Important
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.
Using the shaver
Caution - The outer foil is very thin and can be damaged if not
used correctly. Check that the foil is not damaged before using
the shaver. Do not use the shaver if the foil etc. is damaged as
you will cut your skin.
Charging the shaver
Only use the supplied power cord and recharger to charge the
shaver. Plug in the adaptor into a household outlet where there
is no moisture and handle it with dry hands. The shaver and the
recharger may become warm during use and charging.
However, this is not a malfunction. Do not charge the shaver
where it will be exposed to direct sunlight or other heat sources.
Hold the adaptor when disconnecting it from the household
outlet. If you tug on the power cord, you may damage it. Contact
an authorized service center if the power cord gets damaged.
The adaptor is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or
floor mount position.
Cleaning the shaver
Disconnect the power cord from the shaver before cleaning it to
prevent electric shock. Keep both the inner blades inserted. If
only one of the inner blades is inserted, the shaver may be
damaged. If you clean the shaver with water, do not use salt
water or hot water. Do not soak the shaver in water for a long
period of time. Wipe it with a cloth dampened with soapy water.
Do not use thinner, benzine or alcohol.
Storing the shaver
Disconnect the power cord when storing the shaver. Do not
bend the power cord or wrap it around the shaver. Do not leave
this shaver within the reach of small children. Keep these
operating instructions in a safe place.
Self-cleaning recharger
Do not clean the adaptor or the self-cleaning recharger in water
as it will damage them or cause an electric shock. Do not
remove the shaver from the self-cleaning recharger while using
a course that includes the “Dry” function. A heater is used so the
area around the blades becomes extremely hot and you may
burn yourself.
Place the self-cleaning recharger on a level and stable surface.
Otherwise the cleaning liquid may spill and discolor leather
products or other surfaces. Wipe it immediately. The selfcleaning recharger cleans the inner blades and the system
outer foil. Wash with water to remove beard trimmings in other
areas.
