Inserting the batteries

This appliance operates on two 1.5 V
batteries. For best performance, use
alkaline manganese batteries (type LR 6,
AM3, AA, e.g. Duracell). These batteries
provide a shaving capacity of up to 90
minutes approximately.
Open the battery compartment and
insert the batteries with the poles in the
direction marked. Before closing the
battery compartment, make sure the
cover is dry and clean.
Shaving
For radiant skin, the Silk&Soft system
captures even problem hairs, the
integrated SoftStrip stretches the skin
to ensure a closer reach and the floating
shaver foil and the floating longhair
trimmer hug the skin, all to ensure a
perfectly close shave. For a gentle shave,
the EasyGlide cushion ensures smoother
gliding and reduces skin irritation.
The additional OptiShave attachment (1)
allows an extra close and comfortable
shave of legs.
• Press and slide up the on/off switch to
turn the shaver on. Make sure that the
TrimLock (2f) is in the «
10
/ »
» position.
• For optimum shaving results, place the
OptiShave attachment onto the shaver
head (A). It ensures perfect closeness
and the optimum usage angle so that
both, the shaver foil and the long hair
trimmer are in contact with the skin.
• Move the appliance slowly against the
direction of hair growth. Adjusting to
the body contours, the long hair trim-
mer first raises all long hairs and cuts
them off. Then the shaver foil follows
to smooth away any stubble.
• If you have not shaved for a long
period of time, remove the OptiShave
attachment to allow a faster pre-cutting
of longer hairs (B).
• Always ensure that both, the shaver foil
and the long hair trimmer are in contact
with the skin.
Wet usage
The appliance can also be used on wet
skin. Make sure that the skin is very moist
to achieve optimum gliding conditions.
Wet usage on sensitive skin might lead to
skin irritations (e.g. reddening).
Shaving your legs with the exfoliation
attachment
Instead of the OptiShave attachment,
you may want to use the exfoliation
attachment (6) that helps enhancing the
general look of the skin surface thanks
to its exfoliation pad. The exfoliation
pad gently scrubs the skin to remove
dead skin particles, thus revitalizing the
skin and giving it a radiant lode.
Proceed as follows:
– Remove the OptiShave attachment (1)
and replace it with the exfoliation
attachment (6).
– When guiding the appliance slowly
against the direction of hair growth,
make sure that the long hair trimmer,
the shaver foil and exfoliation pad are
in contact with the skin.
