Trimming tips

• If you are trimming for the first time, be careful. Do not move the product too fast. Make smooth and gentle movements.
• When you trim for the first time, use trimming setting 7 (9/32 in./7mm) to familiarize yourself with the product.
• Since all hairs do not grow in the same direction, you may want to try different trimming directions(i.e. upwards, downwards, or across). Practice is best for optimum results.
• Always make smooth and gentle movements and be sure the surface of the guard always stays in contact with your skin.

Shaving

• 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 13/32in. (10 mm), Trim hair to a length of 1/8in. (3mm) 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.

1. Press the shaver head on/off button to turn on the product (Fig. 11).
2. Stretch your skin taut with your free hand (Fig. 12), (Fig. 13). Gently press the shaver head to the skin and move it slowly and smoothly against the direction of hair growth (Fig. 14),.
   Do not press too hard. Too much pressure can distort the foil and cause skin irritation.
3. Make sure the shaver head is always in full contact with your skin.
