Do not throw away the appliance with the normal
household waste at the end of its life, but hand
it in at an official collection point for recycling. By
doing this, you help to preserve the environment.
removing the rechargeable batteries
This process is not reversible.
To remove the batteries yourself, you need a flat-
head (standard) screwdriver.
1 Remove the toothbrush from the charger,
switch it on and let it run until it stops.
Continue to switch on the Sonicare until the
batteries are completely empty.
2 Insert a screwdriver into one of the slots that
are located near the top part of the handle.
Push the screwdriver blade into the handle
as far as it goes and twist the blade. The
housing begins to split.
