Cleaning & Maintenance
How To Use
CARE FOR YOUR SHAVER
To ensure long lasting performance of
your shaver, clean the head assembly
regularly. The easiest and the most
hygienic way to clean the shaver is by
rinsing the shaving head after use with
warm water.Always keep the protec-
tive headguard on the shaving head
when the shaver is not in use.
AFTER EACH USE
1. Ensure the shaver is turned off.
2. Press the release buttons to open
the shaver head.
3. Blow on the foils to remove any
loose debris.
4. Brush or rinse the accumulated
hair from the main body of the shav-
er, shaving head and cutter assembly.
5. Leave the head assembly open to
let the shaver dry completely.
6. Return the shaving head to its
original position and snap in place.
NOTE:
n Ensure that the shaver is turned off
when cleaning.
n Do not clean the shaving foils with
the brush.
n At regular intervals, put a drop of
sewing machine oil onto the foils
and cutters head.
REPLACING THE FOILS & CUTTERS
Signs that your foils and cutters need
replacing:
n Irritation: As foils get worn, you may
experience skin irritation.
n Pulling: As the cutters wear, your
shave may not feel as close and you
may feel your cutter pulling on your
hair.
n Wear: You may notice that the
cutters have worn through the foils.
To ensure the continued highest quality
performance from your shaver, we
recommend that foils and cutters are
replaced every 6 months.
NOTE: The replacement part for your
shaver model is SPW-440.
