- Hold the shaver at a right angle (90 degrees) to your skin.
- Gently glide the shaver against the direction of hair growth.
- Do not apply excessive pressure; let the shaver do the work.

6. Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your shaver.
6.1. Cleaning the Shaver Head
- Turn off the shaver and remove the batteries before cleaning.
- Carefully remove the shaving foil head.
- Brush away any accumulated hair from the foil and cutter blades using the provided cleaning brush (if included) or a soft brush.
- The shaver head is washable. You may rinse the shaving foil and cutter blades under running water. Ensure they are completely dry before reassembling.
- Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the shaver.
- Reattach the shaving foil head securely.
6.2. Blade Care
The shaver uses stainless steel foil blades. Over time, these may wear down. Replace the shaving foil and cutter block when you notice a decrease in shaving performance or if the foil becomes damaged. Replacement parts are typically available from the manufacturer or authorized retailers.
