INDICATIONS
21 Day Trial and Conversion Process. It is a fact that your
skin and beard need time to adjust to a new shaving system.
Use your new razor exclusively for 3 weeks to fully enjoy
the closeness of a Norelco shave.*
LED Charging Indicator Light
The green Charging Indicator Light will light up to indicate
razor is (re)charging.
At first you may not get as close a shave as you expect,
or your face may even become slightly irritated.This is
normal since your beard and skin will need time to adjust.
Invest 3 weeks and you'll soon experience the full joy
of your new razor.
* Stick with it! If you alternate shaving methods during
the adjustment period, it may make it more difficult to
adapt to the Norelco shaving system. If you are still
not convinced after 21 days, Norelco will refund you the
full purchase price, guaranteed.
CHARGING
Battery performance is best if you recharge only when
the batteries are (almost) completely empty.
Charging or recharging at temperatures below 40ºF or
higher than 95ºF adversely affects lifetime of batteries.
HOWTO SHAVE WITH AN ELECTRIC RAZOR
Continuously recharging will reduce life of batteries.
Shaving with skin dry gives the best results.
Turn razor ON or plug in if using corded. Shave against the
direction of beard growth using both straight and circular
movements.
You may also shave using the cord provided.

This razor will not recharge while being used corded.
If razor has not been used for at least 1 month, razor must
be recharged for a full 8 hours.

Connect cord to razor. Plug into any 120V to 240V AC/DC
outlet. Use only the cord provided.The green indicator light
lights up to indicate razor is (re)charging.You can
shave immediately (corded).
Stretch your skin with your free hand so blades can lift
and cut whiskers. Gently press razor to skin, so the
floating heads can follow the contours of your face. DO
NOT press too hard. Too much pressure can pinch the
skin into the combs.
An adaptor plug may be necessary for cord usage in some
foreign countries.Your new razor will automatically convert
internally to work on 100V to 240V AC/DC systems.
