Charging

Charging requires 12 hours.

Battery performance is best if you recharge

only when the batteries are (almost)

completely empty.

Charging, recharging or storing at temperatures

below 40ºF or higher than 95ºF adversely

affects lifetime of batteries.

Continuously recharging will reduce life of

the batteries.

This razor will not operate corded directly

from the electrical outlet.

Do not leave the razor charging for more than

24 hours.

1

Be certain razor is OFF.

2

Connect cord to razor (Fig. 2).

3

Plug the adaptor into any 120V AC outlet.

Use only the cord provided.

An adaptor plug may be necessary for charging

plug adaptor of the proper configuration for

power outlet.

4

The charging light will light to indicate the

razor is (re)charging (Fig.

time, do not recharge razor until the battery

is almost empty.

Do not keep plug permanently plugged in.

Recharging

1

Recharging requires a full 12 hours.

After Every Use: Razor Heads

The quickest and easiest way to clean the razor

heads is to rinse them after each use or at least

once a week with hot water: Water from the tap

should be on a hot setting, BUT BE CAREFUL TO

TEST WATER FIRST SO AS NOT TO BURN OR

SCALD HANDS.

Regular cleaning guarantees better shaving

results.

Do not immerse razor in water.

1

Always turn razor OFF, unplug from outlet

and remove cord from razor before cleaning.

2

Clean outside of Razor Head Assembly by

running under hot water (Fig. 6).

3

Press the Razor Head Release Button (

1)

and pull the Razor Head Assembly off the

razor (2) (Fig. 7).

4

Clean inside razor heads by running under

hot water (Fig. 8).

5

Clean inside hair chamber by running under

hot water (Fig. 9).

6

Put the Razor Head Assembly back on the

razor (Fig. 10).

NOTE: Do not wipe or dry the shaving heads

with a towel or tissue. This could damage the

shaving heads.

Every Two Months: Razor Heads

Do not mix up the cutters and combs as the shaving

performance may be adversely affected for several

weeks before optimal shaving performance is

restored.

1

Turn razor OFF.

2

Press the razor head release button (

1) and

remove the Razor Head Assembly from the

razor housing (2) (Fig. 6).

3

Turn the orange wheel counterclockwise (

1)

and remove the retaining frame (2) (Fig. 11).

4

Remove one cutter and comb out of the

retaining frame (Fig.12).

5

Separate the cutter from the comb (Fig. 13).

6

Clean the cutter with the small brush. Brush

carefully in the direction of the arrows

(Fig. 14).

7

Brush the slots of the comb in a circular

motion (Fig. 15).

For optimum performance, razor cutters and combs

should be cleaned in a degreasing liquid (e.g. Philips

Norelco Shaving Head Cleaning Spray, model

HQ110 or alcohol). This helps prevent wear of the

shaving heads.

8

Replace each cutter into the comb and

into the retaining frame.

9

Put the retaining frame into the Razor Head

Assembly and turn the orange wheel

clockwise.

10

Replace the Razor Head Assembly back on

the razor.

This razor has no other user-serviceable parts.

outlet and razor before storing in a safe, dry

location where it will not be crushed, banged,

or subject to damage.

Do not wrap cord around razor when

storing.

Store cord in a safe location where it will

not be cut or damaged.
