Important

Before use

This 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. The following is the symbol of Wet shaver. The symbol means that the hand-held part may be used 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.

Using the shaver

Caution - The outer foil is very thin and can be damaged if not used correctly. Check that the foil is not damaged before using the shaver. Do not use the shaver if the foil etc. is damaged as you will cut your skin.

The adaptor is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor mount position.

Cleaning the shaver
