Thank you for choosing a Panasonic shaver ES‑LF51. With
our WET/DRY technology, you can enjoy using your
Panasonic shaver dry or in the shower or bath for gentle
and easy shaving. Please read all instructions before use.
Important
This shaver has a built‑in rechargeable battery. Do not throw into
fire, apply heat, or charge, use, or leave in a high temperature
environment.
Before use
This WET/DRY shaver can be used for wet shaving using
shaving lather or for dry shaving. You can use this shaver in the
shower and clean with water. The following symbol means
suitable for use 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 is damaged as
you will cut your skin.
Do not use the shaver if there is an abnormality or failure.
Do not share your shaver with your family or other people.
Doing so may result in infection or inflammation.
