My Philips Shaver is not giving good results
If your Philips Shaver is not giving the desired results that you expected, read the possible
causes below and our advice on how to resolve them.
Your Philips Shaver is dirty
It is possible that the performance of your shaver has declined because it is dirty. There can
be hair or dirt particles stuck inside it, causing the shaving heads to not function correctly.
To fix this problem, clean your shaver thoroughly. If possible, remove the shaving heads and
clean your shaver from the inside as well. For detailed cleaning instructions, refer to your
user manual.
In some shavers, a cleaning reminder symbol will blink to let you know that the shaver
needs to be cleaned.
Your Philips Shaver is not assembled correctly
Another reason why your shaver might not be working properly is that it is not assembled
correctly. For full instructions on how to reassemble your shaver, refer to your user manual.
