- 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.
- 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
shaver.
- Do not use the supply unit in or near wall
sockets that contain an electric air freshener to
prevent irreparable damage to the supply unit.
Electromagnetic fields (EMF)
- This Philips appliance complies with all
applicable standards and regulations regarding

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.
For the best results on skin comfort, pre-trim your
beard if you have not shaved for 3 days or longer.
