Replacing shaving head
components
It is recommended that you replace
the system outer foil at least once a
year and the inner blade at least once
every 2 years to maintain your shav-
er’s cutting performance.
Replacing the system outer foil
(see fig. 20)
Squeeze the system outer foil re-
lease buttons and lift the system
outer foil upward to remove it. To in-
sert the new system outer foil, press
down until it snaps into place.
• Check that the gaps on both sides
of the system outer foil release
buttons and the system outer foil
are equal. If they are not equal,
there is a chance that the system
outer foil will become detached
during use, or shaving capabilities
will be deteriorated.
Replacing the inner blades
(see fig. 21)
Squeeze the system outer foil re-
lease buttons and lift the system
outer foil upward to remove it. Re-
move the inner blade one at a time
by grasping it firmly at both ends and
pulling straight away from the shaver.
Do not touch the metal parts of inner
blades.
To insert the new inner blade, hold
the blade one at a time at both ends
and press downward until it snaps
into the shaver.
