This product is equipped with SenseIQ technology which intelligently detects your beard density and shaving technique. For a better technique, you can get personalized shaving advice in the app.

You get advice in 2 ways: guided shaves in real time and synchronized shaves. We advise you to start with the guided shave to enhance your shaving experience.

• Correct handling of your product will contribute to the best shaving results.
• Follow the advice obtained from the synchronized shaves and the personalized programs.

Shaving

You can use this product either wet or dry, or even in the shower. For a wet shave, apply some water and shaving foam or gel to your skin and rinse the shaving heads under the tap with warm water before following the steps below.

1. Switch on the product.

2. Move the shaving heads over your skin in circular movements to catch all hairs growing in different directions. Make sure each shaving head is fully in contact with the skin. Exert gentle pressure for a close, comfortable shave.

3. Switch off and clean the product after each use.

4. Use the narrow sides of the shaving unit to shave in hard-to-reach areas such as along your jawline and under your nose.

SenseIQ: When you have finished shaving you receive feedback on the handle. The Motion Control sensor icon lights up in various colors, giving you feedback on your overall shave.

• When you shave in the correct motion circular movements), the Motion Control sensor icon lights up green.
• When your shaving motion can be improved, the Motion Control sensor icon lights up orange. See the app for details and advice.

21- Day adaptation process

• 21 Day Trial and Conversion Process. It is a fact that your skin and beard need time to adjust to a new grooming 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 will 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.
