that both, the shaver foil (b) and the
trimmer (c) are in contact with the skin
(A). Keeping your skin stretched (B),
slowly move the appliance against the
direction of hair growth. The trimmer
first raises all long hairs and cuts them
off. Then the flexible foil follows to
smooth away any stubble.
ï When shaving or trimming in sensitive
areas, make sure that you always keep
your skin stretched to avoid injuries.
Contour trimming
For trimming precise line and contours,
lock the long hair trimmer by sliding the
trim/shave selector (e) to the position
« » (C1).
Pre-cutting hair for epilation
If you choose to pre-cut your hair to
the ideal length for epilation, place the
trimmer cap (a) onto the shaver head.
Slide the trim/shave selector to the « »
position.
Hold the appliance with the trimmer cap
lying flat on the skin. Guide it with the
comb tips against the hair growth as
shown in illustration C2.
As hair does not always grow in the same
direction, guide the appliance slightly
diagonally or in different directions in
order to achieve best results.
Cleaning the shaver head
After each use, unplug the appliance.
Brush cleaning
ï Press the release buttons (d) to remove
the shaver head (D1). Tap the bottom
of the shaver head gently on a flat
surface (not on the foil).
ï Brush out the cutter block and the
inside of the shaver head. However, do
not clean the shaver foil with the brush
as this may damage the foil.
Cleaning with water
Press the release buttons (d) to remove
the shaver head. Rinse the shaver head
and the cutter block separately under
running water (D2). Leave the cutter

ï The shaving parts need to be lubri-
cated regularly every 3 months (E).
If you clean the shaver head under
running water, please lubricate it after
every cleaning.
ï Apply some light machine oil or vase-
line to the shaver foil and the metal
parts of the long hair trimmer. Then
remove the shaver head and also apply
a tiny amount of vaseline as shown in
picture section (E).
ï The shaver foil and the cutter block
are precision parts that wear out with
time. To maintain optimal shaving

reduced shaving performance even
after cleaning the shaver head.
ï Do not shave with a damaged foil or
cord.
