Inserting the battery

This appliance operates with one AAA
1.5 V battery. For best performance, use
an alkaline manganese battery (type
LR03, AM4, AAA). This battery provides
a shaving capacity of approximately
120 minutes. Frequent use of the bikini
zone cutting head (3) will reduce the
operation time.
• Make sure the appliance is turned off.
• Remove the battery compartment cover
(5) by pulling downwards (a).
• Insert the battery with the (+) and (–)
poles in the direction marked.
• Close the battery compartment.
Using the cutting heads
The appliance comes with different
cutting heads that are uniquely contoured
to remove unwanted hairs on every curve
of your body, face and bikini area.
Getting started
• Remove the protective cap (1).
• Slide the on/off switch (4) up to turn the
appliance on.
• Place the cutting head near to the hair
to be removed and guide it slowly
against the direction of hair growth.
For optimum results, pull the skin taut
with one hand while using.
• Turn the appliance off before changing
the cutting heads.
• To remove the cutting head, rotate it
counter-clockwise 90°, then lift it (b).
To attach another one, insert it into the
opening, then rotate 90° clockwise until
it clicks into place.
The precision cutting head (2) is perfect
for detailing of eyebrows and removal of
stray hairs on all body areas.
The bikini zone cutting head (3) is ideally
suited for use in the bikini area to cut
precise lines or contours like the bikini line.
Bikini zone trimming
For trimming hair in the bikini zone to
a uniform length, attach one of the bikini
zone trimming combs (3a, 3b). To attach
a trimming comb, slide the pointed side
over the cutting element, then press the
round side onto the bikini zone cutting
head so that it snaps into place (d). Guide
the appliance with the trimming comb flat
against the skin.

Cleaning and maintenance

Always turn off the appliance before
cleaning. Clean the appliance after each
use:
• Use the brush (6) to wipe away any hair
or dust.
• From time to time, you can rinse the
detached cutting heads under warm
running water. A natural soap may
also be used, provided it contains no
particles or abrasive substances. Rinse
off all foam.
• Please ensure that the cutting head is
completely dry before attaching to the
body
• For storage, attach the protective cap (1).
