Skin adaptation period
Your first 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. To allow your
skin to adapt to this new appliance, we advise you to shave regularly
(at least 3 times a week) and exclusively with this appliance for a
period of 3 weeks.
English

- For the best results on skin comfort, pre-trim your beard if you
have not shaved for 3 days or longer.
Dry shaving

2 Move the shaving heads over your skin in circular movements to
catch all hairs growing in different directions (Fig. 20). Make sure
each shaving head is fully in contact with the skin. Exert gentle
pressure for a close, comfortable shave.
Note: Circular movements provide better shaving results than
straight movements.
3 Clean the appliance after use.
Wet shaving
For a more comfortable shave, you can also use this appliance on a
wet face with shaving foam or shaving gel.
To shave with shaving foam or shaving gel, follow the steps below:
1 Apply some water to your skin (Fig. 21).

3 Rinse the shaving unit under the tap to ensure that the shaving
unit glides smoothly over your skin (Fig. 23).

Problem
The shaver is not
entirely clean
after I clean it in
the SmartClean
system.
Possible cause Solution
You have not
placed the shaver in
the SmartClean
system properly, so
there is no electrical
connection
between the
SmartClean system
and the shaver.
The battery of the
shaver is not
charged sufficiently.
The cleaning
cartridge needs to
be replaced.
You have used
another cleaning
fluid than the
original Philips
cleaning cartridge.
The drain of the
cleaning cartridge is
blocked.
Press down the top cap
(‘click’) to ensure a proper
connection between the
shaver and the SmartClean
system.
If the battery of the shaver
is not charged sufficiently,
the SmartClean system
may not work properly. The
shaver needs to be able to
switch on briefly during the
rinsing phase. Charge the
shaver for a short time
before you use the
SmartClean system to
clean your shaver.
Replace the cleaning
cartridge.
Only use the original
Philips cleaning cartridge.
Remove the cartridge from
the SmartClean system and
push the hairs down the
drain with a toothpick.
