cleaning recharger securely (see
fig. 13, 14, 15).
2. Insert the appliance plug into the
socket (see fig. 16-1).
3. Firmly insert the adaptor into the
AC outlet (see fig. 16-2).
In some areas, a special plug
adaptor may be required.
4. Pull up the arm of the self-cleaning recharger until it clicks (see
fig. 17-3).
5. Remove the protective cap and
set the shaver firmly onto the selfcleaning recharger until it clicks
(see fig. 17-4).
• The Self-cleaning recharger is
set on the (Charge) mode when
the shaver is set on.
• Do not push the arm down-
wards.
• Ensure that the outer foil does
not get deformed or damaged
when placing the shaver into the
self-cleaning recharger.
Note
• Use the self-cleaning recharger in
environments that do not exceed
ambient temperatures of 15 to
35 °C and humidity levels of 95%.
• If it is far below or over the appro-
priate temperature, the charging
time may extend, or the Self-cleaning recharger may not function.
•
• When charging the shaver for the
first time or when it has not been in
nate for a few minutes after operation. It will eventually illuminate if
kept connected.
[for ES8078, ES8077, ES8076]
The charge status lamp will glow
when the shaver is being charged.
The battery capacity monitor will fully
illuminate and the charge status lamp
will blink after charging is completed
(see fig. 4 (A)).
You can fully charge the shaver in 1
hour if the LED display shows “low”.
The battery capacity monitor indicates the charge remaining in the
battery in 3 levels (high/mid/low). The
unit can be used once or twice more
after “low” starts to blink. (Differs depending on usage.)
[for ES8075]
The charge status lamp will glow
when the shaver is being charged.
It will blink when charging is completed (see fig. 4 (D)).
You can fully charge the shaver in 1
hour if the low battery indicator blinks
(see fig. 4 (C)).
The unit can be used once or twice
more after the low battery indicator
starts to blink.
A full charge will supply enough
power for approx. 14 shaves (3 minutes per shave for a normal beard).
It will be adjusted automatically to
voltages between 100-240V AC.
In particular, low temperature may
shorten the life span of the
rechargeable battery. In this case, the
charge status lamp blinks twice per
10 minutes after charging is
completed, the battery capacity
monitor will turn off and the charge
status lamp will continue to blink (see
use for more than 6 months, the
charge status lamp may not illumi-
•
Even when you select the (Clean/
Dry) course or (Dry) course, the
shaver might be charged by the
self-cleaning recharger.

Before use
This Wet/Dry shaver can be used for
wet shaving with shaving lather or for
dry shaving. You can use this watertight shaver in the shower and clean
it in water. The following is the symbol of Wet shaver. The symbol means
that hand-held part may be used in
a bath or shower.
Treat yourself to wet lather shaves
for at least three weeks and notice
the difference. Your Panasonic Wet/
Dry shaver requires a little time to get
used to because your skin and beard
need about a month to adjust to any
new shaving method.

among many other shaving aids (gel,
soap, cream, etc.). Do not put a thick
layer of shaving foam as it may affect shaver’s performance. If the
shaving head is clogged with foam,
simply rinse it under running water.
Using the trimmer
(see fig. 9)
Slide the trimmer handle up to open
the trimmer.
Place the trimmer at a right angle to
your skin and move it downward to
trim sideburns.
Cleaning your shaver
1 Cleaning with the self-cleaning
recharger
Preparing the self-cleaning
recharger
Warning – Do not wash or apply
water to the adaptor or self-cleaning recharger.
Failure to observe this may cause
electric shock or result in short
circuits.
1. Detach the shaver and the appliance plug from the self-cleaning
recharger.
2. Fill the water tank with water.
1) Remove the water tank from
the self-cleaning recharger
(see fig. 10-1).
2) Open the water tank cap (see
fig. 10-2).
3) Wash away the old cleaning
liquid inside the water tank and
rinse (see fig. 11).
4) Pour tap water up until the
feed water line (see fig. 12).
* Do not pour water over the
water feed line in the tank.
This may cause the cleaning
liquid to spill.
3. Firmly shut the water tank cap
and attach the tank to the selfcleaning recharger (see fig. 13).
4. Peel off the seals from the new
detergent cartridge (two seals)
(see fig. 14).
• Hold the detergent cartridge
horizontally. (The detergent
may spill if tilted excessively.)
5. Attach the detergent cartridge to
the self-cleaning recharger (see
fig. 15).
• Do not use any solution other
than the Panasonic Shaver
self-cleaning recharger special
detergent.
• Be sure to change the detergent cartridge and the cleaning liquid inside the water tank
simultaneously.
Adding water, or changing just
the detergent cartridge or the
water, will result in deteriorated
cleaning functions.
• When the self-cleaning
recharger is operated, the concentrated detergent inside the
cartridge will be diluted and the
water inside the tank will
become a cleaning liquid.
Cleaning your shaver
1. Insert the appliance plug into the
self-cleaning recharger socket
(see fig. 16-1).
2. Firmly insert the adaptor into the
AC outlet (see fig. 16-2).
10
You can always connect your shaver
to the self-cleaning recharger or the
adaptor to maintain full battery capacity. This shaver cannot be overcharged.
Before travelling, charge it fully for 1
hour if you will not be taking the adaptor with you.
Charging without selfcleaning recharger
Connect the power cord to the
shaver, and plug the adaptor to an
AC outlet (see fig. 5). The shaver will
be adjusted automatically to voltages
between 100-240V AC.
In some areas, a special plug adaptor may be required.
Using your shaver
Caution – The system outer foil is
very thin and can be damaged if
handled improperly. Before each
use, always check the foil for damage. To avoid personal injury, do
not use if the foil or other parts of
the shaving head are damaged.
Push the On/Off switch to turn the
shaver on.
If you push and hold the On/Off
switch for more than 2 seconds, it
will activate the turbo mode for
“sonic” vibration cleaning.
(see “Cleaning your shaver without the self-cleaning recharger”)
Shaving with “sonic” vibration may
damage your skin. Please turn it
off and on again to deactivate the
turbo mode.
Do not place fingers on the On/Off
switch during use.
This may cause the shaver to stop
during use or change it to the
“sonic” vibration cleaning mode.
Place your finger on the finger rest
during use.
Hold the shaver at a right angle (90°)
to your skin (see fig. 6). 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.
Pivot action selector
(see fig. 7)
Use the pivot action selector to
choose the shaving mode, “soft”
(soft) and “lock” (lock) based on your
shaving preference.
The pivot action can be changed
whether the switch is turned on or
off.
System outer foil
(see fig. 8)
System outer foil has a slit blade (a)
between 2 foils (b). They move up
and down independently to follow the
contours of your face.
The slit blade catches and cuts
longer and lying hairs easily.
For wet shaving
Put a thin layer of shaving foam on
your face which works as a lubricant.
Shaving foam is the most suitable
