What is ProShield Lubrication?Unlike other razors, ProShield is our first razor with lubrication before and after the blades to shield skin from irritation while you shave.
What is FlexBall Technology? Handles featuring FlexBall Technology allow the blades to respond to the contours of your face to get virtually every hair.
What’s the microchip and how does it work?A battery-powered razor delivers an optimal shave when the voltage and frequency remain consistent, shave after shave. Over the lifetime of the battery, the voltage can weaken, reducing frequency and therefore performance. The microchip maintains constant voltage and frequency over the lifetime of the battery, delivering consistent product performance every time you shave
How does the low-battery indicator light work?The microchip inside Gillette Fusion5 ProShield Power senses when the battery is approaching a low level, and the low-battery indicator light begins to flash, signaling that it's time to change the AAA battery.
What’s the automatic shutoff feature?The automatic shutoff feature turns the razor off after roughly 8 minutes of continuous operation. This feature protects the battery if the razor is accidentally activated, which comes in handy when traveling.
How does movement of the razor give men a better shave?Micropulses help the Power razor’s blades move effortlessly.
For best results, should the power be turned on or off when using the Precision Trimmer?The Precision Trimmer can be used with the power turned on or off. Using the Precision Trimmer with or without power is an individual choice.
What type of battery does Gillette Fusion5 ProShield Power use?Gillette Fusion5 ProShield Power uses a AAA battery.
What makes Fusion5 ProShield better than Fusion5? With lubrication before and after the blades, ProShield Lubrication shields skin while you shave. Its handle features FlexBall Technology that responds to contours and gets virtually every hair.
How should I store my Proshield Razor?For best results, do not store face down when wet. It is best to store the razor in its special holder after the shave or let it dry in an upright position.
What is the Precision Trimmer?The ProShield Precision Trimmer, on the back of the blades, features an enhanced blade and anti-clogging rinse slots—perfect for hard-to-reach areas and
styling facial hair.
Will ProShield blade refills fit any other Gillette handles?Yes, all Fusion5 blades fit
all Fusion5 and Fusion5 Power razors.
Should I still use a shave gel product with the ProShield razor? Yes. Using a non-drying shave gel, like
Fusion ProGlide 2-in-1 Sensitive Shave Gel, softens hair and helps defend against nicks and cuts.
