they have been given
supervision or instruction
concerning use of the
appliance in a safe way and

10 English

- If your shaver comes with a
cleaning system, always use
the original Philips cleaning
fluid (cartridge or bottle,
depending on the type of
cleaning system).
- Always place the cleaning
system on a stable, level and
horizontal surface to prevent
leakage.
- If your cleaning system uses a
cleaning cartridge, always make
sure the cartridge compartment
is closed before you use the
cleaning system to clean or

ready for use, do not move it to
prevent leakage of cleaning
fluid.
11

- Water may drip from the socket
at the bottom of the shaver
when you rinse it. This is normal

near wall sockets that contain
an electric air freshener to
prevent irreparable damage to
the supply unit.

If the appliance overheats during charging, the
exclamation mark flashes orange. When this

Blocked shaving heads
If the shaving heads are blocked, the exclamation
mark lights up orange continuously. The
replacement reminder and the cleaning reminder
flash white alternately and you hear a sound. In
this case, the motor cannot run because the
shaving heads are soiled or damaged.
If the shaving heads are soiled, you have to clean
them. If the shaving heads are damaged, you have
to replace them.
Charging

time and when the display indicates that the

Shaving
Skin adaptation period
Your first shaves may not bring you the result you
expect and your skin may even become slightly
irritated. This is normal. Your skin and beard need
time to adapt to any new shaving system. To allow
your skin to adapt to this new appliance, we advise
you to shave regularly (at least 3 times a week)
and exclusively with this appliance for a period of
3 weeks.
Shaving tips
- To ensure the best result, we advise you to pre-
trim your beard if you have not shaved for 3
days or longer.

circular movements.
