INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

It is recommended that you use your new shaver daily for up to two weeks to allow time for your beard and skin to become accustomed to the new shaving system.

• Make sure your shaver is properly charged.
• Switch the shaver on by pressing the on/off switch.

SHAVING

• Stretch the skin with your free hand so the hairs stand upright.
• Hold the shaving head so that the foils touch your face.
• Use short linear strokes.

TRIMMING

• Slide up the trimmer release button to activate the trimmer.
• Hold the trimmer at a right angle to your skin.
• To retract the trimmer, push the top rear of the trimmer down until it locks under the trimmer release button.

STUBBLE LOOK
Fit the stubble head guard to your shaver for a 3-day stubble look.

HEAD LOCK
Normally, the head pivots freely but its movement can be restricted by sliding the head lock button to the locked position.

TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS

• Always hold the shaver at right angles to the skin so that all foils are touching the skin with equal pressure.

• Use moderate to slow stroking movements. The use of short linear motions in
  stubborn areas may obtain a closer shave, especially along the neck and chin line.

• DO NOT press hard against the skin in order to avoid irritation and damage to the foil heads.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• To ensure long lasting performance clean after each use.
• Ensure the appliance is switched off and unplugged from the mains.
• The easiest and most hygienic way to clean the appliance is by rinsing the appliance head after use with warm water.

DRY CLEANING

• Gently tap out the excess hair shavings and use a cleaning brush to clean out the hair pocket if necessary.

• Lubricate the teeth of the trimmer every six weeks with a drop of sewing machine oil.

• To ensure continued high quality performance from your shaver, we recommend the foils and cutters are replaced regularly.
