period of 3-4 weeks to allow your skin to adapt to the
new shaver.

reminder is displayed to remind you to clean the
appliance (see 'How do I clean my appliance and the
attachments?').

- Clean the appliance and attachments after each use
to prevent clogging and damage (see 'How do I clean
my appliance and the attachments?').

when the appliance does not shave as well as it used
to (see 'Thorough cleaning').

You can use the trimmer to groom your sideburns and
moustache.

Push the trimmer release slide downwards to open

1

the trimmer.
Switch on the appliance.

Hold the trimmer perpendicular to the skin and move

3

the appliance downwards while you exert gentle
pressure.

Switch off the appliance and clean the trimmer after

5

each use to prevent clogging and damage (see 'How
do I clean my appliance and the attachments?').
