the appliance.

charger.

Make sure the appliance is switched off when

you start to charge it.

When the appliance is fully charged, the

charging light on the appliance and on the

adapter goes out.
Optimising the lifetime of the

by letting the motor run until it stops. Then fully

recharge the battery.

Attaching/detaching attachments

The shaving attachment and trimming

attachment can be attached and detached in the

same way.

1

To attach the attachment, put it on the

handle in such a way that the open dot on

the handle is aligned with the open dot on

the attachment (1). Then turn the attachment

clockwise until the open dot is aligned with

the solid dot on the handle (2) (Fig. 6).

2

To detach the attachment, turn it

anticlockwise until the open dot on the

handle is aligned with the open dot on the

attachment (1). Then lift the attachment off

the handle (2) (Fig. 7).
Using the appliance

You can use the appliance wet or dry to shave

or trim hair on all parts of the body below the

neckline. Do not use it to shave facial or scalp hair.
Tip: Take your time when you shave sensitive areas

for the first time. You have to acquire practice with

the appliance. Your skin also needs some time to get

accustomed to the appliance.

1

Put the trimming attachment on the handle

(see section ‘Attaching/detaching attachments’

in chapter ‘Preparing for use’).

2

Put one of the two trimming combs on the

trimming attachment (Fig. 8).

Use the XL comb to trim hairs on extra-large

areas, such as your chest, abdomen, back and

legs.

Use the XS comb to trim hairs on extra-

sensitive areas, such as your pubic area,

underarms and around the nipples.

3

Press the setting selector upwards or

downwards to set the desired setting (Fig. 9).

The two arrowheads on the trimming

attachment show which setting you have

set (Fig. 10).

The tables show how long the hair will be after

trimming at the different settings.

When you trim for the first time, start at the

highest setting (5) to familiarise yourself with the

appliance.

slowly (Fig. 11).
Trimming tips

To trim in the most effective way, move the

appliance against the direction of hair growth.

Always make sure that the tips of the comb

point in the direction in which you move the

appliance.

Make sure that the flat part of the comb is

always fully in contact with the skin to obtain

an even result.

Since all hair does not grow in the same

direction, you need to move the appliance in

different directions (upward or across).

Trimming is easier when the skin and hair are

dry.
Shaving

Before you use the shaving attachment, always

check it for damage or wear. Do not use the

shaving attachment if the shaving foil unit or the

cutter is damaged, as injury may occur. If the

shaving foil unit is damaged, replace it.

1

Put the shaving attachment on the handle (see

section ‘Attaching/detaching attachments’ in

chapter ‘Preparing for use’).

2

Press the on/off button once to switch on the

appliance.

3

Place the shaving foil on the skin.

4

Move the appliance against the direction of

hair growth while you press it lightly onto the

skin (Fig. 12).
Shaving tips

Stretch the skin when you move the shaving

foil across it.

Make sure that the shaving foil is always fully in

contact with the skin.

If the hairs are longer than 10mm, you can trim

them first to make shaving easier.
