Preparing for use

The appliance runs on two R6 AA 1.5-volt batteries. We

shaving.

compartment. (Fig. 3)

3 Put two batteries in the battery

compartment (Fig. 4).

The appliance does not work if the batteries have been

placed incorrectly.

upwards (Fig. 6).

the Philips shaving system.

you have used it, to prevent damage (Fig. 8).

Cleaning

Regular cleaning guarantees better shaving performance.

The easiest and most hygienic way to clean the appliance

is to rinse the shaving unit and the hair chamber with hot

water every time you have used the appliance.

Never rinse the shaver when the battery compartment

is open. Always make sure the cap of the battery

compartment is in place and properly locked before you

start rinsing the shaver.

Be careful with hot water. Always check if the water is

not too hot, to prevent your hands from getting burnt.

Every day: shaving unit and hair chamber

1 Switch off the shaver.

2 Remove the shaving unit. (Fig. 9)

3 Rinse the outside of the shaving unit under a hot

tap for some time (Fig. 10).

4 Rinse the inside of the shaving unit under a hot tap

for some time. (Fig. 11)

5 Rinse the hair chamber under a hot tap for some

time. (Fig. 12)

6 Put the shaving unit back onto the shaver and shake

off excess water.

this may damage the shaving heads.

optimal shaving performance is restored.
