Quick cleaning
Press the foil release buttons (12) to lift the shaver foil
(do not remove the foil completely). Switch on the shaver
for approx. 5–10 seconds so that the shaved stubbles can
fall out.
Thorough manual cleaning
Manual cleaning is recommended only when the
Clean&Renew™ station is not available, e.g. when travel-
ling.
Never use water to clean the shaver.
Remove the shaver foil and tap it out on a flat surface.
Using the brush, clean the inner area of the pivoting head.
However, do not clean the shaver foil nor the cutter block
with the brush as this may damage them.
If you do not use the Clean&Renew™ station for a longer
period of time, you should apply a drop of light machine
oil onto the shaver foil.
Cleaning the housing
Clean the housing of shaver and station from time to time
with a damp cloth, especially inside the opening of the
station where the shaver rests.
Replacing the cartridge
After having pressed the lift button (4) to open the
housing, wait for a few seconds before removing the used
cartridge.
Before discarding the used cartridge, make sure to close
the openings using the lid of the new cartridge, since the old
used cartridge will contain contaminated cleaning
new
solution.
The shaver indicator lights
Pilot light (20): the shaver is connected to the mains.
The red low-charge light (17) flashes when the battery
capacity has dropped below 20%, provided the shaver is
switched on. The remaining capacity will then be sufficient
for 2 to 3 shaves.
