How do you change the spent batteries?

Changing the batteries is not for the weak of heart in the Hoover S1120. Although I did find batteries somewhere in an Internet search, they cost as much as just buying a new handheld. And the unit itself is not designed for easy replacement of batteries.....you basically have to take the whole thing apart. I would suggest doing yourself a favor, and simply replace the vac with one that was designed with the consumer in mind from the very start.

Go to youtube and look up the video on how to do it. You'll need to disassemble the blue parts off the old battery and reinstall it on the new one.

The indentation on the top above the logo slides away from the black button. That's where you change the batteries.

Batteries go in at the bottom. Just "unscrew," place the batteries and screw back on.

You can replace the battery yourself. C Crane has a pdf guide at their website. It took me 5 minutes to do it myself.

Yes you can...the older models had to be returned to the manufacture but these new models offers this option to change out the batteries yourself

It's not clear what you're looking for. Slide out the battery compartment at the bottom of the case. Use a small screwdriver to remove the battery that is already in there. Buy a replacement. Put it in where the original was. It's pretty straightforward and not difficult. I don't recall the battery number, but you'll find it on the existing battery. All the major drug stores carry it.

I would call the company of the device in which you are replacing the batteries. I would not mess around without checking first because you could destroy the device. You might want to call a place like Batteries Plus in case they could guide you. Good luck.

Ha! Funny you should ask because I have to change my battery also. If you look at your two ear pieces you will notice that half of one is half black and half green. That is where the batteries are located at. Gently, with your fingers, push up and that black cover should move and then lift it off. Once you are done make sure that you snap it back into place and that it is firmly secured.

Twist the battery cap (round cap on base) counterclockwise(left) and the cap will come off then remove batteries from battery cavity noting the correct polarity. Place new batteries of same type size and condition into battery holder. Place cap over battery end, press toward batterie and turn right (clockwise) until it is snug. Do not over tighten.

New batteries did not help? Mine have been working fine. You can take it to any recycle bin in your area or put it in your own recycling bins for pick up. If you haven't had it long and new batteries don't work, I would contact the company who makes them.

Just go slow and dont force anything. you need the old casing!!!!after opening clean off ledges on casing. the batteries have a part number on them. go on line and buy a couple. under $3 apiece. use solding iron to remove and install new one/ones. note how they are wired up and install same way,,, put back together and use just a dab of crazy glue. peace you can fix the battery yourself. if you have about 10 mins and a soldering iron. 1.use a small razor knife, work around battery casing cutting through the glue. corners are the hardest part. dont cut all the way through. be careful not to cut your pinkie and use care when trying to open casing.

You can buy batteries and change them. It is pretty easy, unless you are within the warranty period I don't think any store will take it back

Use Phillips head screwdriver. The screws come off and you can replace with 3 AAA batteries.

Hey Chris, to change the batteries, just look to the left of the yellow power-on button and you will see a hole that's a little deep, that's where the screw is located. Just loosen that one screw and the section below it will come off and expose the batteries. Hope this helps.
