Reading lamps when charging

While charging 

After charging is completed

The charge status lamp ( ) glows.

The number of the battery 

capacity lamp will increase as 

charging progresses.

All the lamps will light up and 

then turn off after 5 seconds.

After charging is completed, turning the power switch ON with 
the shaver plugged in will cause all the lamps to light up and then 
turn off after 5 seconds. This shows that the shaver is fully 
charged.
Recommended ambient temperature for charging is 5‑35 °C. The 
battery may not charge properly or at all under extreme low or 
high temperatures. 
The charge status lamp ( ) will blink when there is a problem 
with charging.
When charging the shaver for the first time or when it has not 
been in use for more than 6 months, the charge status lamp ( ) 
may not glow. It will eventually glow if kept connected.

Shave

Hold the shaver 
as illustrated 
above and shave.

We recommend using the shaver in an ambient temperature 
range of 5 ‑ 35 °C. If used outside this range, the appliance may 
stop operating.

Start out shaving by applying gentle pressure to your face. 
Stretch your skin with your free hand and move the shaver back 
and forth in the direction of your beard. You may gently increase 
the amount of pressure as your skin becomes accustomed to 
this shaver. Applying excessive pressure does not provide a 
closer shave.

Caution

If you press the power switch for more than 2 seconds, the 
sonic vibration cleaning mode is activated. 

Page 5

 

You cannot shave in this mode.
Do not place your fingers on the power switch while using the 
shaver. This may cause the shaver to turn off or enter the sonic 
vibration cleaning mode. Place your fingers on the finger rest 
while using the shaver.

Pivot action selector

Use to select “SOFT” (soft) or “LOCK” 
(lock).
You can change the pivot action whether 
the shaver is turned on or off.

Using the trimmer

Slide the trimmer handle up. Place 
at a right angle to your skin and 
move downwards to trim your 
sideburns.

Reading lamps when using

While using

Approximate amount of battery charge is 
displayed as 20 ‑ 100.

It will turn off approximately 5 seconds after operating the switch.

When the battery capacity is low

“20” blinks when operating the shaver.

You can shave 2 to 3 times after “20” appears. (This will differ 
depending on usage.)
A full charge will supply enough power for approx. 14 shaves of 
3 minutes each. (This will differ depending on usage.)
