Shaving tips
for a close, quick and comfortable shave
• The best results are obtained if the skin is dry.
• Move the shaving unit quickly over the skin, especially against the
direction of the growth of the hairs (fig. 9).
Stretch the skin with your free hand to bring the hairs into an upright
position (fig. 10).
• If needed, apply a preshave lotion. This can be particularly helpful if the
climate is warm and humid.
Maintenance and cleaning (fig. 11-23)
• Always switch off the shaver before carrying out maintenance or cleaning.
• To avoid damage:
- Do not apply any pressure to the shaving heads.
- When cleaning the cutters (fig. 18) only brush in the direction of the
arrow.
• Use the short hair bristle for cleaning the slots of the shaving heads
(fig. 11) and cutters (fig. 18).
For all other applications use the long hair bristle.
• Clean one shaving head (guard and cutter) and place it back.
After that, clean the other shaving head and place it back.
Do not mix up the cutters and guards between the two shaving heads
as these have been especially ground to match each other.
• Keep your finger under the shaving head to prevent the cutter from
falling out (fig. 16).
Every week: fig. 11-14
Every three months: fig. 15-19
• If your skin is of an oily type, or if you have been using a pre-shave
lotion, this procedure should be carried out once a month.
