How to use the Quick Clean Pod with Philips Shavers

This video shows you how to clean your Philips Shaver with the Quick Clean Pod.
1. Remove the top of the Quick Clean Pod and place the cartridge without the lid into the QCP.
2. Put the top back and turn it clockwise until it clicks.
3. Place the shave into the QCP and turn the shaver on.
4. Cleaning takes one minute, but leave it in the QCP to dry.
Replace the cleaning fluid cartridge if necessary. If you have a connected shaver you can check your cartridge usage in the app.
This video is applicable for the following model numbers: S5579, S5584, S5586, S7782, S7783, S7786, S7788, S7731, S7732, S7735

Thanks to this innovation, my father in law can have a stress free shave again. He gave up on manual razors because he has a very shaky hand. Also to manually clean it was a nightmare for him once a week. Thank you Philips R&D department 👍

Good information

[@KaiSchmalenbach]

a step backwards, the earlier 7000 was being charged in the cleaning pod, now it's the other way round, why? and why are you still wasting tons of plastic instead of providing the fluid in a bottle? is it because everyone would be aware, that this flusid is expensive like a pretty awesome single malt or wine? it adds up to just below 40€/Liter. WOW

I don’t really mind it at all. It makes the cleaning base less bulky and easier to clean it out and up. Plus I like that I don’t always have to have it plugged in. I’d rather have to plug the razor in once a week to charge vs keeping the base plugged in all the time.

I have just starting using the Quick Clean Pod which has replaced the powered Jet cleaner used with my previous shaver. I have a couple of bottles of the Jet Clean Solution left over and was wondering if this solution could be used to replenish the Quick Clean Pod cartridges? One comment I would make regarding the Quick Clean Pod is that the shaver doesn't dry off properly if left in the pod, with the result that shaving performance is impaired.

[@Philips]

Hi three, thank you for your question. Yes, you can use the leftover Jet Clean solution with the Quick Clean Pod. However, we recommend transitioning to Quick Clean Pod cartridges once your Jet Clean solution runs out, as the Quick Clean Pod solution is specifically formulated to meet the needs of the new razors. To ensure optimal drying, please be careful not to overfill the Quick Clean Pod cartridges, as this could prevent the shaver from drying completely overnight. If you're still experiencing issues with drying, please reach out to us with more information about your process (steps taken, waiting time, and the condition of the shaver afterward). We're here to assist you further and ensure your shaver performs at its best. The shaver should dry completely overnight. If you have any additional questions, please get in touch via Social Media.

So many confusing comments. Once it’s cleaned, do you leave it standing upright in the cleaning dock? Or do you need to remove it from the dock? Your comments advise both, but clearly one options is the ‘right’ option. Can anyone else help?

Hi Dwight, thanks for getting in touch with us. We see that you are looking for the best step after cleaning the Philips Shaver using the Philips Quick Clean Pod. Please note that cleaning takes approximately one minute, but we recommend leaving the shaver in the quick-clean pod to dry for some hours before storing it. We hope this clarifies.

0:50 "but leave the shaver to dry for some hours before storing it" ok, but where do I let it dry? open or lying? in the cleansing base or outside? There is not a single video on the entire internet or official page that says that part of "drying".

Philips, This is a bad recommendation. It is best to let the shaver dry without taking it out of the station. Then nothing will drip from the shaver.

[@Philips]

Thank you for getting in touch with us, Sander. Each Philips cleaning cartridge is effective for up to three months. We would like to inform you that yes, you can keep the cartridge in the pod for three months. If you use the cleaning system weekly, then the cleaning fluid in a cartridge should be enough for three months. If you are a more regular user, then the cartridge will need to be replaced much earlier, possibly within a month. The Philips Cleaning cartridge comes with a special cleaning fluid designed for this device. Please do not try to refill the cartridge with a different kind of cleaning solution. This can damage your device. We hope this information helps you. If you have any additional questions, please get in touch via Social Media.

I had the older style cleaning pod with the long neck on it, but I bought a new shaver and the cleaning station is smaller and round. The cleaning pods from the old system will not fit into the new cleaning station. However, the cleaning liquid is the same, so even though it says do not refill, when the new style pod is ready to be changed, why can't I clean it real well, and then pour the unused liquid from the old style pods? The old style pods do hold a bit more liquid than the newer pods, so perhaps just use a bit less, but what is the harm? No sense in wasting the old style pod's liquid?

[@Philips]

Hi Louise, thank you for reaching out to us. In response to your question, we would like to inform you that you can use the liquid from the old cartridges in the QCP (Quick Clean Pod), but the original cartridges from the QCP are preferable. This will not be a direct negative; both solutions have their own specific compounds, and the QCP solution is better suited to the needs of the new razors. However, if you use the Jet Clean Solution, there will be no advantages. If you have any additional questions, please get in touch via Social Media.

[@Exarion251]

This reply is late but maybe it can still help you. So personally I think you might be good, but I would watch out for a few things. First of all I think you will get the empty warning a lot sooner, because the fluid level will be lower. Second you might get issues with hairs, the cleaning cartridge contains a set of ridges and is made like a maze to catch hairs and keep them from getting back to your shaver or into the pump. If I were you, I'd keep using it this way until it's empty, which it probably is by now, but I'd take extra care to flush out the hair pieces before using the station.

En gång i månaderna ska man även ta ut rakbladen för skölja dem individuellt. Ifall du använder en rengöringsstation så är vätskan 10 gånger mer effektivare än vatten och kan genomföras varje dag. Tänk på om du använder rakapparaten med raklödder, rakgel eller förbehandlingsprodukter ska du skölja rakhuvudena noga innan behandlnigen. ☺️ /Oscar

Thank you for your question, Joakim. We would like to let you know that it is not necessary to remove hair from the shaver before putting it in the cleaning pod. Here, the Quick Clean Pod uses high-pressure jets to fire three concentrated streams of cleaning fluid directly into the shaving unit, removing cut hair. So there is no need to remove hair before use. For more detailed information, we suggest you visit the following link: to.philips/6056utC8G. We hope we have answered your question.

Hi there. Thank you for reaching out to us. We would like to indicate that only the shavers that come with a Quick Clean Pod in the box are compatible with this system. You can quickly check compatibility by turning your shaver upside down and pressing the on/off button. If you see the cleaning reminder (3 dots) turn on, then your shaver is compatible with the Quick Clean Pod.

[@supercollider_x]

can you shave right after cleaning?

[@Philips]

Hi there. Thanks for your question. Yes, you can shave right after cleaning your Philips shaver. However, it is important to note that if the shaving heads are still wet, they may not glide across the skin as smoothly as they normally do, resulting in more friction. We generally recommend that the skin be dry for optimal shaving performance. If you prefer wet shaving with foam and water, that is also perfectly fine. Just ensure that you have enough foam and water for a smooth glide. Water-only shaving is not recommended as it may result in poor gliding. After shaving, we advise performing the cleaning ritual again. Additionally, it is important to air-dry your shaver before storing it in a closet or any other place where it cannot dry properly. This helps to prevent any dampness or moisture buildup. If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out via Social Media. We’re available on Facebook (@Philips) and Twitter (@PhilipsCare). You can also reach out to us via the contact page: to.philips/6057P0GIH.

Hi Ling. We no longer provide charger blocks with the Philips Shaver, as our consumers often already have a suitable charger block.

Please check out this link to learn more: to.philips/6052PHShg. If you do have a suitable charger block, you can use it. To clean Shaver heads with the one-touch open system, switch on the shaver and rinse the shaving unit under a warm tap. Switch off the shaver and press the release button to open the shaving unit. Rinse the hair chamber and head holder under a warm tap, carefully shake off excess water, and let the shaving head holder air-dry completely. Close the shaving unit. We hope this answers your query.
