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.
Caution: Be careful with hot water. Always check if the water is not
too hot, to prevent burning your hands.
Caution: Never dry the shaving unit with a towel or tissue, as this
may damage the shaving heads.
1 Place you 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 hot tap.
4 Rinse the outside of the shaving unit under a hot tap.
Thorough cleaning
5 Turn the lock anticlockwise (1) and remove the retaining frame (2)
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 (1) and turn the
lock clockwise (2) (Fig. 21).
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 excess water off the shaver.
Cleaning the trimmer (AT621, AT620 only)
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).
4 Close the trimmer (' click') (Fig. 11).
Tip: For optimal trimming performance, lubricate the trimmer teeth
with a drop of sewing machine oil every six months (Fig. 24).
