Important

Read this user manual carefully before you use the
shaver and the Jet Clean System and save it for
future reference.

Note: In this user manual the term ‘appliances’ refers
to the shaver and the Jet Clean System. If your shaver
does not come with a Jet Clean System, it refers to the
shaver only.

General

Danger

- Make sure the adapter does not get wet.

Warning

- The adapter contains a transformer. Do not cut
off the adapter to replace it with another plug, as
this causes a hazardous situation.

- These appliances are not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliances by a person responsible for their safety.

- Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliances.

- Be careful with hot water when you clean the
appliances. Always check if the water is not too
hot, to prevent your hands from getting burnt.

Caution

- Never immerse the Jet Clean System and the
charger in water nor rinse them under the tap.

- The appliances and accessories are not
dishwasher-proof.

- Always place and use the appliances on a surface

that is uid-resistant.

ENGLISH8

- Use, charge and store the appliances at a
temperature between 5°C and 35°C.

- Only use the accessories supplied.

- The adapter transforms 100-240 volts to a safe
low voltage of less than 24 volts.

- Do not use the appliances and accessories if
they are damaged.

- If the adapter or any of the other accessories is
damaged, always have it replaced with one of the
original type in order to avoid a hazard.

- Water may leak from the socket at the bottom
of the shaver when you rinse it. This is normal
and not dangerous because all electronics are
enclosed in a sealed power unit inside the shaver.

- Only use the attachments to trim facial hair
(beard, moustache and sideburns).

Jet Clean system

Caution

- Only use the Jet Clean System with the original

HQ200 cleaning uid.

- Always place the Jet Clean System on a stable,
level and horizontal surface to prevent leakage.

- Never immerse the Jet Clean System in water.

- Empty the cleaning chamber and clean it
thoroughly by rinsing it with hot tap water every
15 days.

- The Jet Clean System thoroughly cleans but does
not disinfect your shaver, therefore do not share
the shaver with others.

- The cleaning chamber of the Jet Clean System is
not dishwasher-proof.

- When the Jet Clean System is ready for use, do

not move it to prevent leakage of cleaning uid.

Compliance with standards

- This shaver complies with the internationally
approved safety regulations and can be safely used
in the bath or shower and cleaned under the tap.

- These Philips appliances comply with all standards

regarding electromagnetic elds (EMF). If handled

properly and according to the instructions in this
user manual, the appliances are safe to use based

on scientic evidence available today.

The display

Note: Before you use the shaver for the rst time,

remove the protective foil from the display.

Charging

- Charging takes approx. 1 hour.

- When the shaver is charging, the minutes

indication ashes.

energy for one shave, the display shows 5 minutes
in red.

Battery fully charged

MINUTES LEFT

MINUTES LEFT

- When the battery is fully charged, the minutes
indication lights up continuously. After approx.
30 minutes, the display automatically switches off
again.

ENGLISH10

Note: The shaver is equipped with an intelligent self­learning system that monitors the shaver’s energy
consumption and converts the remaining battery
capacity into shaving minutes. The energy consumption
and therefore the remaining number of shaving
minutes depend on your skin and beard type and your
shaving behaviour (e.g. the use of shaving gel). If the
number of shaving minutes of the fully charged shaver
is less than 60 minutes, this is completely normal and
does not mean that the battery capacity of the shaver
has diminished.

Replace shaving unit

For maximum shaving performance, we advise you
to replace the shaving unit every two years.

the appliance is equipped with a replacement
reminder which is activated automatically after
approx. two years. The replacement reminder is
repeated with a beep and will reset at
3 successive shaves or until you reset the shaver.

Power-saving mode

The appliance is equipped with an automatic power­saving mode. When the shaver enters the power­saving mode, the light in the on/off button goes out
to save energy.

- When the appliance is switched off but detects
movement for 5 minutes (for instance when you
are travelling with the shaver in your suitcase), it
automatically goes into power-saving mode. This
mode prevents the shaver from being switched on
by accident.

, The lock symbol ashes on the display to indicate

that the appliance is in power-saving mode.

the on/off button.

unit or replace it.

Using the shaver

Shaving

Skin adaptation period

Your rst shaves may not bring you the result you

expect and your skin may even become slightly
irritated. This is normal. Your skin and beard need
time to adapt to any new shaving system.
We advise you to shave regularly (at least 3 times
a week) for a period of 3 weeks to allow your skin
to adapt to the new shaver. During this period, use
your new electric shaver exclusively and do not use
other shaving methods. If you use different shaving

methods, it is more difcult for your skin to adapt to

the new shaving system.
