Shaving tips for a close, quick and comfortable shave
The best results are obtained if the skin is dry. So
preferably shave before washing or some time afterwards.
If required, apply a preshave lotion. This can be
particularly helpful if the climate is warm and humid.
The Philishave system gives you a quick, close and
comfortable shave. Just move the shaving unit quickly
over the skin.
For the best results stretch the skin to bring the hairs into
an upright position.
Then move the shaving unit against the direction of the
growth of the hairs.
The trimmer has been especially designed for grooming
sideburns, moustache and beard.
The trimmer is not required for long hairs in the neck area;
these hairs can easily be shaved off with the shaving unit.
Maintenance and cleaning
(see the drawings on pages 32 and 33)
Always switch the shaver off before carrying out
maintenance or cleaning.
The rotating cutter blades of the Philishave system keep
the shaved stubble neatly inside the shaving unit. In
general, the shaving unit needs cleaning only once a week.
Every week
