Preparing the appliance for use
The Ladyshave runs on two R6 AA 1.5 volt
batteries.
We strongly advise you to use Philips LR6
PowerLife batteries. They supply sufficient energy
for approx. 40 minutes of shaving.
Batteries contain substances that may pollute the
environment.
Make sure your hands and the appliance are dry
when inserting the batteries.
1 Remove the cover of the battery holder
(H) by pulling it in the direction of the
arrow (fig. 2).
2 Put the batteries in the battery holder
(fig. 3).
Make sure the + and - poles of the batteries are
pointing in the right direction.
3 Push the cover of the battery holder back
onto the appliance ('click').
◗ To avoid damage due to battery leakage:
B
Do not expose the Ladyshave to direct sunlight.
B
Do not expose the appliance to temperatures
higher than 35cC.
B
Remove the batteries if the appliance is not going
to be used for a month or more.

Using the appliance
The Ladyshave is suitable for:
- shaving the underarms;
- shaving the legs;
- shaving the bikini line.
On wet skin
You can use your Ladyshave on wet skin, e.g.
while having a bath or shower.
The best results are obtained if you lather your
skin (with soap or shaving cream) before you start
shaving (fig. 4).
On dry skin
If you prefer to use the Ladyshave dry, make sure
that your skin is clean and completely dry.
B
There is no difference between using the
appliance on wet skin and using it on dry skin.
B
Do not apply alcohol based-lotions to the skin
directly before or after shaving. If you want, you
can apply some talcum powder.
B
Avoid pressing the shaving head too hard onto the
skin as this will adversely affect shaving
performance and may cause some skin irritation.
Legs and bikini line
1 Switch the appliance on by moving the slide
(F) to position I (fig. 5).
Stretch the skin with your free hand to make the
hairs stand upright.
2 Place the straight trimmer (C) and the
shaving foil (D) gently on the skin.
3 Move the Ladyshave slowly over the skin
against the direction of hair growth while
pressing it lightly (fig. 6).
4 Switch the appliance off by moving the slide
(F) to position O (fig. 7).
Underarms
1 Switch the appliance on by moving the slide
(F) to position I (fig. 5).
When shaving the underarm area, place one arm
behind your head to stretch the skin.
2 Place the rounded trimmer (E) and the
shaving foil (D) gently on the skin.
3 Move the Ladyshave slowly over the skin.
You can move the Ladyshave up and down or
from the left to right (fig. 8), depending on which
movement you find most pleasant.
4 Switch the appliance off by moving the slide
(F) to position O (fig. 7).
Storage

after use.
The protection cap prevents the shaving foil and
two trimmers from becoming damaged.
