Replacing batteries

Before replacing the battery, wipe the shaver free of moisture to prevent the inside from getting wet.

1. Turn the battery cover release dial and remove the battery cover. (Turn the dial to 90° in the coun- ter clockwise direction and re- move the battery cover.) (Fig.2A)
2. Insert the two AA (LR6) alkaline batteries as shown in the figure. After checking that their polarity matches that indicated behind the shaver main body. (Fig. 2B) (If the (+) and (- poles are not inserted properly, the motor will not oper ate.) Do not use new batteries with old ones.
3. Replace the battery cover with the dial mark at open. Check for proper sealing of the water-proof ing ring.
4. After replacing the battery cover to the main unit, turn the dial mark to close (Fig. 2C).

For wet shaving

• Put a thin layer of shaving foam on your face which works as a lubricant. Shaving foam is the most suitable among many other shaving aids (gel, soap, cream, etc). Do not put a thick layer of shaving foam as it may affect the shaver’s performance. If the shaving head is clogged with foam, simply rinse it under running water.

Cleaning your shaver (see Fig. 4)

• For cleanliness and convenience, we recommend that you clean your shaver with water and some liquid hand soap. Regular cleaning will
• keep your shaver in good condition while preventing odors or bacteria from developing, and maintain the cutting performance.
• With the outer foil in place, apply some hand soap onto the outer foil.
• Turn the shaver on and pour a small amount of water over the outer foil.
• After about 10-20 seconds, turn the shaver off.
• Remove the foil frame and rinse it under tap water.
• Wipe off any moisture from the shaver with a dry cloth and remove the protective cap to allow the outer foil to dry completely.

Brush cleaning

• Squeeze the foil frame release button and lift the foil frame upwards to remove it. Remove the inner blade by grasping it firmly at both ends and pulling it straight away from the shaver. Clean the outer foil, the shaver body with the long side of the brush. Clean the inner blade with the short side of the brush. Do not use the short brush to clean the outer foil.

Replacing shaving head components

• With daily use, the outer foil may need to be replaced every year and the inner blades every 2 years.
