Charging
The best environmental temperature for charging is between 15 °C and 35 °C.
•Connect the shaver to an electrical outlet with the motor switched off and charge it for at least 8 hours (4845 model), 16 hours (4840 model).
•The green charging light (6) shows that the shaver is being charged.
•Once the shaver is completely charged, discharge the shaver through normal use. Then recharge to full capacity.
•A full charge provides up to 30 minutes of cordless shaving time depending on your beard growth. However, the maximum battery capacity will only be reached after several charging/discharging cycles.
•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
•We recommend that you shave before washing, as the skin tends to be slightly swollen after washing.
•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 the shaver foil and cutter block at least every 18 months or when worn.
Cleaning
This appliance is suitable for cleaning under an open water tap.

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 abra- sive 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 disas- sembled shaving parts to dry.
•If you regularly clean the shaver under water, then once a week apply a drop of light machine oil onto the long hair trimmer and shaver foil.
