Usage Tips
Charging
Prior to using your shaver for the first
time, put it on charge for 24 hours.
To charge your shaver:
■ Make sure your shaver is turned off.
■ Connect the cord to the shaver and
then the charging adapter to the
electric outlet. A charging indicator
light will come on.
■ Your shaver cannot be overcharged,
so you can leave it plugged in and
charging between shaves.
■ Use only the charging adapter
supplied with the shaver.
■ R-650s: Special feature allows you
to run the shaver directly off the
cord. Your shaver will not recharge
while you are shaving, so after
shaving directly from the cord, turn
the unit off and set aside to charge.

A green indicator light shows when the
shaver is charging.
Troubleshooting:
■ If your shaver battery is completely
dis-charged or the shaver has not
been used for an extended period
of time, the shaver may not start
when operated using the cord.
If this condition occurs, charge
the shaver for approximately five
minutes before shaving.

■ Your cord/cordless shaver should
not be used strictly as a cord-
operated shaver, as continued cord
only use will result in reduction of
battery life.
■ In order to preserve the life of
the batteries, they should be fully
discharged every six months and
then fully charged for 24 hours.
