Panasonic ES8109 Operating Guide

This Wet/Dry shaver can be used for wet shaving with shaving 

lather or for dry shaving. You can use this watertight shaver in 

the shower and clean it in water. The following is the symbol of 

Wet shaver. The symbol means that the hand-held part may be 

used 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 etc. is damaged as 

you will cut your skin. 

Persons using an implanted medical electronic device, such as 

a pacemaker, should not allow this unit to touch the skin where 

the medical electronic device is implanted because this may 

cause a malfunction.
Charging the shaver

Do not use any power cord, AC adaptor or recharger other than 

one specifically designed for this model. Plug in the adaptor into 

a household outlet where there is no moisture and handle it with 

dry hands. The shaver and the recharger may become warm 

during use and charging. However, this is not a malfunction. Do 

not charge the shaver where it will be exposed to direct sunlight 

or other heat sources. Hold the adaptor when disconnecting it 

from the household outlet. If you tug on the power cord, you 

may damage it. Contact an authorized service center if the 

power cord gets damaged.

Warning - Disconnect the power cord from the shaver before 

cleaning it 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. Wipe it with a 

cloth dampened with soapy water. Do not use thinner, benzine 

or alcohol.
Storing the shaver

Disconnect the power cord when storing the shaver. Do not 

bend the power cord or wrap it around the shaver. Do not leave 

this shaver within the reach of small children. Keep these 

operating instructions in a safe place.
Self-cleaning recharger

Do not clean the adaptor or the self-cleaning recharger in water 

as it will damage them or cause an electric shock. Do not 

remove the shaver from the self-cleaning recharger while using 

a course that includes the “Dry” function. A heater is used so the 

area around the blades becomes extremely hot and you may 

burn yourself.

Place the self-cleaning recharger on a level and stable surface. 

Otherwise the cleaning liquid may spill and discolor leather 

products or other surfaces. Wipe it immediately. The self-

cleaning recharger cleans the inner blades and the system 

outer foil. Brush or wash with water to remove beard trimmings 

in other areas.
