sensitive areas, such as your pubic area,
underarms and around the nipples.

Trimming tips
-
To trim in the most effective way, move the
appliance against the direction of hair growth.
-
Always make sure that the tips of the comb
point in the direction in which you move the
appliance.
-
Make sure that the flat part of the comb is
always fully in contact with the skin to obtain
an even result.
-
Since all hair does not grow in the same
direction, you need to move the appliance in
different directions (upward or across).
-
Trimming is easier when the skin and hair are
dry.
Shaving
Before you use the shaving attachment, always
check it for damage or wear. Do not use the
shaving attachment if the shaving foil unit or the

Shaving tips
-
Stretch the skin when you move the shaving
foil across it.
-
Make sure that the shaving foil is always fully in
contact with the skin.
-
If the hairs are longer than 10mm, you can trim
them first to make shaving easier.
