this watertight shaver in the shower and clean with

water. The following symbol means suitable for use in

a bath or shower.

•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.

•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.

• Thefollowingsymbolindicatesthataspecic

detachable power supply unit is required for

replaceable by skilled persons. Please contact an

authorized service center for the details of repair.

English

Note the following precautions

►When using

•Do not bring the system outer foil into contact with

very thin and deforms easily.

•Do not drop or hit against other objects.

Doing so may cause injury.

►When storing

•Store the shaver in a place with low humidity after

use.

Failure to do so may cause malfunction due to

condensation or rust.

•Be sure to place the protective cap on the shaver

when carrying around or storing.

Failure to do so may cause injury to skin or reduce the

life of the system outer foil.

►When cleaning

•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.
