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 (Fig. 24).

until the batteries are empty.

6 Insert a screwdriver between the plastic battery holder and the
batteries (Fig. 27).
7 Remove the batteries from the plastic battery holder and the
