Intended use
• 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.
• Do not bring the system outer foil into contact with hard
objects.
Doing so may damage the blades as they are very thin and
deform easily.
• Do not dry the main unit with a dryer or a fan heater.
Doing so may cause malfunction or deformation of the parts.
• Do not leave the shaver exposed to direct sunlight with the
foil frame detached.
Doing so may deteriorate the waterproof rubber and degrade
waterproof function, which may cause to malfunction.
• Store the shaver in a place with low humidity after use.
Failure to do so may cause malfunction due to condensation
or rust.
• 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.

10 °C – 35 °C. It may take longer to charge, or the charge
status lamp ( ) will blink quickly and the battery may fail to
charge properly in extremely high or low temperatures.
• The shaver can be used for approximately 2 weeks with a
full charge.
(Based on one 3‑minute dry‑shave usages per day in an
ambient temperature range of 20 °C – 30 °C.)
The number of usable days varies depending on the
following conditions.
‑ Beard thickness
‑ Pressure applied to the skin
‑ Usage frequency of the sonic vibration cleaning mode
• If there is noise from the radio or other sources while using
or charging the appliance, move to a different location to use
the appliance.
How to use
Shaving beard
1 Press and shave�
• The “shaving sensor”, which automatically
adjusts the power depending on the beard
thickness, will operate.
It will shave with high power on areas
where the beard is heavy, and reduce the
power on areas where the beard is thin, to
reduce burden on the skin.
• The power cannot be turned on when the switch lock
lamp ( ) blinks, as the power switch is locked.
Press the power switch for more than 2 seconds to
unlock.
(See page 14.)
Tips for better shaving
Apply the whole system outer foil
perpendicularly against the skin and
shave by slowly gliding the shaver over
the face against the grain of the beard.
• The beard under the chin and around the
throat can be shaved better by stretching
the skin so the beard will stand.
• To prevent damaging the system
outer foil, do not shave with only a
part of the system outer foil.
