Charging
The best environmental temperature for
charging is between 15°C and 35°C.
• Using the special cord set, connect the
shaver/charging stand to an electrical outlet
with the motor switched off.
• 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.
• If the rechargeable batteries are dis-
charged, you may also shave by connecting
the shaver to an electrical outlet via the
special cord set.
Charging lights
5874 and 5875 models: The green charging
light blinks when the shaver is being charged.
When the battery is fully charged, the charging
light lights permanently.
5877 model: The 3 segments of the green
charging light indicate the charging level by
thirds. When fully charged, all 3 segments of the
charging light shine permanently.
Low-charge light
(5877/5875 models only)
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.
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.
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 the shaver foil and cutter block,
when the replacement light (8) comes on
(after about 18 months), or when the
shaving parts are worn.
