Note: In this user manual the term `appliances' refers to the shaver and the Jet Clean System. If your shaver does not come with a Jet Clean System, it refers to the shaver only. general Danger Make sure the adapter does not get wet (Fig. 2). Warning The adapter contains a transformer. Do not cut off the adapter to replace it with another plug, as this causes a hazardous situation. These appliances are not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliances by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliances. Be careful with hot water when you clean the appliances. Always check if the water is not too hot, to prevent your hands from getting burnt. caution Never immerse the Jet Clean System and the charger in water nor rinse them under the tap. The appliances and accessories are not dishwasher-proof. Always place and use the appliances on a surface that is fluid-resistant. Use, charge and store the appliances at a temperature between 5°C and 35°C. Only use the accessories supplied. The adapter transforms 100-240 volts to a safe low voltage of less than 24 volts. Do not use the appliances if they are damaged. If the adapter or any of the other accessories is damaged, always have it replaced with one of the original type in order to avoid a hazard. Water may leak from the socket at the bottom of the shaver when you rinse it. This is normal and not dangerous because all electronics are enclosed in a sealed power unit inside the shaver. Jet clean system (specific types only) caution Only use the Jet Clean System with the original HQ200 cleaning fluid. Always place the Jet Clean System on a stable, level and horizontal surface to prevent leakage. Never immerse the Jet Clean System in water. Empty the cleaning chamber and clean it thoroughly by rinsing it with hot tap water every 15 days. The Jet Clean System thoroughly cleans but does not disinfect your shaver, therefore do not share the shaver with others. The cleaning chamber of the Jet Clean System is not dishwasher-proof. When the Jet Clean System is ready for use, do not move it to prevent leakage of cleaning fluid. compliance with standards This shaver complies with the internationally approved safety regulations and can be safely used in the bath or shower and cleaned under the tap (Fig. 3).
