essential that the product user also exercise care
when using an electrical appliance. Listed below are
precautions which are essential for the safe use of

cord unless this cord has been checked and
tested by a qualified technician or service
person.
• Always use your appliance from a power outlet
of the voltage (A.C. only) marked on the
appliance.
• For safety reasons and to avoid maintenance
by unskilled persons, some appliances are
‘sealed’ using tamperproof screws. Such
appliances should always be returned to the
nearest Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre for
adjustment or repair if required.
• Do not operate any electrical appliance with a
damaged cord or after the appliance has been
dropped or damaged in any manner. If damage
is suspected, return the appliance to the
nearest Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre for

the use of a residual current device (RCD)
with a tripping current not exceeding 30mA in
the electrical circuit supplying power to your
appliances.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water or any
other liquid unless recommended.
• Close supervision is necessary when your

Using your Washable Shaver
Charging
• For best results use the shaver on clean,
dry skin. However you can also use
the shaver with shaving foam or gel if
desired.
• Hold the shaver at a right angle to your
skin. Apply light pressure only.
• Stretch your skin with your free hand so
that the hairs stand upright.
• Shave against the direction of growth of
hair to achieve the best results.
• After shaving put the protective cap
back on the shaver head. Avoid pressure
on the foil as this may cause damage.
• The long hair trimmer can be raised
by pushing the switch fully up. This
makes it ideal to trim longer hairs and
sideburns.
• This shaver can be operated by
connecting it to the mains or with
the rechargeable batteries to provide
cordless use.
• Your shaver has been charged to 60%
capacity which should provide you
with an initial fifteen minutes cordless
shaving time.
• Discharge the batteries fully before
charging again.
• To reach optimum recharge capacity,
the batteries should be charged for 1
hour before the shaver is used again.
The appliance is protected against over
charging but continuous charging is to
be avoided.
• A full charge will give you up to 25
minutes cordless shaving time.
• Use the shaver normally until the
batteries are completely discharged
before fully charging them again.
• To maintain optimum charge capacity,
this charging and discharging procedure
should be repeated several times per
year.
• While the shaver is charging the LED
will be illuminated.
Note: The shaver is water resistant and
may be used in the shower. Ensure that
the unit has been unplugged before using
in the shower.
Note: Allow the shaver to completely
discharge before charging the batteries
again.
If you are using a foil shaver for the first
time, it may take around three to four weeks
for your skin to get used to this new method
of shaving.
Using your Shaver
• Ensure that the shaver is charged and
the cord is removed. Alternatively, to
use with the mains power, connect the
cord to the shaver, insert the adapter to
a power outlet and switch on.

lift them from their supports (fig. 5).
