Do not charge the battery after it has been removed from the product.

• Do not throw into fire or apply heat.
• Do not hit, disassemble, modify, or puncture with a nail.
• Do not let the positive and negative terminals of the battery get in contact with each other through metallic objects.

• Doing so may cause overheating, ignition, or explosion.

WARNING

After removing the rechargeable battery, do not keep it within reach of children and infants.

- The battery will harm the body if accidentally swallowed. If this happens, consult a physician immediately.

WARNING

If the battery fluid leaks out, take the following procedures. Do not touch the battery with your bare hands.

• The battery fluid may cause blindness if it comes in contact with your eyes. Do not rub your eyes. Wash immediately with clean water and consult a physician.
• The battery fluid may cause inflammation or injury if it comes in contact with the skin or clothes. Wash it off thoroughly with clean water and consult a physician.

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.
• 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.

• Store the shaver in a place with low humidity after use.
• Do not store the shaver or detergent where it will be exposed to direct sunlight or other heat sources.
• The self-cleaning recharger cleans the inner blades and the system outer foil. Brush or wash with water to remove beard trimmings in other areas.
• Depending on the environment, the shaver may not dry even if you select a mode that includes the “Dry” function. In this case, wipe off any drops of water with a dry cloth.

Clean

Cleaning using the self-cleaning recharger

▶ Preparing the self-cleaning recharger

Remove the shaver and the appliance plug from the self-cleaning recharger.

1 Place the self-cleaning recharger [B] on a hard, flat surface.

In such a case, the STATUS lamp will glow for approximately 5 seconds and the mode will switch to the “Charge” mode without allowing you to select the “Clean/Dry/Charge” mode or the “Dry/Charge” mode.

Cleaning the shaver without the self-cleaning recharger

We recommend that you clean your shaver with the self-cleaning recharger or the sonic vibration cleaning mode when the faucet symbol appears on the lamp display.

When the water does not drain from the cleaning tray

Beard trimmings may clog the drain at the bottom of the cleaning tray.

In this case, you cannot clean or dry the shaver.

Push the beard trimmings down through the drain with a toothpick, etc.

Troubleshooting

Self-cleaning recharger

Problem

The blade has not been thoroughly washed.

Action

If the shaver is not cleaned for more than 2 weeks, first clean

with the cleaning brush to remove beard trimmings. (See page 19.)

Do not add detergent and water except when replacing the

▶ cleaning liquid. Doing so may deteriorate the cleaning function. (See page 17.)

After cleaning, oil-like droplets may remain on the outside of the foil frame. This is the

▶ lubricating component of the cleaning liquid and does not indicate a problem. You may wipe it off with a soft cloth.
