6.3 Shaving

DANGER! Risk of electric
shock!
The hand-held device and the plug-
in power unit are not waterproof
and are therefore not allowed to be
used in a shower/bath.
WARNING!
• Do not use the device on open wounds,
cuts, sunburn or blisters.
• Do not place excessive pressure on the
shaving foils|1. They are thin and can
be damaged easily.
NOTES:
• The device is suitable for both dry and
wet shaving (Wet & Dry).
• Initial use may cause temporary irrita-
tion or redness of the skin, as the skin
has to adjust to shaving. This is normal
and usually lasts between 2 and
4|weeks.
Dry shaving (Rechargeable bat-
tery and mains operation)
• Hold the device at a right angle to the
skin surface and gently guide it over
your face.
• Shave against the direction of your
beard growth.
• Stretch your skin in complicated areas,
such as the chin, to achieve better re-
sults.
• Switch off the device after shaving,
clean the parts carefully (chapter
"Cleaning and maintenance of the de-
vice" on page 51) and place the protec-
tive lid|11 onto the shaving head|4 to
protect the shaving foils|1 and the long
hair trimmer|12.

Wet shaving (only for battery
operation)
DANGER! Risk of electric
shock!
The hand-held device and the plug-
in power unit are not waterproof.
Wet shaving is only allowed when
using battery power.
WARNING! Risk of material dam-
age! For wet shaving use shaving foam or
lather only; never use shaving gel or shaving
cream. This could adhere to the cutter
blocks.
• Before shaving, smooth a thin layer of
shaving foam on your face.
• Shave your face as described in the
chapter "Dry shaving (Rechargeable
battery and mains operation)".
• If shaving foam should clog the shaving
head|4, clean the shaving head under
running water (chapter "Cleaning and
maintenance of the device" on page 51).
Cutting long hair
Use the long hair trimmer|12 on the back of
the shaver to shorten your beard and side-
burns.
1. Take off the protective lid|11.
2. Push the long hair trimmer|12 up.
3. Switch on the shaver with the on/off
switch|6.
4. After use, switch the device off, slide
the long hair trimmer|12 back to its
original position and clean the device
(chapter "Cleaning and maintenance
of the device" on page 51).
Designer stubble
NOTE: depending on beard growth and
shaving, the appearance of a designer stub-
ble can vary greatly.
