Shaving
Warning: Before you use the product,
always check the blade for damage or
wear. If the blade is damaged or worn, do
not use the product, as injury may occur.
Replace a damaged blade before use (see
'Replacement').
Shaving tips and tricks
- Make sure that the blade is in full contact
with the skin by placing it flat on the skin
(Fig. 5).
- For the best result, move the product
against the grain (Fig. 6).
- Make long strokes while pressing lightly.
- You can use the product dry or wet with
gel or foam. You can even use the
product in the shower.
- Shaving a clean beard and face gives the
best results.
Edging
- Use both edges of the blade to create
sharp lines and perfect edges.
- Hold the product in such a way that the
blade is perpendicular to the skin and
one of its edges touches the skin. This
allows more precise detailing of
sideburns and the area around the
mouth and nose.
1 To create sharp edges and lines, you can
use either edge of the blade (Fig. 7).
2 Switch on the product.
3 Place the edge of the blade
perpendicular onto the skin (Fig. 8).
4 Make straight strokes while applying
gentle pressure (Fig. 9).
5 Switch off and clean the product after
each use (see 'Cleaning').
Trimming with comb
The click-on stubble combs allow you to
trim hair to different lengths. This product
comes with 2 click-on stubble combs: 2mm
(5/64in.) and 1mm (3/64in.). Start with the
2mm comb to acquire practice with this
product. The indication on each comb
corresponds to the remaining hair length in
millimeters.
- Always make sure that the tips of the
click-on stubble comb point in the
direction in which you move the product.
- Make sure that the flat part of the comb
is always in full contact with the skin to
obtain an even trimming result (Fig. 10).
- Since all hairs do not grow in the same
direction, you may want to try different
trimming positions (i.e. upwards,
downwards, or across). Practice is best
for optimal results.
- Trimming is easier when the skin and hair
are dry.
1 Place the comb onto the blade, with the
teeth of the comb pointing upwards (Fig.
11).
Note: For best results, always trim in the
direction of the teeth of the comb.
2 Switch on the product.
3 Place the comb onto the skin and move
the product upwards slowly, against the
grain (Fig. 12).
4 Switch off and clean the product after
each use (see 'Cleaning').
5 To remove the comb, hold it on both
sides and pull it off the blade (Fig. 13).
Cleaning
Clean the product after every use.
Never use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning
agents or aggressive liquids such as
gasoline or acetone to clean the product.
Do not tap the product or blade against a
surface to remove hairs and water as this
may cause damage to the product and
blade (Fig. 14). If the blade is damaged,
replace immediately.
Never dry the blade with a towel or tissue,
as this may cause damage.
Cleaning the product
1 Switch the product off.
2 Pull the comb off the blade.
3 Blow off any hairs that have accumulated
on the blade and/or combs (Fig. 15).
4 Switch on the product for approx. 15
seconds while rinsing the blade with
lukewarm water (Fig. 16).
