Here's the service manual.
http://63.230.9.155/braun/Srv_Man/SHAVER/
scroll down to the PDF for the 5476. It appears to have some similarities
to my 4501-it appears to use one NiMH AA cell with solder tabs, and it
employs a self-destruct device for the casing when the shaver is being
thrown away (a one-way coin turning device around the power jack; see
manual). I was able to defeat this device and reassemble
my shaver. I bought a NiMH cell with solder tabs from Thomas Distributing,
http://thomas-distributing.com/
but most solderable cells come with sheet metal tabs instead of wires, so
I had to cut them down.

Braun 5 476 shaver. How is it held together? Can't find any screws or obvious
clips that keep it in one piece.

On the back there is an international "recycle" symbol with the term "NH
accu". What type of batteries are these? Sources?

Thanks,
