Shaving
Skin adaptation period
Your first shaves may not bring you the result you expect and your skin may even become slightly irritated. This is normal. Your skin and beard need time to adapt to any new shaving system. To allow your skin to adapt to this new appliance, we advise you to shave regularly (at least 3 times a week) and exclusively with this appliance for a period of 3 weeks. You can use this product either wet or dry, or even in the shower.

For a wet shave, apply some water and shaving foam or gel to your skin and rinse the shaving heads under the tap with warm water before following the steps below.

1. Press the on/off button once to switch on the product (Fig. 12).

   Note: Do not press too hard, as this can cause skin  irritation.
   Note: If you are shaving with gel or foam, rinse the shaving unit regularly during your shave to ensure  that it continues to glide smoothly over your skin (Fig. 14).

3. Use the narrow sides of the shaving unit to shave in hard-to-reach areas such as along your jawline and under your nose (Fig. 15).

4. Switch off and clean the product after each use (see ‘Cleaning and maintenance’).
   Note: Make sure you rinse all foam or shaving gel off  the product.
