Charging
Before using your shaver for the first time, put
it on charge for 24 hours.
To Charge Your Shaver
The MS5100 and MS5200 can be
recharged by plugging it into the cord
directly.
■ Use only the charging adapter supplied
with the shaver.
■ Make sure your shaver is turned off.
■ Connect the cord to the shaver, then
plug the charging adapter into the
electrical outlet. A charging indicator
light will come on.
■ Your shaver cannot be overcharged, so
you can leave it plugged in and charging
between shaves.
■ To preserve the life of the batteries, let
them fully run out every six months,
then recharge them for a full 24 hours.
■ Cord/cordless rechargeable shavers
(MS5200 only) can run directly off the
cord if necessary. They will not recharge
while you are shaving, so after shaving
with the cord, turn the unit off and set it
aside to charge. Cord/cordless shavers
should not be used strictly as cord-
operated shavers, as continued cord-
only use will result in reduction of
battery life.
■ If your shaver’s charge runs out in the
middle of a shave, you can push the
power reserve button to get an extra 5
minutes of power, on the MS5200.
NOTE: If your shaver battery is completely
discharged or the shaver has not been used
for a long time, the shaver may not start
when operated using the cord. If this
happens, charge the shaver for approxi-
mately five minutes before shaving.
Removing the Headguard
Before operating your
shaver, remove the head-
guard, which protects the
screen and cutter assem-
bly. Simply push up from
the front or the back until
it pops off.
!
Always keep the protective head guard
on the shaver head and keep the trimmer
in the OFF position when the shaver is not
in use.
Operating the Trimmer
Your shaver is equipped
with a 3-position trim-
mer. Use the trimmer
push tab to extend or
retract the trimmer.
1. Completely retracted (down), the trimmer
is out of the way and off, for when you
want to use the screens alone. Press the
trimmer down with your thumb to get it
into this position.
2. In the middle position, the trimmer works
with the screens, cutting the longer,
hard-to-shave hairs so the screens can
get in extra close. Slide the trimmer into
the position level with the foils.
3. Fully extended (up), the trimmer can be
used to trim your sideburns and mus-
tache. Slide the trimmer into the top
position, above the foils.
How to Use
Operating the Pop-up
Mini-foil
Your shaver is equipped with a 2-position
mini-foil. Use the mini-foil push tab to
extend or retract the mini foil.
1. Completely retracted (down), the mini-foil
works with the 2 large screens to provide
a close and comfortable shave.
2. Fully extended (up), the mini-foil can be
used to provide a close shave for small
or difficult-to-reach areas, for a detailed
look.
!
Do NOT retract the mini-foil by pressing
down directly on the screen. This could
permanently damage the screen.
