Shaving with the cord If the shaver is completely discharged (see section «Shaver display») and you do not have the time to recharge in the Clean&RenewTM station, you may also shave with the shaver connected to an electrical outlet via the special cord set. Automatic cleaning After each shave, return the shaver to the Clean&RenewTM station and proceed as described above in the section «Before shaving».

Each cartridge, if not used daily, should be replaced after approximately 8 weeks. Quick cleaning Press the foil release buttons (12) to lift the shaver foil (do not remove the foil completely). Thorough manual cleaning Manual cleaning is recommended only when the Clean&RenewTM station is not available, e. Using the brush, clean the cutter block and the inner area of the pivoting head.
