System to start the cleaning program.
The cleaning program has two phases, the cleaning

or drying symbol stops ashing and the holder returns
to its starting position. The shaver may still be wet

during the cleaning program, the program aborts. The
holder remains in its current position. When you put
the adapter back into the wall socket, the holder moves
to the highest position.

level, the cleaning symbol and the ‘uid low’
symbol start to ash with intervals and the holder
