The Philips OneBlade is equipped with a blade-wear indicator. This means that with use you will see a green patch develop on your blade. Once this patch is completely green, it is a signal for you to get a new blade. Please keep in mind that this is only an indication and you should replace the blade when you are not satisfied with its performance any more.

One of the reasons for the blade turning green quicker than expected is improper cleaning. Cleaning tools such as brushes, towels etc. or chemical liquids can cause early visual wear.

Please follow the cleaning instructions below for OneBlade:

• After every use, blow off any hair accumulated on the blade.

• Turn your OneBlade on and rinse the blade and comb(s) with lukewarm water.

• If the attachments need to be cleaned more thoroughly, turn the OneBlade off, take off its attachments and wash them under a tap.

The Philips OneBlade is designed to be used on the face to trim and edge up your beard. With the body attachment, you can also use it on your body. However, if you use your OneBlade on other non-recommended areas like your head, it may cause the blade to wear out and turn green prematurely.

The lifetime of the blade of your Philips OneBlade also depends on the volume and density of your hair. For hard or long hair, the blade can wear out quicker than for soft and/or short hair.

If you are still not satisfied with the performance of your OneBlade then feel free to contact us for further support.

If the blade turns green but the consumer is still satisfied with the blade's performance, they can ignore the colour and keep on using the blade.
