Hello Group,

I previously posted a question about opening an ES8092 so as
to replace the batteries. The only reply I got stated that this is not
possible without breaking the sideburns trimmer. My question this time
is this: are all the new Panasonic razors designed the same way? If so
I think "do it yourselfer's" would be well advised to stay away from
Panasonic razors. They cannot be opened for service let alone battery
replacement. I hope I'm wrong on this, as I really do like the
Panasonics' performance as a razor, otherwise its' Norelco here I
come. Thanks.

Hello Group,

This may be a dumb question, but I'm having trouble getting a
Panasonic ES-8092 Linear Shaver opened up so as to replace
the NiMH cells. I recall getting a brochure with the razor explaining
how to remove the batteries prior to disposing the razor in the trash,
but I cannot locate that document. I removed the screw behind the
sideburns trimmer and the screws behind the 2 rubber plugs on the
bottom, but no joy. The thing still refuses to come apart. I tried
emailing Panasonic, but got a nonsense answer. If you have any
experience in this please help! Please reply to the Group or email
directly to: vigar39 at yahoo dot com. The user email associated with

You can download the user manual he

http://service.us.panasonic.com/oper...x?model=ES8092

It details how to get to the battery .... you do not have to break or
replace
the sideburn trimmer, but it does get removed to reach a screw ... a
couple
of screws are hidden under covers .. use a pointy needle to uncover
them

Hope it helps you
