Model 8970: The green single charging light (7) shows that the shaver is being charged. When fully charged, the charging light flashes or goes off. If later on, the charging light comes on again, this indicates that the shaver is being recharged to maintain its full capacity.

The red low charge light (8) flashes when the battery capacity has dropped below 20%, provided the shaver is switched on. The remaining capacity will then be sufficient for 2 to 3 shaves.

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, when the replacement light

(9) comes on (after about 18 months), or when worn.
