What do the symbols on my Philips Series 7000 shaver mean?

A small symbol of a power plug with an arrow below it means that the shaver cannot be used when connected to a power source.

Disconnect your shaver from the power source before switching it on.

A symbol with 3 water drops or droplets means that your shaver needs cleaning. This icon will appear automatically after every shave.

Clean your shaver using the instructions provided in the user manual (Tip: the user manual is also available online).

Along with the three drops, the blue crescent-shaped icon above it starts pulsing when the cleaning is in progress.

If you remove the shaver from the Philips Quick Clean Pod or press the on/off button during the cleaning program, and the icon starts flashing slowly, it means that the cleaning process was interrupted before completion.

To continue the cleaning programme, place the shaver back in the cleaning pod within 4 seconds. If this timeframe has passed, the cleaning program needs to be restarted by pressing the on/off button of the shaver again.

A single horizontal bar or line indicates that your shaver's battery is low.

Charge your shaver by connecting it to a power source.

When your shaver is charging, the lines will fill from the bottom, first flashing, then turning solid, until all of the lines light up and the shaver is fully charged.

An icon combining the letters I and Q indicates that the shaver's integrated SkinIQ technology is monitoring your shave.

When you have finished shaving, you'll receive feedback on the handle. The Motion Control sensor icon lights up in various colours, giving you feedback on your overall shave.

1. When you shave in the correct motion (circular movements), the Motion Control sensor icon lights up green.
2. When your shaving motion can be improved, the Motion Control sensor icon lights up orange. See the app for details and advice.

When the travel lock is activated, a small padlock symbol appears on the shaver handle. This prevents the shaver from turning on automatically during travel or storage.

Refer to the user manual (also available online) for information regarding disabling and enabling the travel lock.
Tip: you can enable or disable the travel lock by holding down the power button for approximately 5 seconds.

A small icon of a mobile phone with a speech/dialogue/notification symbol indicates either that your shaver is communicating with the GroomTribe app or that the shaver's memory is nearly full.

Sync your shaves regularly with the GroomTribe app for insights into your shaving performance.
