Philips HP2750/41 User manual

Give your new Razor a chance!
Like many new products, your Philips Lady Shave
Razor may take a little getting used to. If you are
using a rechargeable razor for the first time, or if
you’ve been using a different brand, your skin may
need time to adapt. Give yourself a little time to prac-
tice and determine the best stroking motions for the
best shave.
Use it exclusively for 3 to 4 weeks, or a bit longer
for sensitive skin. If you alternate shaving
or other hair removal methods during this
adjustment period, it may make it more difficult
to adapt to the Philips shaving system.
At first you may not get as close a shave as you
expect, or your skin may become slightly irritated.
This is normal as your skin adjusts. After this adjust-
ment period, you’ll find that you can remove hair with-
out irritating your skin, for a close, smooth shave.
The Philips Lady Shave Razor... the choice for close,
smooth shaving results.
