Using your shaver

Caution – The system outer foil is very thin and can be damaged if handled improperly. Before each use, always check the foll for dam- age. To avoid personal injury, do not use if the foil or other parts of the shaving head is damaged.

(see fig. 2 through 6)

Remove the protective cap and ap- ply shaving lather generously. For the best results, move the shaver in back and forth directions, while keeping the shaver head at a right angle (90°) to your skin so that the two trimmers and outer foil work together at the same time. Slide the pop-up trimmer switch up when using the pop-up trimmer to cut long hairs (see fig. 2).

Pivot action selector

Use the pivot action selector to choose the shaving mode:

full range, mid range or lock based on your shaving preference.

Cleaning

(see fig. 7)

For cleanliness and convenience, we recommend that you clean your shaver with water and a liquid hand soap. Regular cleaning will keep your shaver in good condition while pre- venting odors or bacteria from devel- oping, and maintain the cutting per- formance.

With the outer foils in place, apply some hand soap onto the outer foils. Turn the shaver on and turn off after few seconds.

Next, press the outer foil frame re- lease buttons to remove the outer foil frame and rinse the inner blade/outer foils under running water or in a ba- sin.

DO NOT USE BOILING WATER. After the inner blade/outer foils and the shaving head are dry, close the outer foil frame and place the protec- tive cap.

Replacing shaving head Components

It is recommended that you replace the outer foil at least once every year and the inner blade at least once every two years to maintain your shaver’s cutting performance.

Replacing the outer foil

Press the outer foil frame release but- tons to remove the outer foil frame (see fig. 8).

Then, squeeze the front and the back side of the foil frame and lift up one of the two knobs on the outer foil (see fig. 9).

Inserting the new outer foil

Slip the foil into the frame and guide the plastic edges onto the hooks into the frame until it clicks into the shaver.

Replacing the inner blade (see fig. 10)

Squeeze the outer foil release but- tons and lift the outer foil frame up- ward to remove it. Remove the inner blade by grasping it firmly at both ends and pulling straight away from the shaver. To insert the new inner blade, hold the blade at both ends and press downward until it snaps into the shaver.
