RQ1260/RQ1250
Note: The displays of the various shaver types look different, but the charging
lights work in the same way.
- Whentheshaverischarging,rstthebottomcharginglightashes,

Battery fully charged
RQ1290/RQ1280
- When the battery is fully charged, the minutes indication lights up
continuously.Afterapprox.30minutes,thedisplayautomatically
switchesoffagain.
Note: The shaver is equipped with an intelligent self-learning system that
monitors the shaver’s energy consumption and converts the remaining battery
capacity into shaving minutes. The energy consumption and therefore the
remaining number of shaving minutes depend on your skin and beard type
and your shaving behaviour (e.g. the use of shaving gel). If the number of
shaving minutes of the fully charged shaver is less than 60 minutes, this is
completely normal and does not mean that the battery capacity of the shaver
has diminished.
RQ1260/RQ1250
Note: The displays of the various shaver types look different, but the charging
lights work in the same way.
- When the battery is fully charged, all charging lights light up
