Description

The Panasonic ES-LV65 is a versatile and powerful shaver that delivers a close, comfortable shave with every use. Its advanced features and sleek design make it a popular choice among men who value quality grooming products. The shaver's linear motor and nano blades work together to provide a quick and efficient shave, even on dense beards. The multiflex pivoting head adapts to the curves of your face, ensuring maximum contact with your skin for a closer shave. Additionally, the shaver is fully waterproof, making it easy to clean and maintain.

Using the shaver

1. Rotate the lock ring to unlock the power switch. (See page 9.)

2. Press the power switch to select the desired shaving mode. 
   Each time you press the power switch, the shaving mode changes from “Shaving sensor mode”  “Normal mode” “OFF”.

   

3. The shaving sensor may not respond depending on the thickness of the beard or the type of the shaving gel and shaving foam, but this is normal.
   The shaving sensor may not respond when the remaining battery capacity is low. If this happens, recharge the shaver. 

   

4. Hold the shaver as illustrated and shave. Start 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 becomes accustomed to this shaver. Applying excessive pressure does not provide a closer shave.
