Charging the shaver
• Using the special cord set, charge the shaver
directly off the mains for at least 8 hours
(shaver and special cord set might get warm).
• With normal use the shaver will be charged
automatically after every cleaning in the
Clean&Charge (see section B).
• The green charging light indicates that the
shaver is being charged.
• A full charge will give up to 40 minutes of
cordless shaving time depending on your
beard growth. However, the maximum
battery capacity will only be reached after
several charging/discharging cycles.
• Best environmental temperature range for
charging is 15 °C to 35 °C.
• When fully discharged, you may also shave
with the shaver connected to the mains 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 indicator
Your shaver should be cleaned daily in the
Clean&Charge, and certainly when the yellow
cleaning light shines constantly after shaving.
If this is not done, the yellow light will go off
after some time. The shaver‘s electronics will
then assume it has been cleaned manually
and a new calculation of the the time when the
next cleaning is required will be started.
During the cleaning process in the
Clean&Charge the yellow light will flash and
go off after approx. 4 hours when cleaning is
finished.
Automatic cleaning
Once the shaver is put into in the
Clean&Charge, it is cleaned automatically (see
section B). Manual cleaning is recommended
only when the Clean&Charge is not available,
e.g. when travelling.
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.
