Shaving

Before using, read the important safety instructions in front of the manual.

A B C

1. Switch the shaver on.

2. Hold the shaving head so both heads touch your face simultaneously.

3. Stretch the skin with your free hand so the hairs stand

upright. Use short, circular strokes.

4. When finished, switch shaver off.

NOTE: Only apply light pressure on the shaving head while shaving (pressing too

hard can damage the heads and may cause breakage.)

Shaving Tips

■ Ensure your skin is dry and free of oils.

■ Wait at least 15 minutes after getting up before shaving, to ensure your face is

free of puffiness that may be present from sleeping.

■ Always hold the shaver at a right angle to the skin so that both heads are touching the skin with equal pressure.

■ Use moderate to slow, circular stroking movement.

■ The use of short, circular motions in stubborn areas may obtain a closer shave,

especially along the neck and chin line.

NOTE: **When cleaning your shaver, make sure the shaver is turned off and disconnected from the power cord.**

■ This shaver is NOT washable or water resistant. Do not clean or use under running water.
