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.
This shaver body has a waterproof performance that is 
compliant to the “IPX5” and “IPX7”, and the adapter has a 
waterproof performance that is compliant to the “IPX4”.
Self‑cleaning recharger is not waterproof.
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.
Charging	the	shaver
Do not use any power cord, AC adaptor or recharger other than 
one specifically designed for this model. Use the RE7‑51 
adaptor only for ES‑RT81 shaver. Plug in the adaptor into a 
household outlet where there is no moisture and handle it with 
dry hands. The shaver and the recharger may become warm 
during use and charging. However, this is not a malfunction. Do 
not charge the shaver where it will be exposed to direct sunlight 
or other heat sources. Hold the adaptor when disconnecting it 
from the household outlet. If you tug on the power cord, you 
may damage it. The supply cord cannot be replaced. If the cord 
is damaged, the appliance should be scrapped.
Cleaning	the	shaver
Warning
Disconnect	the	power	cord	from	the	shaver	before	
cleaning	it	in	water	to	prevent	electric	shock.
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. Wipe it with a 
cloth dampened with soapy water. Do not use thinner, benzine 
or alcohol.
Storing	the	shaver
Disconnect the power cord when storing the shaver. Do not 
bend the power cord or wrap it around the shaver. This 
appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) 
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of 
experience and knowledge, unless they have been given 
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a 
person responsible for their safety. Children should be 
supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. 
Keep these operating instructions in a safe place.
Self-cleaning	recharger
Do not clean the adaptor or the self‑cleaning recharger in water 
as it will damage them or cause an electric shock. Do not 
remove the shaver from the self‑cleaning recharger while using 
a course that includes the “Dry” function. A heater is used so the 
area around the blades becomes extremely hot and you may 
burn yourself.
Place the self‑cleaning recharger on a level and stable surface. 
Otherwise the cleaning liquid may spill and discolor leather
