How long does it take to fully charge the shaver?

The shaver requires a full 8 hours for initial charging. For regular use, charge once a week; a full charge provides enough power for about 5 shaves.

Can I use this shaver in the shower?

Yes, the shaver is watertight and can be used in the shower for wet shaving with lather. After use, rinse it under running water.

How should I clean the shaver after each use?

After each shave, remove the outer foil frame by pressing the release buttons, rinse the inner blade and outer foil separately under running water or in a basin. Do not use boiled water, detergent, or sea water. Dry gently and replace the protective cap.

How often should I replace the outer foil and inner blade?

Replace the outer foil every year and the inner blade every two years to maintain cutting performance.

Can I use shaving cream or foam with this shaver?

Yes, the shaver is designed for wet shaving. Use foam or lather; do not use paste-type shaving cream as it may stick to the inner blade.

What should I do if the shaver gets wet accidentally?

If the shaver falls into water, do not reach for it. Unplug the charging adaptor and handle the shaver with dry hands. Ensure all parts are dry before charging.

Is the battery replaceable? How do I dispose of the shaver?

The built-in rechargeable battery is not user-replaceable. For disposal, follow local regulations: you can remove the battery by following the steps in the manual (remove screws, pull out housing), but this is intended only for proper disposal, not for reusing the shaver.

How do I use the pop-up trimmer?

Slide the pop-up trimmer switch up to make the trimmer pop up. Use it to cut longer hairs before shaving. Apply a small amount of baby oil to the trimmer blade every third use for sharp performance.

Charging

Charge the shaver fully for 8 hours before using it for the first time, when it seems to be losing speed, or when it has not been used for an extended period. If not used regularly, the shaver should be recharged every six months to preserve battery life.

Charging once a week is recommended. A full charge will supply enough power for about 5 shaves (five minutes per shave).

Make sure the switch is in the O position during recharging. Insert the shaver into the charging adaptor. Keep the adaptor level. Plug the adaptor into an AC outlet.

The charging indicator lamp (L) will glow and it will stay on until the plug is removed from the AC outlet.

Using your shaver

(see fig. 6 through 10)

Remove the protective cap, then keep pressing the lock button (①) and slide the switch up to operate.

Apply shaving lather generously on the skin. For the best results, move the shaver in back and forth directions, while keeping the shaver head flat against the skin surface so that the two trimmers and outer foil work together at the same time. Use the pop-up trimmer to cut long hairs before shaving. Apply a small amount of baby oil to the trimmer blade every third use to ensure sharp cutting performance.

• Underarm (see fig. 7) Hold your arm up enough to stretch your skin and shave from back and forth. - Legs (see fig. 8) Be sure to move the shaver from ankle to knee. - Arms (see fig. 9) Be sure to move the shaver from outside to inside.

- Bikini (see fig. 10)

It is recommended for a proper shave to use the pop-up trimmer, sliding the pop-up trimmer switch up to make the trimmer pop up to shave extra long hair.

Cleaning

(After every shaving, you should clean it.)

Press the outer foil frame release buttons to remove the outer foil frame (see fig. 2). Rinse the inner blade with the switch on under running water or in a basin, and rinse the outer foil separately (see fig. 5).

DO NOT USE BOILED WATER.

Next, switch the shaver off, close the outer foil frame and dry it gently. After the shaving head is dry, place the protective cap.

Replacing shaving head components

It is recommended that you replace the outer foil at least every year and the inner blade at least every two years to maintain your shaver's cutting performance.

Replacing the outer foil

Press the outer foil frame release buttons to remove the outer foil frame (see fig. 2).

Then, squeeze the front and the back side of the foil frame and lift up one of the two knobs on the outer foil (see fig. 3).

Inserting the new outer foil

Slip the foil into the frame and guide the plastic edges onto the hooks in the foil frame until it clicks into place.

Replacing the inner blade (see fig. 4)

Squeeze the outer foil frame release buttons and lift the outer foil frame upward to remove it. Remove the inner blade by grasping it firmly at both ends and pulling straight away from the shaver. To insert the new inner blade, hold the blade at both ends and press downward until it snaps into place.
