Before First Use

Charge the shaver before you start using it (see 'Charging'). Make sure the shaver is switched off before you start charging it.

Important

Only use the power cord provided to charge the shaver.
The power plug transforms 100-240V AC to less than 24V DC.

Charging

Charging or recharging at temperatures below 40°F/4.5°C or higher than 95°F/35°C adversely affects the lifetime of batteries.
If the shaver is subjected to a major change in temperature, pressure, or humidity, let it acclimatize for 30 minutes before using.
Charging or recharging requires 10 hours.
A fully charged shaver has a cordless shaving time of up to 30 minutes.
The shaving time may be less as a result of your shaving behavior, cleaning habits, or beard type.
When charging the shaver for the first time or after a long period of non-use, charge for at least 10 hours.

Connect the cord directly to the shaver and plug the charging plug into any 100V to 240V AC outlet. Use only the power cord provided.
- An adaptor plug may be necessary for charging plug usage in some foreign countries. Use an attachment plug adaptor of the proper configuration for the power outlet. The charging plug will automatically convert to work on 100V to 240V AC systems.
  - The charging light on the shaver will light up green.
Charging and recharging require a full 10 hours. A fully charged shaver has a cordless shaving time of up to 30 minutes.
- When the battery is fully charged, the charging light will remain green.
The charging light will turn orange when the battery is almost empty (5 or fewer shaving minutes left). When you turn the shaver OFF, the charging light continues to light up orange for a few seconds.

Recharging

Recharging requires 10 hours. Recharge when the charging light on the shaver display lights up.

Put It To The Test & Shaving Tips

21 Day Trial and Conversion Process: It is a fact that your skin and beard need time to adjust to a new shaving system.
Use your new shaver exclusively for 3 weeks to fully enjoy the closeness of a Philips Norelco shave.
At first, you may not get as close a shave as you expect, or your face may even become slightly irritated. This is normal since your beard and skin need time to adjust. Invest 3 weeks, and you'll soon experience the full joy of your new shaver.
Stick with it! If you alternate shaving methods during the adjustment period, it may make it more difficult to adapt to the Philips Norelco shaving system.
If you are still not convinced after 21 days, Philips Norelco will refund you the full purchase price as long as the request is received within 45 days of purchase.

How To Shave With An Electric Shaver

This symbol on the shaver indicates that the shaver can be used in both the bath and shower.
The shaver will not operate while the power cord is connected to an electrical outlet.
For hygienic reasons, the shaver should only be used by one person.
Use this shaver for its intended household use as described in this manual.
Shaving with a clean face gives the best results.

Turn the shaver ON by pressing the on/off button once. Shave against the direction of beard growth using circular movements.
Stretch your skin with your free hand so the blades can cut whiskers. Gently press the shaver to your skin so the floating heads can follow the contours of your face. DO NOT press too hard. Too much pressure can pinch the skin into the combs.
Turn the shaver OFF by pressing the on/off button once.
Clean the shaver after each use.

Trimming

To groom sideburns and moustache:

Turn shaver ON.
Push down the spring-release trimmer switch. The trimmer can be activated while the shaver is running.
Move trimmer in downward strokes with gentle pressure.
Close trimmer by pressing trimmer down.
Turn shaver OFF.

Setup Guide

To set up and operate your Philips Norelco TripleHeader Shaver AT620:

Remove the shaver from the packaging and wash your hands before use.
Charge the shaver for at least 8 hours before first use to ensure maximum battery performance.
Wet your face with warm water or shaving cream to prepare for shaving.
Hold the shaver at a slight angle and shave in the direction of hair growth to avoid ingrown hairs and irritation.
Rinse the shaver under running water after use and clean with a brush provided.

Philips Norelco TripleHeader Shaver AT620 Cleaning

Always switch the shaver OFF, unplug, and remove the power cord before cleaning.
Never clean, remove, or replace the head assembly while the motor is on.
Do not apply pressure to combs. Do not touch shaving heads with hard objects as this may dent or damage precision-made slotted combs.
Do not use the shaver if combs are damaged or broken. Facial injury may occur.
Do not use compressed air, abrasives, scourers, or aggressive liquids such as gasoline or acetone to clean the shaver.

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 TO AVOID BURNING OR SCALDING HANDS.

Regular cleaning guarantees better shaving results.
Do not immerse the shaver in water.
While rinsing shaving heads, water may drip out of the base of the shaver. This is a normal occurrence.

Always turn the shaver OFF, unplug from the outlet, and remove the power cord from the shaver.
Place your thumb under the shaving unit and push the shaving unit off the shaver while holding it in your hand.
Clean the hair chamber by running it under hot water.
Clean the inside of the shaving unit by running it under hot water.
Clean the outside of the shaving unit by running it under hot water.
Reattach the shaving unit and shake off excess water.

Be careful not to hit the shaving unit against anything while shaking off excess water.
NOTE: Do not wipe or dry the shaving heads with a towel or tissue. This could damage the shaving heads.

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.

Turn shaver OFF, remove the charging plug from the outlet, and unplug the power cord from the shaver.
Place your thumb under the shaving unit and push the shaving unit off the shaver while holding it in your hand.
Turn the lock counterclockwise (1) to unlock and remove the retaining frame (2).
Remove and clean one set of cutters and combs at a time.
Separate the cutter from the comb. Clean the inside and outside of the cutter by rinsing under hot water.
Important: Do not clean more than one cutter and comb at a time, as they are matching sets. If you accidentally interchange the cutters and combs, it could take several weeks before optimal shaving performance is restored.
Clean the inside and outside of the comb by rinsing under hot water.
- 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.
Replace the set back into the shaving unit. Make sure that the projections of the shaving head fit exactly into the recesses.
Repeat the process for the other two sets of cutters and combs.
Put the retaining frame back into the shaving unit.
Reattach the shaving unit and shake excess water off the shaver.
Note: If the shaving unit does not close smoothly, ensure that you inserted the shaving heads properly and that the retaining frame is locked.
Remove the shaving unit and let the shaver air dry thoroughly.

After Each Use Trimmer

Turn shaver OFF.
Push down the spring-release trimmer switch.
Clean the trimmer by rinsing under hot water and allow it to air dry thoroughly.
Lubricate the trimmer teeth with one drop of mineral oil every 6 months.
