Charging
The best environmental temperature for char-
ging is between 15°C and 35°C.
• Using the special cord set, connect the
shaver to an electrical outlet with the motor
switched off.
• When charging for the first time, leave the
shaver to charge continuously for at least
8 hours (Model 4745), 16 hours (Model 4740).
• As soon as you start charging the shaver,
the charging light (6) comes on.
• Once the shaver is completely charged,
discharge the shaver through normal use.
Then recharge to full capacity.
• A full charge will give up to 30 minutes of
cordless shaving time depending on your
beard growth. However, the maximum
battery capacity will only be reached after
several charging/discharging cycles.
• If the rechargeable batteries are dis-
charged, you can shave without charging
by connecting the shaver to an electrical
outlet via the special cord set.
Shaving
Press the on/off switch (4) to turn the shaver
on.
Trimmer: When the long hair trimmer (5) is
activated, it allows the controlled trimming of
moustache or sideburns.
Cleaning
Always unplug the appliance before cleaning.
Regular cleaning ensures better shaving
performance. Rinsing the shaving head after
each shave under hot 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 abra-
sive substances. Rinse off all foam and let
the shaver run for a few more seconds.
• Next switch the shaver off and press the
release buttons. Lift the shaver foil off and
pull the cutter block out. Then leave the
disassembled shaving parts to dry.
Alternatively, you may clean the shaver using
the brush provided:
• Switch the shaver off. Press the release
buttons and lift shaver foil off.
• Using the brush, clean the cutter block and
the inner area of the shaver head. However,
do not clean the shaver foil with the brush
as this may damage the foil.
Tips for the perfect shave
• We recommend that you shave before
washing, as the skin tends to be slightly
swollen after washing.
• 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 your foil and cutter block every
18 months or when worn.
