Tips For Use
• Clean your shaver frequently.
• Always keep the protective headquard on the cutter head and keep
the trimmer in the “of f” position when the shaver is not in use.
• Before using,make sure that the cutter head assembly is in locked
position.
• Wait at least 15 minutes after getting up before shaving.
• Thoroughly cleanse and dry skin prior to shaving.
• Your R-850 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.

before you shave.The floating heads will automatically adjust to the

nate between shaving methods.
