Cleaning the Shaving Unit

The shaving heads may be quickly cleaned after each use by rinsing with hot water: Water from the tap should be on a hot setting, BUT BE CAREFUL TO TEST WATER FIRST SO AS NOT TO BURN OR SCALD HANDS.

• Regular cleaning guarantees better shaving results.

2. Press the Shaver Head Release Button to open the Shaver Head Assembly.

3. Clean inside shaving heads and hair chamber by running under hot water.

   Be careful not to hit the shaving unit against anything while shaking off excess water.

   

6. Open Shaver Head Assembly again and leave open to air dry.

NOTE: Do not wipe or dry the shaving heads with a towel or tissue. This could damage the shaving heads.

• If you used foam or gel to shave, make sure to rinse all of it off to prevent residue build-up from clogging shaving heads.
• If the shaving unit becomes detached from the shaver, you can easily reattach it.
• You may also clean the hair chamber without water by using the supplied brush.

Extra-thorough Cleaning Method

Do not mix up the cutters and combs as the shaving performance may be adversely affected for several weeks before optimal shaving performance is restored.

1. Turn shaver OFF, remove the charging plug from the outlet and power cord from the shaver.
2. Press the Shaver Head Release Button to open the Shaver Head Assembly.

6. Separate the cutter from the comb and clean it with the short bristled side of the brush supplied.

7. Clean the inside and outside of the comb with the brush supplied.
   For optimum performance, shaver cutters and combs should be cleaned in a degreasing liquid (e.g. alcohol) and lubricated with one drop of mineral oil (in the center of the head). This helps prevent wear of the shaving heads.
8. Replace the set back into the Shaver Head Assembly.
   Make sure that the two pointy edges of the head fit exactly into the recesses.
9. Repeat the process for the other two sets of cutters and combs.
10. Replace the frame and turn the lock clockwise until it locks into place.

11. Insert the notch of the shaving unit into the slot in the top of the shaver (1) and then close the shaving unit (2).
    NOTE: If the shaving unit does not close smoothly, make sure you inserted the shaving heads properly and that the retaining frame is locked.
