The battery capacity monitor indi-
cates the charge remaining in the
battery in 3 levels “high/mid/low”
(high/mid/low). The unit can be used
once or twice more after the “low”
(low) starts to blink. (Differs depend-
ing on the use situation.)
[for ES7036]
The charge status lamp will glow
when the shaver is being charged. It
will blink when the charging is com-
pleted (see fig. 2 (D)).
You can fully charge the shaver in 1
hour if the low battery indicator blinks
(see fig. 2 (C)).
The unit can be used once or twice
more after the low battery indicator
starts to blink.
A full charge will supply enough
power for approx. 14 shaves (3 min-
utes per shave for a normal beard).
Before travelling, charge it fully for 1
hour if you will not be taking the adap-
tor with you.
In case your shaver is without charge,
you may quick charge it for 1 shave
in about 5 minutes.
Using your shaver
Caution – The system outer foil is
very thin and can be damaged if
handled improperly. Before each
use, always check the foil for dam-
age. To avoid personal injury, do not
use if the foil or other parts of the
shaving head is damaged.
Depress the switch lock button and
slide the On/Off switch upward to turn
the shaver on.
Hold the shaver at a right angle (90°)
to your skin (see fig. 3). Start out
shaving by applying gentle pressure
to your face. Stretch your skin with
your free hand and move the shaver
back and forth in the direction of your
beard. You may gently increase the
amount of pressure as your skin be-
comes accustomed to this shaver.
Applying excessive pressure does
not provide a closer shave.
System outer foil
(see fig. 4)
System outer foil has a slit blade (a)
between 2 foils (b). They move up
and down independently to follow the
contours of your face.
The slit blade catches and cuts
longer and lying hairs easily.
For wet shaving
Put a thin layer of shaving foam
on your face which works as a lu-
bricator. Shaving foam is the most
suitable among many other shav-
ing aids (gel, soap, cream, etc.).
Do not put a thick layer of shaving
foam as it may affect shaver’s per-
formance. If the shaving head is
clogged with foam, simply rinse
it under running water.
Using the trimmer
(see fig. 5)
Slide the trimmer handle up to open
the trimmer.
Place the trimmer at a right angle to
your skin and move it downward to
trim sideburns.

Cleaning your shaver
(see fig. 6)
Warning – To prevent electric
shock or personal injury, discon-
nect the power cord from the
shaver before cleaning with water.
For cleanliness and convenience, we
recommend that you clean your
shaver with water and a liquid hand
soap. Regular cleaning will keep your
shaver in good condition while pre-
venting odors or bacteria from devel-
oping, and maintain the cutting per-
formance.
With the system outer foil in place,
apply some hand soap onto the outer
foil.
Turn the shaver on and pour some
water over the outer foil.
After about 10-20 seconds, turn the
shaver off.
Remove the foil frame and clean
it with running water.
Wipe off any moisture from the
shaver with a dry cloth and remove
the protective cap to allow the sys-
tem outer foil to dry completely.
Brush cleaning
Squeeze the foil frame release but-
tons and lift the foil frame upward to
remove it (see fig. 8). Remove the in-
ner blades one at a time by grasping
it firmly at both ends and pulling it
straight away from the shaver. Clean
the outer foils, the shaver body and
the trimmer with the long brush (see
fig. 9). Clean the inner blades with
the short brush by moving it in the
direction in fig. 10 (A). Do not move
the brush in the direction in fig. 10
(B), as it will damage the inner blade,
and its cutting performance. Do not
use the short brush to clean the outer
foils.
Replacing shaving head
components
It is recommended that you replace
the system outer foil at least once a
year and the inner blade at least once
every 2 years to maintain your shav-
er’s cutting performance.
Replacing the system outer foil
(see fig. 7)
Squeeze the system outer foil re-
lease buttons and lift the system
outer foil upward to remove it. To in-
sert the new system outer foil, press
down until it snaps into place.
Replacing the inner blades
(see fig. 8)
Squeeze the foil frame release
buttons and lift the foil frame
upward to remove it. Remove the
inner blade one at a time by
grasping it firmly at both ends
and pulling straight away from
the shaver.
Do not touch the metal parts of inner
blades.
To insert the new inner blade, hold
the blade one at a time at both ends
and press downward until it snaps
into the shaver.
