ATTENTION! The shaver is not waterproof. For wet shaves, the
device must be used in cordless mode. Never use the shaver in
the shower or in the bathtub.

battery symbol (

capacity. You should charge the shaver if the LED battery symbol
(

• Hold the shaver at a right angle to the surface of the skin
and move it carefully and in circular motion over your face
(see fig.

• At parts of the face that are harder to shave, such as the chin,
stretch the skin for a better result (see fig.

).
• Shave against the direction of beard growth.
• After shaving, switch off the shaver and clean the cutting elements
carefully (
