Charging the Battery
Before first use, make sure the mains voltage available in your area
corresponds to the operating voltage stated on the type label of the
charger.
1. Plug the charger (8) into a mains socket. Plug the cable of the charger
into the charging socket (7) of the hair trimmer in order to charge the
battery.
Alternatively you can put the hair trimmer on the charging base (10).
Make sure the electric contacts fit right.
2. Connect the plug with the charging base. You cannot plug it in the
wrong way. The batteries have to be charged for at least 7 hours.
The charging indicator LED (1) lights up while charging. The charger
does not stop charging automatically. Disconnect the charger from the
power mains manually.
With fully charged batteries, the hair trimmer can be operated for
approx. 30 minutes.
The operating time will slightly decrease after each charge. This is a
characteristic of all rechargeable batteries. To prevent this, we suggest
emptying the batteries completely after 10 charging cycles. Then fully
recharge the batteries and it will return to optimum performance after
recharging.
Preparation
1. Make sure the hair trimmer is in good condition. Oil the blade every
time before use. Use the oil sparingly and wipe off excessive oil with a
cloth.
2. Place a towel around the neck of the person whose hair is being cut to
prevent bits of hair falling down the collar. Comb the hair through care-
fully to remove any knots. Use the device for cutting dry or slightly
moistened hair only.
3. Have the person sit on a chair so that his head is on the same level
with your eyes. Hold the unit lightly in your hand so that you can al-
ways cut accurately.
