• Charge the shaver before you use it for the first time and when the display indicates that the battery is almost empty.
• When you charge the appliance for the first time or after a long period of non-use, let it charge until the charging light lights up continuously.
• Charging takes approx. : 8 hours (S1133, S1231, S1232 only) or 1 hour (S1334 only). A fully charged shaver has a shaving time of up to 40 minutes.

S1334 only

Note: Before first usage charge the appliance for 3 hours without interruptions and until the battery  charging indication shows that the battery is full. This is needed to make maximum use of the battery capacity. All future charges will take 1 hour.

When the battery is fully charged, the charging light lights up white continuously.
Note: After approx. 30 minutes, the charging light goes out to save energy.

When the battery is almost empty (when there are only 5 or fewer shaving minutes left), the charging light flashes orange.
