to an outlet.
Using your shaver
(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).
• Underarm (see fig. 3)
Hold your arm up enough to stretch
your skin and shave back and forth.
• Legs (see fig. 4)
Be sure to move the shaver from
ankle to knee.
• Arms (see fig. 5)
Be sure to move the shaver from
outside to inside.

It is recommended to use the pop-
up trimmer for proper shave.
Pivot action selector
(see fig. 1-
H
)
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.
Next, close the outer foil frame and
dry it gently. After the shaving head
is dry, place the protective cap.
