Charging
-Charging or using the product at
temperatures below 40°F (4.5°C) or higher
than 95°F (35°C) adversely affects the
lifespan of the battery.
-Do not charge the shaver in a pouch or
travel case.
-The power plug transforms 100-240V AC to
less than 24V DC.
Charge the shaver before you use it for the first
time and when the display indicates that the
battery is almost empty.
Charging takes approx. 1 hour. A fully charged
shaver has a shaving time of up to 60 minutes.
This shaver is suitable for use in the bath or
shower. For safety reasons, it is therefore
not possible to use the shaver while it is
connected to the power outlet for charging.
Note: Depending on your shaving/styling
behavior and beard type, the operating time
may vary over time.

21-Day adaptation process
-21 Day Trial and Conversion Process. It is a
fact that your skin and beard need time to
adjust to a new grooming system.
-Use your new shaver exclusively for 3 weeks
to fully enjoy the closeness of a Philips
Norelco shave.
-At first you may not get as close a shave as
you expect, or your face may even become
slightly irritated. This is normal since your
beard and skin will need time to adjust.
Invest 3 weeks and you'll soon experience
the full joy of your new shaver.
-Stick with it! If you alternate shaving
methods during the adjustment period, it
may make it more difficult to adapt to the
Philips Norelco shaving system.
-If you are still not convinced after 21 days,
Philips Norelco will refund you the full
purchase price as long as the request is
received within 45 days of purchase.
Switching the product on and off
