The batteries for this shaver are built-in. Do not try to replace the batteries yourself.

If you have problems with the built-in batteries, take the appliance to your local service center to have them checked and/or replaced by a professional.

It would not be a good idea to try to use the shaver with those batteries...even if you cleaned them. If you intend to use the shaver, you should replace the batteries. You will find correct batteries at shaversource.com

Remove the head, then remove the screws. There is usually another screw under the pop-up trimmer so be sure to remove that one two. When ALL the screws are removed you can gently pry the case apart. Once you've done that you will need to desolder the battery connections from the circuit board and then solder in new ones. You'll need batteries with solder tabs which can be ordered from various online merchants including Radio Shack.

If the old batteries were corroded, that may have damaged the circuit board. If the batteries were getting hot before the shaver died, the heat may also have damaged the circuit board. It is also very possible that the salesperson did not do a good job installing them as they are not trained in replacing batteries in shavers.
