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.

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.

Charging the shaver

Never use the AC adaptor in the bathroom or shower room.
Do not use any power cord or AC adaptor other than the AC 
adaptor (RE7‑59).
Plug in the AC adaptor into a household outlet where there is 
no moisture and handle it with dry hands.
Hold the AC 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 AC adaptor 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.
Clean the housing only with a soft cloth slightly dampened 
with tap water or soapy tap water. Do not use thinner, benzine, 
alcohol or other chemicals.
