Philips HX6731/02 User Manual

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.

The built-in rechargeable battery contains substances that may pollute 

the environment. Always remove the battery before you discard and 

hand in the appliance at an official collection point. Dispose of the 

battery at an official collection point for batteries. If you have trouble 

removing the battery, you can also take the appliance to a Philips 

service centre. The staff of this centre will remove the battery for you 

and will dispose of it in an environmentally safe way. 

Please note that this process is not reversible.

 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.

  

 Insert a flathead (standard) screwdriver into the slot located at the 

bottom of the handle and turn it anticlockwise to release the bottom 

cap. 

 3 

 Hold the handle upside down and push down on the shaft to release 

the internal components of the handle.

 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.

If you need service or information or if you have a problem, please visit 

the Philips website at www.philips.com or contact the Philips Consumer 

Care Centre in your country (you find its phone number in the worldwide 

guarantee leaflet). If there is no Consumer Care Centre in your country, go 

to your local Philips dealer.
