▶ Before use

This Ladies 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. Our research has shown that you can enjoy closer and smoother shaves using warm water and shaving lather. Treat yourself to wet lather shaves for at least three weeks and notice the difference. And our popup trimmer will be able to cut longer hairs with ease. Cleaning is so simple. Just rinse out the shaving head under the tap or shower.

▶ Safety precautions

• Do not leave the shaver in places where it will be exposed to high temperature or direct contact with sunlight.
• Do not leave the shaver in direct sunlight to dry with the outer foil removed.
• The outer foil is very thin. If handled improperly, it can be easily damaged. To avoid personal injury, do not use the shaver if it has a damaged foil or inner blade.
• Wash the shaver with tap water. Do not use salt water or boiling water. Do not submerge the shaver in the water for a long time.
• Do not wipe any part of the shaver with thinner, benzine or alcohol. Clean it by using a cloth dampened with soapy water.
• Do not take the housing apart as this can affect the watertight construction.
• If the shaver is not used for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent possible leakage.
• If the shaver is not working properly, have it inspected at the place of purchase or an authorized service center.
  • Always use your shaver for its intended use, as described in this manual.
• Never alter the appliance. Also, do not disassemble or repair it.
