◗The display provides the following
information:
◗Charging Indicator
C -Quick charge: You will hear a beep when you
connect the power cord to an electrical outlet.
The lights of the battery charge indicator light
up one after the other continuously.When the
bottom charging light slowly blinks, the shaver
contains enough energy for one shave.
-As charging continues, more and more lights
will blink and then light up continuously to
indicate what level the battery has been charged.
◗ Full Charge Indicator
C -When the battery has been fully charged,
all charging lights light up continuously.
After approximately 30 minutes the display
automatically switches off again.
- If the on/off button is pressed during or after
charging, the shaver will beep indicating the
shaver is still connected to the outlet.
◗Remaining Battery Capacity
C -The remaining battery capacity is indicated by

14_S9531_S9311.indd 12 12/15/14 2:41 PM

13
ENGLISH
◗Low Battery Indicator
C -When the battery is almost empty (5 or less
shaving minutes left), the bottom charging light
blinks orange and you will hear a beep.
C◗Personal Settings
Choose between three speed settings that best
fits your skin and hair type: slow for a more skin-
friendly shave, normal for a thorough shave and
fast for a high powered shave. Press the – or +
buttons and the bar lights up white continuously.
C◗Replacement Shaving Unit Indicator
Every year, depending on your shaving behavior,
the replacement shaving unit indicator lights up
white continuously, the arrows blink white and
you will hear a beep. See 'Replacing the Shaving
Unit' section for instructions to reset the shaver.
This reminds you that with new shaving heads
you will guarantee yourself optimal shaving
performance.
C ◗ Blocked Shaving Heads Indicator
If the display shows a blinking replacement
shaving unit and faucet, an orange exclamation
mark and the shaver beeps, clean the shaver
thoroughly before continuing to shave (see
‘Cleaning’). After cleaning, if the blinking
replacement shaving unit and faucet with
exclamation mark remain on the display,
immediately replace the shaving unit (see
‘Replacing the Shaving Unit’).

ENGLISH
C◗Cleaning Indicator
For optimal shaving performance, we
recommend cleaning the shaver after EACH use.
The blinking faucet will remind you the
shaving unit needs to be cleaned. This happens
after each shave.
◗Travel Lock
The shaver is equipped with a travel lock function.
You can use the travel lock function when you are
going to store the shaver for a longer period or if
you are going to take the shaver with you when
traveling. See ‘Travel Lock’ section for instructions
on how to use this function.
Charge Meter
◗Charge Meter monitors amount of remaining
battery power available. Remaining battery
capacity is based on the amount of power
consumed shaving per minute and is
dependent upon your skin and beard type,
whether you use pre-shave lotion, and how
often the trimmer is used.
◗Initially your shaver may need to go through 2
or 3 full charge/recharge cycles before
remaining battery capacity indicators begin to
display your accurate battery power left.
Before First Use
◗Charge the shaver before you start using it
(see ‘Charging’). Make sure the shaver is
switched off before you start charging it.

Put ItToTheTest & ShavingTips
◗21 Day Trial and Conversion Process.It is a fact
that your skin and beard need time to adjust to
a new shaving 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.
