clean the appliance.
Regular cleaning guarantees better shaving

Cleaning Spray (type no. HQ110) is available. Ask
your Philips dealer for information.
Note: Philips Shaving Head Cleaning Spray may not

Care Centre in your country about the availability in
your country.
You can also clean the shaver in the following way:
Every week: shaving unit and hair
chamber
1 Switch off the shaver.
2 Clean the top of the appliance with
the cleaning brush (Fig. 8).
3 Press the release button (1) and remove the
shaving unit (2) (Fig. 9).
4 Clean the inside of the hair chamber with the
cleaning brush (Fig. 10).

cleaning brush (Fig. 11).

Every two months: shaving heads
1 Switch off the shaver.

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.

of the cleaning brush (Fig. 14).
Brush carefully in the direction of the arrow.
6 Clean the guard with the cleaning
brush (Fig. 15).

frame and put the retaining frame back into
the shaving unit (Fig. 16).

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.

are damaged or worn. Replace them with HQ4 Ç
