Do I have to use cord while shaving?

Absolutly not. I have never used it with the chord attached. With a full charge i used it 3 days before it needed a charge.

You do not. The cord is only to charge the shaver. You don't even have the option to run the shaver while plugged in.

It definitely says on the tag attached to the cord NOT to use the cord for this shaver in the shower. Just common sense will tell you never to do that with any cord anyway. :)

It's solid so yes you will need to heat it up to use. Haven't used it to shave before but that's a good idea. Hope this helps.

I am not sure....directions say the shorter the better and to shave a few days before using on area desired....when starting remember to plug in and turn the red ring that's what starts it.....hope this helps....

both of them have a power cord. You can shave by battery power, or with the cord, either way.

Best electric razor ever. Afraid that I do not understand your question. It is a standard kind of cord. It plugs into the stand which holds the shaver while not in use, during which time it charges the shaver. Cord serves no other purpose. J. Pierpont Tipton

No. At least not the one I received. The only cord I received is connected to the base. I think it's the 895/41 Shaver 4900 that has both the cord to charge without the base and the base unit. Read its description on line @ Amazon.com.

No, you can NOT use it while charging. Since this is a shaver that you can also use in the shower for wet shaving, Panasonic disabled this feature as a measure of safety. If you run out of battery you can quick charge it for 5 minutes, it should give you enough power for a complete shave. Hope this helps.

The charger is a brick that you plug straight into the wall, not a cord or anything you could use while shaving if that's what you're asking. The shaver sits on top of the brick when you plug it in.

According to the literature that came with my razor, one may use shaving cream or not, whichever you prefer.☺

In other words, you need only plug one thing in at a time - either the cleaning unit (which charges the shaver when it is in the unit) or the shaver itself, when the cord is plugged into it directly.

Do not press and drag the shaver. Pretend that you are shaving a balloon. The Norelco will do the job.

My husband says it has a battery that you recharge. The user's manual says you can also shave using the power cord provided, but that doesn't recharge the battery. Also, you are not supposed to keep the razor permanently plugged into an outlet.

Unbelievable but yes: The shaver will not run while plugged in to an outlet. You must wait for the shaver to recharge so as to resume. I always leave the shaver continuously charging when not in use (more than 23.5 hours a day); this maximizes the charge and has not (yet) caused the unit to overcharge or otherwise malfunction. As for holding a charge while in use, I have not timed how long it lasts. I have also not timed how long a fully charged, but unplugged and unused charge lasts either.

Yes it does work while plugged in! But, if you want a close shave this is not the unit for you! If I had to do it over, I would have purchased a rotary shaver!

Yes... not sure why it's not shown. The cord powers the base/cleaning unit and can be plugged directly into the shaver when traveling. Also not shown is the travel case, a very form-fitting item that carries the razor and a cleaning brush but not the cord. The razor can go about a week between charges so you may not need to carry the cord
