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.
• When charging for the first time, leave the
shaver to charge continuously for 4 hours.
• The green charging light (6) shows that
the shaver is being charged. When the
batteries are fully charged, the charging
light intermittently blinks on and off. This
indicates that the battery maintains its full
capacity.
• Once the shaver is completely charged,
discharge the shaver through normal use.
Then recharge to full capacity. Subsequent
charges will take about 1 hour.
• A full charge provides up to 40 minutes of
cordless shaving time depending on your
beard growth. However, the maximum
battery capacity will only be reached after
several charging/discharging cycles.
• The red low-charge light glows when the
shaver capacity has dropped below 20%
4
provided the shaver is switched on. The
remaining capacity will then be sufficient
for 2 to 3 shaves.
• If the rechargeable batteries are discharg-
ed, 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.
Warning: Detach the hand-held part
from the power supply before cleaning it in
water.
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.
