QUICK CHARGE

The quick charge feature allows you to charge your shaver for five minutes if the battery is flat. This will give you five minutes of use (enough for one shave) at the normal motor speed (without using the turbo mode).

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USEIt is recommended that you use your new shaver daily for up to four weeks to allow time for your facial hair and skin to become accustomed to the new shaving system.1. Switch the shaver on by pressing the on/off switch.2. Stretch the skin with your free hand so the hairs stand upright.3. Use short linear strokes.· Only apply light pressure on the shaving head while shaving (pressing too hard can damage the heads and make them vulnerable to breakage).

TURBO MODEDuring use, pressing the on/off button a second time increases the motor speed to provide a more powerful shave. This is ideal for shaving facial hair that is 2-3 days old, or heavier parts of the facial hair. When activated, TURBO will be shown on the display.

USING THE POP-UP INTERCEPT TRIMMERThe pop-up intercept trimmer has three positions and can be raised or lowered to suit the shaving task:

  • Fully down – use this position when shaving light facial hair.
  • Level (trimmer level with the foils) – in this position the trimmer acts as an extra cuttingelement.
  • Fully up – use this position for detail trimming.

HEADLOCKNormally, the head pivots freely but its movement can be restricted by sliding the headlock button to the LOCK position.

SWITCHING OFFPress the on/off button (several times if required) until your shaver stops.

TRAVEL LOCKThe travel lock prevents your shaver from accidentally switching on when it is packed in luggage.To lock: Press and hold the on/off switch for three seconds. Your shaver will start for three seconds and then switch off. The L icon will flash five times. To unlock: Press and hold the on/off switch for three seconds. After three seconds your shaver will turn on.

TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS

  • Always hold the shaver at right angles to the skin so that the shaved head is touching the skin with equal pressure.
  • Use slow to moderate stroking movements. The use of short linear motions in stubborn areas may obtain a closer shave, especially along the neck and chin line.
  • DO NOT press hard against the skin in order to avoid irritation and damage to the intercept heads.

SHAVING WITH SHAVING GEL OR FOAM

  • Follow the same instructions as dry shaving if using shaving gel.
  • After use with shaving gel, please ensure the head and cutters are rinsed under warmwater to clean away any excess gel and debris.
