• A:Answer Try the lock/unlock feature. If you're not aware, there's a lock-on/off slide button within the power on/off button. Slide or click it to the left to unlock, I think.

Q: QuestionDoes the shaver need to be oiled every time it is cleaned with soap? (They recommend cleaning after every use.) The instructions make it look like it does need to be oiled.

Asked 4 years ago by Mark.

This question was asked about the related product: Panasonic - Arc5 Wet/Dry Electric Shaver - Matte Black

• A:Answer It doesn't say you have to, but after each cleaning with soap I do, which is about once every two weeks, since I shave both my head and face daily. I believe the oil increases the life of the blades, which I need to replace every 4-6 months. Happy shaving!

Q: QuestionIs it easy to clean?

Asked 7 years ago by Stuart.

This question was asked about the related product: Panasonic - Arc5 Wet/Dry Electric Shaver - Silver

• A:Answer Super easy to clean. Release the two black-colored side clips on the head, lift off the cover/shield, and run hot water over the blades. Lay the razor down and let it air dry. Reassemble and you are good to go. I also rinse the screen to keep it free of small whiskers. I use it everyday, so clean it about once a week.
