Description
1 Shaver foil
2 Cutter block
3 Release button
4 On/off switch («start/stop»)
5 Long hair trimmer
6 Charging light (green)
7 Low-charge light (red)
8 Special cord set
Charging
The best environmental temperature for
charging is between 60 °F to 95 °F / 15 °C
and 35 °C.
• Connect the shaver to an electrical outlet
with the motor switched off.
• When charging for the first time, leave the
shaver to charge continuously for 4 hours.
• The green charging light (6) shows that the
shaver is being charged. When the
batteries are fully charged, the charging
light intermittently blinks on and off. This
indicates that the battery maintains its full
capacity.
• Once the shaver is completely charged,
discharge the shaver through normal use.
Then recharge to full capacity. Subsequent
charges will take about 1 hour.
• A full charge provides up to 40 minutes of
cordless shaving time depending on your
beard growth. However, the maximum
battery capacity will only be reached after
several charging/discharging cycles.
• The red low-charge light glows when the
shaver capacity has dropped below 20%
provided the shaver is switched on. The
remaining capacity will then be sufficient
for 2 to 3 shaves.
• If the rechargeable batteries are
discharged, you may also shave by
connecting the shaver to an electrical outlet
via the special cord set.
Shaving
Press the on/off switch (4) to turn the shaver
on.
Trimmer:
When the long hair trimmer (5) is activated, it
allows the controlled trimming of moustache
or sideburns.
Tips for the perfect shave
• It can take up to 14-21 days for your
beard to adjust to the new shaving
system.
• Shave before washing your face or taking
a shower, as skin tends to swell after
washing.
• The drier the skin, the closer the shaving
results will be.
• Hold the shaver at right angles (90°) to the
skin. Stretch the skin and shave against
the direction of beard growth.
• To maintain 100% shaving performance,
replace your foil and cutter block every
18 months or when worn.
Cleaning
The hand-held unit shall be detached from
the power supply cord before cleaning. The
shaver shall not be used until it has dried.
Regular cleaning ensures better shaving
performance. Rinsing the shaving head after
each shave under running water is an easy
and fast way to keep it clean:
• Switch the shaver on (cordless) and rinse
the shaving head under hot running water.
A natural based soap may also be used
provided it contains no particles or
abrasive substances. Rinse off all foam and
let the shaver run for a few more seconds.
• Next, switch off the shaver and press the
release buttons. Remove the shaver foil
and the cutter block. Then leave the
disassembled shaving parts to dry.
