Before using your new Action Clean Razor Head
Cleaner, it is important to follow the instruc­tions below:

• You do not need to remove cutters and combs

from Razor Head Assembly to clean them in the
Action Clean Razor Head Cleaner. The whole
assembly piece can be cleaned as a complete unit.
If you do remove cutters and combs be careful
not to interchange them as they are matched
sets. If you do interchange cutters and

combs, the shaving performance may be
adversely affected for the next few shaves
until the blades reseat themselves.
