Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning the shaver under the tap
Clean the shaver after every shave for optimal performance. For the best
cleaning results, we advise you to use Philips Cleaning spray (HQ110).
Always unplug and switch off the shaver before you clean it.
Note: 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.
Be careful with hot water. Always check if the water is not too hot, to
prevent burning your hands.
Never dry the shaving unit with a towel or tissue, as this may damage the
shaving heads.
1 Place your thumb under the shaving unit and push the shaving unit off
the shaver (Fig. 12).
Note: Make sure to hold the shaving unit while doing so.
2 Rinse the hair chamber under the tap (Fig. 13).
3 Rinse the inside of the shaving unit under a warm tap (Fig. 14).
4 Rinse the outside of the shaving unit under a warm tap (Fig. 15).
Thorough cleaning
5 Turn the lock anticlockwise and remove the retaining frame from the
shaving unit (Fig. 16).
6 Remove and clean one shaving head at a time (Fig. 17). Each shaving
head consists of a cutter and a guard.
Note: Do not clean more than one cutter and guard at a time, since they
are all matching sets. If you accidentally mix up the cutters and guards, it
may take several weeks before optimal shaving performance is restored.
7 Remove the cutter from the shaving guard and rinse it with water (Fig.
18).
8 Rinse the inside and outside of the shaving guard with water (Fig. 19).
9 Put the shaving heads back into the shaving unit (Fig. 20). Make sure that
the projections of the shaving heads fit exactly into the recesses.
10 Put the retaining frame back into the shaving unit and turn the lock
clockwise.
11 Reattach the shaving unit (Fig. 22).
Note: If you cannot reattach the shaving unit properly, check if you have
inserted the shaving heads properly and if the retaining frame is locked.
12 Carefully shake off excess water, open the shaving unit again and leave it
open to let the shaving unit dry completely.
Caution: Be careful not to hit the shaving unit against anything while
you shake off excess water.
Cleaning the trimmer
Clean the trimmer every time you have used it.
1 Switch off the shaver.
2 Push the trimmer release slide downwards to open the trimmer (Fig. 10).
3 Rinse the trimmer under a hot tap (Fig. 23).

Tip: For optimal trimming performance, lubricate the trimmer teeth with
a drop of sewing machine oil every six months (Fig. 24).
