Troubleshooting
Shaver performance has not improved after replacing heads.
Ensure the new heads are correctly seated in the shaver head unit and that the unit is securely closed. Check that you are using genuine Philips HS740 heads.
Heads feel rough or cause irritation.
Make sure the shaver head unit is properly closed. Sometimes, a quick rinse of the new heads under warm water can help remove any manufacturing dust. If irritation persists, try a different replacement cycle.
Shaver is not cutting hairs effectively.
Confirm compatibility with your shaver model (HS5980, HS7980, HS9980). Ensure the heads were installed correctly and are facing the right direction. Regular cleaning of the heads after use can also help maintain cutting efficiency.
