Inserting the batteries

  • This appliance operates on two 1.5 V batteries. For best performance, use alkaline manganese batteries (type LR 6, AM3, AA). These batteries provide a shaving capacity of up to 90 minutes approximately.
  • Open the battery compartment and insert the batteries with the poles in the direction marked. Before closing the battery compartment, make sure the cover is dry and clean.

Shaving

For radiant skin, the Silk&Soft system captures even problem hairs, the integrated SoftStrip stretches the skin to ensure a closer reach and the floating shaver foil and the floating longhair trimmer hug the skin, all to ensure a perfectly close shave. For a gentle shave, the EasyGlide cushion ensures smoother gliding and reduces skin irritation.

  • Press and slide up the on/off switch to turn the shaver on. Make sure that the TrimLock (2) is in the « » position.
  • Move the appliance slowly against the direction of hair growth. Adjusting to the body contours, the long hair trimmer first raises all long hairs and cuts them off. Then the shaver foil follows to smooth away any stubble.
  • Always ensure that both, the shaver foil and the long hair trimmer are in contact with the skin.

Shaving and styling the underarm and bikini area
In these sensitive areas, make sure that you always shave on stretched skin in order to avoid injuries (B). Please take special care if the skin surface is uneven or provided with skin tags. Make sure not to touch them with the long hair trimmer. Shaving the underarm and bikini area: Always stretch your skin when shaving.

Bikini area styling:

  • For trimming precise lines and contours, lock the long hair trimmer by sliding the TrimLock to the position « » (C1).
  • To trim hair to a uniform length, lock the long hair trimmer and place the bikini zone trim attachment (6) onto the shaver head (C2). For optimum results, move the appliance slowly against the direction of hair growth.

When you are finished
After shaving, you may want to smooth on a little body cream or lotion. However, avoid using irritating substances like deodorants with alcohol right away.
