Troubleshooting

Shaver not turning on

Ensure the shaver is charged. Check the power connection and try a different outlet. If the travel lock is engaged, press and hold the power button for 3 seconds to deactivate it.

Poor shaving performance

Clean the shaving heads thoroughly under running water. Ensure the shaving heads are not worn; replace them if they are older than 2 years (SH71 model). Check for any hair blockages.

Shaver not charging

Ensure the power adapter is securely connected to the shaver and the power outlet. Clean the charging contacts on the shaver and the charging stand/adapter. Try a different power outlet.

Skin irritation after shaving

Ensure you are using the correct shaving technique (gentle, circular motions). Try using the shaver with shaving foam or gel for added lubrication. Allow your skin a few days to adapt if you are new to this shaver.
