- Inform yourself about the local separate collection system for
electrical and electronic products and rechargeable batteries.
Follow local rules and never dispose of the product and rechargeable
batteries with normal household waste. Correct disposal of old
products and rechargeable batteries helps prevent negative
consequences for the environment and human health.
Removing the rechargeable battery
Only remove the rechargeable battery when you discard the appliance.
Make sure the battery is completely empty when you remove it.
1 To deplete the rechargeable battery of any charge, remove the
handle from the charger, switch on the Sonicare and let it run
until it stops. Repeat this step until you can no longer switch on
the Sonicare.
2 Insert a screwdriver into the slot in the bottom of the handle and
turn counterclockwise to release the bottom cap (Fig. 12).
3 Hold the handle upside down and push down on the shaft to
release the internal components of the handle (Fig. 13).
4 Insert the screwdriver under the circuit board, next to the battery
connections, and twist to break the connections. Remove the
circuit board and pry the battery from the plastic carrier (Fig. 14).
