4. Insert New Blades:
Place the new replacement foils into the shaver head unit. Ensure they sit flush. Then, place the new blades into each foil. Pay attention to the orientation; the small "dog ear" tabs on the blades should align with the corresponding slots in the shaver head unit to ensure proper fit and function.

Maintenance
Regular cleaning and timely replacement of shaver heads are crucial for maintaining optimal performance and hygiene.
Daily Cleaning:
After each shave, open the shaver head unit and rinse the blades and foils under warm running water. You can also use a small brush to remove any trapped hair. Allow the heads to air dry completely before closing the unit.

Deep Cleaning (Recommended every 6 months):
