Be careful with hot water. Always
check if the water is not too hot, to
prevent burning your hands.
Never dry the shaving unit with a
towel or tissue, as this may damage
the shaving heads.
1
Rinse the shaving unit under a
warm tap.
Note: You can also clean the
shaving unit with the cleaning
brush supplied.
2 Turn the shaver up side down and
rinse the openings in the bottom
of the shaving head holders.
Switch on the shaver briefly
during rinsing (Fig. 10).
3 Open both shaving head holders
(Fig. 11).
4 Rinse the hair chambers and
shaving head holders under the
tap (Fig. 12).
5 Carefully shake off excess water
and let air dry completely.
6 Close the shaving head holders
(Fig. 13).
Thorough cleaning
The shaving unit consists of two
shaving heads. Clean one shaving
head at a time by following the steps
below.
1
Open the shaving head holder
(Fig. 11).
2 To unlock the retaining frame,
gently squeeze both sides of the
retaining frame and flip open the
frame (Fig. 14).
3 Remove the shaving head. Each
shaving head consists of a cutter
and a guard (Fig. 15).
Note: Do not clean more than one
cutter and guard at a time, since
they are all matching sets. If you
accidentally mix up the cutters
and guards, it may take several
weeks before optimal shaving
performance is restored.
4 Remove the cutter from the
shaving guard (Fig. 16).
5 Rinse both parts with water.
6 After cleaning, place the cutter
back into the guard with the cutter
legs pointing downwards (Fig. 17).
7 Put the shaving head back into
the shaving head holder (Fig. 18).
Note: Make sure that the shaving
heads with the projections fit
exactly onto the hooks of the
shaving head holder when placing
them (Fig. 20). The shaving heads
supplied with this appliance either
have notches or projections. Both
shaving systems are the same.
8 Push the retaining frame back
onto the shaving head holder until
you hear a click (Fig. 19).
9 Close the shaving head holder
(Fig. 13).
Replacement
Replacing the shaving heads
For maximum shaving performance,
we advise you to replace the shaving
heads every two years. Replace
damaged shaving heads
immediately. Always replace the
shaving heads with original Philips
shaving heads (see 'Ordering
accessories').
1
Switch off the appliance.
2 Open the shaving unit by opening
both shaving head holders (Fig.
11).
3 To unlock the retaining frames,
gently squeeze both sides of the
retaining frames and flip open the
shaving heads (Fig. 14).
