Charging
The best environmental temperature for
charging is between 60 °F to 95 °F/15 °C and
35 °C.
• Using the special cord set, connect the
shaver/charging stand to an electrical outlet
with the motor switched off.
• The green charging light blinks when the
shaver is being charged. When the battery is
fully charged, the charging light lights
permanently.
• When charging for the first time, leave the
shaver to charge continuously for 4 hours.
• Once the shaver is completely charged,
discharge the shaver through normal use.
Then recharge to full capacity. Subsequent
charges will take about 1 hour.
• A full charge provides up to 50 minutes of
cordless shaving time depending on your
beard growth.
• Maximum battery capacity will only be
reached after several charging/discharging
cycles.
• The red low-charge light flashes when the
battery capacity has dropped below 20%,
provided the shaver is switched on. The re-
maining capacity will then be sufficient for 2
to 3 shaves.
• If the rechargeable batteries are discharged,
you may also shave by connecting the
shaver to an electrical outlet via the special
cord set.
Shaving
Turn on the shaver («start»):
The pivoting cutting system automatically
adjusts to every contour of your face.
Trimmer:
When the long hair trimmer is activated, it allows
the controlled trimming of moustache or
sideburns.
Cleaning
The hand-held unit should be detached from
the power supply cord before cleaning. The
shaver should not be used until it has dried.
Regular cleaning ensures better shaving
performance. Rinsing the shaving head after
each shave under running water is an easy and
fast way to keep it clean:
• Switch the shaver on (cordless) and rinse
the shaving head under hot running water.
A natural based soap may also be used
provided it contains no particles or abrasive
substances. Rinse off all foam and let the
shaver run for a few more seconds.
• Next, switch off the shaver, remove the
shaver foil and the cutter block. Then leave
the disassembled shaving parts to dry.
Tips for the perfect shave
• It can take up to 14-21 days for your beard
to adjust to the new shaving system.
• Shave before washing your face or taking
a shower, as skin tends to swell after
washing.
• The drier the skin, the closer the shaving
results will be.
• 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 the shaver foil and cutter block,
when the replacement light (8) comes on
(after about 18 months), or when the
shaving parts are worn.
