3 Shaving
3.1 Switch lock
The shaver is delivered with the switch lock
activated (position «lock»). Push the switch lock
up before you shave for the first time. To avoid
accidentally switching the shaver on, e. g. when
travelling, push the switch lock to position «lock».
3.2 Switch positions
off
on Shaving with the pivoting head.
The pivoting cutting system auto-
matically adjusts to every contour
of your face.
head lock Shaving with the pivoting head locked
(to permit shaving in difficult areas, e.g.
under the nose)
trimmer The long hair trimmer is activated
(for trimming sideburns, moustache and
beard).
3.3 Shaving with the cord
If the cell unit is discharged, you may also
shave with the shaver connected to the mains
(100–240 V ~). (If the shaver should not run
immediately, charge it with the switch position «off»
for approx. 1 minute.)
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
your foil and cutter block at least every 18 months
or when worn.
