Shaving

Remove the epilation head and put on

the shaver head attachment (9) by

clicking it in.

Turn the switch clockwise to setting

«II».

Make sure the trim/shave selector (e)

is in the « » position.

For best results, always make sure

that both, the shaver foil (b) and the

trimmer (c) are in contact with the skin

(A). Keeping your skin stretched (B),

slowly move the appliance against the

direction of hair growth. The trimmer

first raises all long hairs and cuts them

off. Then the flexible foil follows to

smooth away any stubble.

When shaving or trimming in sensitive

areas, make sure that you always keep

your skin stretched to avoid injuries.

Contour trimming

For trimming precise line and contours,

lock the long hair trimmer by sliding the

trim/shave selector (e) to the position

« »

(C1).

Pre-cutting hair for epilation

If you choose to pre-cut your hair to

the ideal length for epilation, place the

trimmer cap (a) onto the shaver head.

Slide the trim/shave selector (e) to the

« »

position.

Hold the appliance with the trimmer cap

lying flat on the skin. Guide it with the

comb tips against the hair growth as

shown in illustration (C2).

Since hairs usually grow in various

directions, guide the appliance slightly

diagonally or in different directions in

order to achieve best results.

Cleaning the shaver head

After each use, unplug the appliance.
Brush cleaning

Press the release buttons (d) to

remove the shaver head (D1). Tap the

bottom of the shaver head gently on a

flat surface (not on the foil).

Brush out the cutter block and the

inside of the shaver head. However, do

not clean the shaver foil with the brush

as this may damage the foil.

Cleaning with water

Press the release buttons (d) to remove

the shaver head. Rinse the shaver head

and the cutter block separately under

running water (D2). Leave the cutter

block and the foil frame to dry separately

before reattaching them.

Keeping your shaver head

attachment in top shape

The shaving parts need to be lubricated

regularly every 3 months (E). If you

clean the shaver head under running

water, please lubricate it after every

cleaning.

Apply some light machine oil or vaseline

to the shaver foil and the metal parts

of the long hair trimmer. Then remove

the shaver head and also apply a tiny

amount of vaseline as shown in picture

section (E).
