5. Instruccions de funcionament
5.1 Tècniques d'afaitat
The Philips Series 9000 Shaver is designed for both wet and dry shaving. For best results, ensure your skin is clean before shaving.
- Afaitat en sec: Per a un afaitat ràpid i còmode, utilitzeu l'afaitadora sobre la pell seca.
- Afaitat humit: For a more comfortable shave, use with shaving foam or gel. This can help reduce skin irritation.
Move the shaver in small, circular motions over your face, applying gentle pressure. The 360-D Flexhead adapts to the contours of your face, ensuring maximum skin contact and reducing missed hairs.

5.2 SkinIQ Technology
The shaver features SkinIQ Technology, which senses your beard density 125 times per second and automatically adjusts the motor power to match the thickness of your whiskers. This ensures an efficient and comfortable shave, even in dense areas.

5.3 Super Lift & Cut Technology
Equipat amb Super Lift & Cut Technology, the shaver's 72 self-sharpening blades work in two stages: the first blade lifts the hair, and the second blade cuts it below skin level for a close and smooth shave. The micro-bead coating on the shaving head reduces friction by 25% compared to non-coated materials, minimizing skin irritation.
