Answer
The battery will deteriorate if not
used for over 6 months, so make
sure to perform a full charge at
least once every 6 months.
The battery used is a lithium‑ion,
so charging after every use will
have no effect on battery life.
Charging the battery for more
than 1 hour will not affect battery
performance, but disconnect the
adaptor for safety and to save
energy.
Constituent of the oil is liquid
paraffin.
The sound indicates that the
battery capacity is running low.
Please charge the appliance.
Action
Unlock the switch lock.
(See page 11.)
Problem
The shaving sensor does
not respond.
The shaving sensor
responds even though the
shaver is not in contact
with the skin.
Operating time is short
even after charging.
Action
Depending on the beard thickness
or the amount of beard trimmings
in the shaver head, the shaving
sensor may not react and the
driving sound may not change.
This is not abnormal.
The shaving sensor may not
respond when the remaining
battery capacity is low. If this
happens, recharge the shaver.
Apply oil. (See page 12.)
The shaving sensor may not
respond when there is not enough
oil on the blades.
Clean the beard trimmings from
the shaver.
When the shaver is extremely
dirty, remove the foil frame and
wash with water.
(See page 12.)
Replace the system outer foil and/
or inner blades.
Expected life of system outer foil
and inner blades:
System outer foil:
Approximately 1 year
Inner blades:
Approximately 2 years
Apply oil.
When the number of operations
per charge starts to decrease, the
battery is nearing the end of its life.
