Using the appliance
Shaving
If you shave frequently (at least every 3 days), put
the trimmer in the lower position for optimal skin
comfort. In this case, only the double shaving foil
touches the skin (Fig. 4).
If you shave less frequently, make sure that the
trimmer is in the upper position.
1
Switch on the appliance (Fig. 5).
2
Place the trimmer and the double shaving foil gently
on the skin. Move the appliance slowly over the
skin against the direction of hair growth while you
press it lightly (Fig. 6).
Make sure that the trimmer and both shaving foils are
always completely in contact with the skin.

To trim the bikini zone or the underarms, place
the comb attachment on the shaving head with
the recess of the attachment on the front of the
appliance (Fig. 7).
