PURPOSE OF USE

The electric shaver is intended for dry and wet shaving of beards and trimming of sideburns, moustaches or facial hair. Dry shaving is recommended for best results. The electric shaver is not intended for cutting synthetic hair or animal fur. The shaver is designed for household use and is not intended for commercial or other professional use.
CHARGING
Before using adaptor, ensure that the voltage of electricity supply is the same as that indicated on adaptor. Your shaver contains re-chargeable batteries and may be used cordless for approximately 70 minutes when the batteries are fully charged.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The batteries must be charged for a minimum of 2 hours for the first charge cycle. This will ensure the maximum life for the batteries.

Connect the cable of the plug-in mains adaptor to adaptor cord plug of the shaver.
Insert the plug-in mains adaptor (rated voltage range 100 -240V) into a mains outlet socket that meets the requirements of the device.
The LCD display on the shaver will light whilst charging.
Leave the shaver until fully charged, and LCD display would show 100% (approximately 90 mins if the batteries were fully discharged).
After charging, disconnect the adaptor from the mains to conserve power and store it in a safe place.

DIRECT DRIVE TECHNOLOGY

If the battery of the electric shaver is discharged (flat) or if it is discharged during cordless operation, the shaver can be plugged into mains power and can continue to be used. This is enabled by DIRECT DRIVE technology used on the electric shaver. Therefore, no need to wait for a minimum charge.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXTENDING THE LIFETIME OF THE BATTERY

In order for the built-in battery to serve you as long as possible, charge, use and store the electric shaver in a dry environment at an ambient temperature of 15-35°C. Lower or higher temperatures have a negative impact on the lifespan of the battery.
Do not wait for the battery to become completely flat. It is better to charge the battery before it is completely flat.
When the electric shaver is not used for an extended period of time, charge it at least once every 6 months.

OPERATION / SHAVING

Switch the shaver on by pressing the ON/OFF button. The LCD display would show the battery power level.
Press the shaver gently onto the skin at an angle of 90 degrees and guide it over the face against the direction of hair growth. Do not push too hard.
While shaving, use your free hand to stretch the skin in hard-to-reach places, such as on the chin. In this way you will achieve better shaving results.
To use the trimmer on the rear of the appliance, slide it up. After use, move it back.
Switch the shaver off by pressing the ON/OFF button for 2 seconds.

Note: It may take your skin and facial hair two to three weeks to become accustomed to the new way of shaving. During this period, we recommend using the electric shaver every day.

LOW BATTERY POWER INDICATION

When the battery will have a low charge level (5%), battery level indicator will start flashing on the display.

SHAVING HEAD CLEANING INDICATOR

The shaver is equipped with a timer that adds up the operating time of the shaver (shaving time). When it reaches 10 minutes, the water tap symbol will light up to remind that it is necessary to clean the shaving head. If this happens, clean the shaver as soon as possible according to chapter CLEANING THE SHAVING HEAD. The next time you turn on the shaver, the timer will restart.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

For hygiene reasons, clean the electric shaver after every use. Regular cleaning is also important to ensure the correct operation of the electric shaver and to extend the lifespan of the cutters. Turn off the electric shaver before cleaning it. Never clean the electric shaver when it is charging and connected to the power supply. For cleaning, do not use brushes with hard bristles, cleaning products with an abrasive effect, solvents, etc. Otherwise, the cleaned surface may be damaged.

CLEANING THE ELECTRIC SHAVER AND ADAPTER

The electric shaver unit can be cleaned using a clean dry cloth. In the event that it is very dirty, you can use a lightly dampened cloth. Then thoroughly wipe the cleaned surface dry. To clean the power cable and adapter, use a clean, dry cloth.
