Before use
1
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 the 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
1
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.
Persons using an implanted medical electronic device, such as
a pacemaker, should not allow this unit to touch the skin where
the medical electronic device is implanted because this may
cause a malfunction.
Charging the shaver
1
Do not use any power cord, AC adaptor or recharger other than
one specifically designed for this model. 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.

Cleaning the shaver
Warning - 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
1
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
1
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. Brush or wash with water to remove beard trimmings
in other areas.
