ENGLISH
Extra-thorough Cleaning Method
Do not mix up the cutters and combs as the
shaving performance may be adversely affected
for several weeks before optimal shaving
performance is restored.
1Turn shaver OFF, remove the charging plug
from the outlet and power cord from the
shaver.
C2Press the Shaver Head Release Button to
open the Shaver Head Assembly.
C3Pull the shaving unit off the shaver.
C4Turn the lock counterclockwise to unlock
(A) and remove the retaining frame (B).
C 5Remove and clean one set of cutters and
combs at a time.
19
A
B

C 6Separate the cutter from the comb and
clean it with the brush supplied. Use the
short bristled side of the brush.
Do not clean more than one cutter and comb
at a time, since they are all matching sets. If you
accidentally interchange the cutters and combs, it
could take several weeks before optimal shaving
performance is restored.
C 7Clean the inside and outside of the comb
with the brush supplied.
For optimum performance, shaver cutters and
combs should be cleaned in a degreasing liquid
(e.g. alcohol) and lubricated with one drop of
mineral oil (in the center of the head). This helps
prevent wear of the shaving heads.
C 8Replace the set back into the Shaver Head
Assembly.
Make sure that the two pointy edges of the
head fit exactly into the recesses.
9 Repeat the process for the other two sets
of cutters and combs.
10 Replace the frame and turn the lock
clockwise until it locks into place.
