Setup and Charging

Before first use, fully charge your shaver. The Li-Ion battery provides up to 50 minutes of shaving time on a full charge, which typically takes 1 hour. A 5-minute quick charge is sufficient for one full shave.

  1. Connect the smart plug to the shaver and then plug it into an electrical outlet.
  2. Ensure the voltage of your outlet is compatible with the smart plug (100-240V automatic adjustment).
  3. The charging indicator lights on the shaver will show the charging status.
  4. For safety, this appliance can only be operated cordless.

Important Note on Charger Compatibility:

The provided smart plug is designed for automatic voltage adjustment (100-240V). However, the physical pin configuration of the plug may vary by region (e.g., UK 2-pin, European 2-round-pin). If the plug does not fit your local electrical outlets, a suitable plug adapter will be required. Do not attempt to force the plug into an incompatible outlet.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and hygiene of your shaver. The EasyClean system allows for fast and easy cleaning without removing the shaver head.

  1. After each use, turn off the shaver.
  2. Rinse the shaver head under running tap water. The EasyClean system allows water to flow through the cutting elements, rinsing away stubble.
  3. For a more thorough cleaning, you can detach the shaver head and rinse it separately.
  4. Use the included cleaning brush to remove any stubborn hair particles from the shaver head and body.
  5. Allow the shaver to air dry completely before storing or recharging.
