Shaving
Warning: Before you use the appliance,
always check the blade for damage or
wear. If the blade is damaged or worn, do
not use the appliance, as injury may occur.
Replace a damaged blade before you use
the appliance (see chapter ‘Replacement’).
Shaving tips and tricks
-Make sure that the blade is in full contact with
the skin by placing it flat on the skin.
-For the best result, move the appliance against
the grain.
-Make long strokes while you press lightly.
-You can use the appliance dry or wet with gel
or foam, even in the shower.
-Shaving a clean beard and face gives the best
results.
1Switch on the appliance.
2Place the blade on the skin and move the
appliance up or against the grain in long strokes
while you press it lightly.
Note: Make sure you hold the surface of the
blade flat against your skin.
3Switch off and clean the appliance after every
use (see ‘Cleaning and maintenance’).
Edging
You can also use both edges of the blade to create
sharp lines and perfect edges. Hold the appliance
in such a way that the blade is perpendicular to
13

the skin and one of its edges touches the skin. This
allows more precise detailing of sideburns and the
area around the mouth and nose.

lines, use either edge of the blade.
2Switch on the appliance.
3Place the edge of the blade perpendicular onto
the skin.

Trimming with comb
Tips
-Always trim in the direction of the teeth of the
precision trimming comb making sure the flat
part of the comb is in full contact with the skin
for an even trimming result.
-Since hair grows in different directions, you
need to hold the appliance in different
positions as well. However, always make sure
that you move the appliance upwards against
the grain.
-Trimming is easier when the skin and hair are
dry.

Replacement
Replacing the blade
For optimal cutting and gliding performance of the
blade, we advise you to replace the blade every 4
months or when it no longer provides the shaving
or trimming results you expect. The advice of
replacing every 4 months is based on two full
shaves a week. Depending on your usage behavior
the exact lifetime of the blade could be longer or
shorter. Similar to what you would experience with
a manual blade, the blade becomes blunt over
time, which results in increased hair pulling and
reduced cutting performance.
