4 Slide the shaving heads out of the retaining
frame and clean them one by one.
Do not mix up the cutters and the guards.
This is essential since each cutter has been
ground with its corresponding guard for optimal
performance. If you accidentally mix up the sets, it
could take several weeks before optimal shaving
performance is restored.
5 Clean the cutter with the short-bristled side of
the cleaning brush.
Brush carefully in the direction of the arrow.
 Clean the guard with the cleaning brush.
7 Slide the shaving heads back into the retaining
frame and put the retaining frame back into the
shaving unit.
 Put the shaving unit back onto the shaver.
Extra thorough cleaning
For extra thorough cleaning, put the shaving heads in
a degreasing liquid (e.g. alcohol) every six months.
To remove the shaving heads, follow steps 1 to 4
described above. After cleaning, lubricate the central
point on the inside of the guards with a drop of
sewing machine oil to prevent wear of the shaving
heads.
Trimmer
Clean the trimmer every time you have used it.
1 Switch off the shaver. Remove the mains plug
from the wall socket and pull the appliance plug
out of the shaver.
