HOWTO USE
SHAVING
Make sure your shaver is properly charged
Begin by removing the protective head guard from your shaver.
Switch the shaver on.
(Fig. D
Slide the pop-up trimmer up and use to remove long hair first. Then slide down when
finished.
Stretch the skin with your free hand so the hairs stand upright.
Hold the shaving head so all foils touch your skin simultaneously. The independently
floating foils automatically adjust to the contours of your face. Only apply light pressure on
the shaving head whilst shaving and use short, circular strokes. (Fig. F)
After shaving turn the shaver off.
TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
Ensure your skin is dry. Always hold the shaver at right angles to the skin so that both foils
are touching the skin with equal pressure. Use moderate to slow stroking movements. The
use of short circular motions in stubborn areas may obtain a closer shave, especially along the
neck and chin line. DO NOT hold the shaver at an angle whereby only one foil is touching the
skin. This will distort the foil and may cause the cutters to damage the foil.
DO NOT press hard against the skin in order to avoid damage to the foil
.

DRY CLEANING

Thoroughly blow out the stubble from the foils and cutters.
Use the cleaning brush to sweep out the cutters. Do not use the cleaning brush on the
foils. Damage may occur to the holes of the foils.
(Fig. I)
Replace head assembly
CAUTION:
Do not clean the shaving foil with the brush.
REPLACING THE FOILS & CUTTERS
To ensure the continued highest quality performance from your shaver, we recommend that foils
and cutters are replaced regularly.
Signs that your foils and cutters need replacing:
Irritation: As foils get worn, you may experience skin irritation.
Pulling: As the cutters wear, your shave may not feel as close and you may feel your cutter
pulling your hair.
Wear through: You may notice that the cutters have worn through the foils.

CARE FORYOUR SHAVER
Care for your product to ensure a long lasting performance. We recommend you
clean your shaver after each use. The easiest and the most hygienic way to clean the
shaver is by rinsing the product head after use with warm water. Always keep the
protective cap on the shaving head and keep the trimmer in the “off” position when
the shaver is not in use.
Do not remove or replace head assembly while shaver is running as it may cause damage
to the unit’s foils and cutters.
To clean the external surfaces of the shaver, use a damp cloth.
Do not use strong detergents or other chemicals.
To dry, wipe the surface of the shaver with a dry towel.
WASHABLE CLEANING
Foils – do not use the brush to clean the foils. Instead, blow the shavings out or rinse the
foils und cold water or warm water.
Cutters & Trimmers – Use the cleaning brush to sweep any loose hairs from the cutter
and trimmer. Rinse them in cold or warm water. Do not use hot water.
(Fig. J)
Do not submerge the shaver in water.
After cleaning, replace the head assembly.

TROUBLESHOOTING

extended period of time, the shaver may not start when operated using the cord. If this
occurs, charge the shaver for approximately 15 sec. before shaving.
Your shaver should be mainly used in cordless mode and only recharged when battery
charge is low. Extended mains only use or continuous connection to the mains will result in
the reduction of the battery life.
