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
s h av e r.
■
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.
■
Provides up to two weeks worth of shaving after a
one hour charge or a single shave after five minutes
of charging.

Troubleshooting:
■
If your R-9170/9270/9370 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 ap p r o x i m at e ly
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.
