9
English

- Never use compressed air,
scouring pads, abrasive
cleaning agents or aggressive
liquids such as petrol or
acetone to clean the appliance.
- 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
charge the shaver.
- When the cleaning system is
ready for use, do not move it to
prevent leakage of cleaning
fluid.
10 English

- Water may drip from the socket
at the bottom of the shaver
when you rinse it. This is normal
and not dangerous because all
electronics are enclosed in a
sealed power unit inside the

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

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
- Select your personal comfort settings (see ‘The
display’).
- To ensure the best result, we advise you to pre-
trim your beard if you have not shaved for 3
days or longer.
Dry shaving
1Switch on the appliance.
The display lights up for a few seconds.
2Move the shaving heads over your skin in
circular movements to catch all hairs growing in
different directions. Exert gentle pressure for a
close comfortable shave.
Note: Circular movements provide better
shaving results than straight movements.
3Clean the appliance after use.
Wet shaving
You can also use this appliance on a wet face with
shaving foam or shaving gel.
To shave with shaving foam or shaving gel, follow
the steps below:
18 English

1Apply some water to your skin.
2Apply shaving foam or shaving gel to your skin.
3Rinse the shaving unit under the tap to ensure
that the shaving unit glides smoothly over your
skin.
4Switch on the appliance.
5Move the shaving heads over your skin in

setting, but also at different length settings. You
can also use it to pre-trim any long hairs before
shaving for a more comfortable shave.
The length settings on the beard styler attachment

cutting and range from 1 to 5mm.
