Usage Tips

Before using read the important safety instruction section in front of the manual.

Charging

Prior to using your shaver for the first time, put it on charge for 24 hours.

To charge your shaver:

■Make sure your shaver is turned off.

■Connect the cord to the shaver and then the charging adapter to the electric outlet. A charging indicator light will come on.

■Your shaver cannot be overcharged, so you can leave it plugged in and charging between shaves.

■Use only the charging adapter supplied with the shaver.

■Special feature allows you to run the shaver directly off the cord. Your shaver will not recharge while you are shaving, so after shaving directly from the cord, turn the unit off and set aside to charge.

■Provides up to two weeks worth of shaving after a one hour charge or a single shave after five minutes of charging.

Model R-9190

A blue indicator light shows charging. A red low-battery indicator illuminates to show when the shaver needs recharging. This also indicates approximately 5 minutes of shaving time left when indicator first comes on.

Model R-9290

A blue lighted fuel gauge displays the amount of charge remaining in 20% increments. When only 20% of the charge remains, the recharge red warning light illuminates.

Troubleshooting:

■If your R-9190/9290 shaver battery is completely dis-charged or the shaver has not been used for an extended period of time, the shaver may not start when operated using the cord. If this condition occurs, charge the shaver for approxi- mately five minutes before shaving.

■Your cord/cordless shaver should not be used strictly as a cord-operated shaver, as continued cord only use will result in reduction of battery life.

■In order to preserve the life of the batter- ies, they should be fully discharged every six months and then fully charged for 24 hours.
