Cleaning, Trimming, Tips for the perfect shave

Trimming

Push out the long hair trimmer (a). It allows controlled trimming of moustache and sideburns.

Frequent use of the long hair trimmer may reduce the battery capacity.

Tips for the perfect shave

•It can take 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 shave 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 at least 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 (b). 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, remove the shaver foil and the cutter block. Then leave the disassembled shaving parts to dry.

Alternatively, you may clean the shaver using the brush provided (c):

•Switch off the shaver. Remove the shaver foil.

•Using the brush, clean the cutter block and the inner area of the shaver head. However, do not clean the shaver foil with the brush as this may damage the foil.
