setting (Fig. 6).

Shaving
Do not use the shaver head to shave or trim
hair on the face or head.
- When shaving sensitive areas for the first
time, you may feel some discomfort,
irritation or reddening of the skin. This is
normal as your skin needs time to adjust to
shaving.
- If your hair is longer than 13/32 in. (10
mm), trim hair to a length of 1/8 in. (3 mm)
first for optimum shaving results.
- For dry use, be certain that your skin is
clean and dry before using the shaver head.
Inspect the shaving foil of the shaver head
before each use. Replace the shaving foil head
when the foil is damaged (Fig. 9).
1 Press the shaver head on/off button to
switch on the product (Fig. 10).
2 Stretch your skin taut with your free hand
(Fig. 11). Gently press the shaver head to
skin and move it slowly and smoothly
against the direction of hair growth (Fig.
12).
- Do not press too hard. Too much pressure
can distort the foil and cause skin irritation.
- Make sure the shaver head is always in full
contact with your skin.
- The shaver is bi-directional, which means
that you can shave by moving the product
up and down. Shave against the direction
of hair growth for optimal performance.
3 Switch off and clean the product after each
use.
