In North America, Central
America, and South America,
the most common voltage is
between 110V and 130V AC.
When traveling to other coun-
tries, common voltage may
range to 240V AC. Your new
razor will automatically convert
internally to work on 100V to
240V AC systems.
An adaptor plug may be neces-
sary for cord usage in foreign
countries. It is suggested that
you take all adaptor plugs with
you when traveling overseas to
ensure compatibility with most
foreign outlet configurations.
Start with a clean, dry face.
You may choose to use a pre-
shave lotion to set your beard
up for a close, smooth, com-
fortable shave, especially if
you are using an electric razor
for the first time.
CAUTION: It is recommended
that you wash and dry your
hands to remove any remain-
ing lotion before handling
your razor. Some lotions may
cause damage to the exterior
finish of your razor housing.
In addition, clean razor heads
more frequently to prevent
pre-shave lotion build-up.
