Batteries
This appliance operates on two 1.5 volt batteries. For best performance, use alkaline batteries (type LR 6, AM 3, MN 1500 or size AA alkaline, e.g. Duracell). These batteries provide a shaving capacity of approx. 60 minutes.
Slide the battery 8 cover in the direction indicated by the arrow, then open. Insert batteries 7 with the poles in the direction marked. Close the battery cover and slide it back to start position.
Note: Never leave batteries in the shaver for long periods of time when the shaver is not in use (danger of leakage). Take expired batteries out of the shaver immediately.
Used batteries should not be thrown away with the house hold waste. Please dispose of them at special collection points or return them to your retailer or authorized service centre.
