Charging
The best environmental temperature for 
charging is between 60 °F to 95 °F / 15 °C 
and 35 °C.
• 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 4 hours.
• The green charging light (6) shows that the
shaver is being charged. When the 
batteries are fully charged, the charging 
light intermittently blinks on and off. This 
indicates that the battery maintains its full 
capacity.
• 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 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.
• The red low-charge light glows when the
shaver capacity has dropped below 20% 
provided the shaver is switched on. The 
remaining capacity will then be sufficient 
for 2 to 3 shaves.
• If the rechargeable batteries are
discharged, you may also shave 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
The hand-held unit shall be detached from 
the power supply cord before cleaning. The 
shaver shall not be used until it has dried.
Regular cleaning ensures better shaving 
performance. Rinsing the shaving head after 
each shave under 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 
abrasive substances. Rinse off all foam and 
let the shaver run for a few more seconds.
• Next, switch off the shaver and press the
release buttons. Remove the shaver foil 
and the cutter block. Then leave the 
disassembled shaving parts to dry.
Tips for the perfect shave
•
It can take up to 14-21 days for your 
beard to adjust to the new shaving 
system. 
•
Shave before washing your face or taking 
a shower, as skin tends to swell after 
washing.
•
The drier the skin, the closer the shaving 
results will be.
•
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.
