Before use
This Wet/Dry shaver can be used for
wet shaving with shaving lather or for
dry shaving. You can use this water-
tight shaver in the shower and clean
it in water. Treat yourself to wet lather
shaves for at least 3 weeks and no-
tice 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.
Charge the shaver for at least 16
hours before using it for the first time
or when it has not been in use for
more than 6 months.

Charging
(see fig. 2)
Switch the shaver off and set it firmly
into the charging adaptor. Keep the
adaptor level.
Plug the adaptor into an AC outlet.
The charge indicator lamp will glow
red and it will stay on until the shaver
is removed from the adaptor.
You can fully charge the shaver in 8
hours if it seems to be losing speed.
A full charge will supply enough
power for about 7 shaves (3 minutes
per shave for a normal beard).
Before traveling, charge it fully for 8
hours if you will not be taking the
charging adaptor with you.
For a better shave
Put a thin layer of shaving foam on
your face which works as a lubricant.
Shaving foam is the most suitable
among many other shaving aids (gel,
soap, cream, etc.). Do not put a thick
layer of shaving foam as it may af-
fect the shaver's performance. If the
shaving head is clogged with foam,
simply rinse it under running water.
Depress the switch lock button and
slide the On/Off switch upward to turn
the shaver on. Hold the shaver at a
right angle (90°) to your skin (see fig.
3). Start out shaving by applying gen-
tle pressure to your face. Stretch your
skin with your free hand and move
the shaver back and forth in the di-
rection of your beard. You may gen-
tly increase the amount of pressure
as your skin becomes accustomed
to this shaver. Applying excessive
pressure does not provide a closer
shave.
