Charging

Recommended ambient temperature for charging is 5 °C to 35 °C.
The battery may not charge properly or at all under extreme low or high
temperatures. Recommended ambient temperature for shaving is 15 °C
to 35 °C. Do not expose the shaver to temperatures higher than 50 °C for
extended periods of time.

• Using the special cord set (6), connect the appliance to an electrical outlet
with the motor switched off.

• When charging for the first time or when the appliance is not used for
a few months, leave the appliance to charge continuously for at least
8 hours.

• Once the appliance is completely charged, discharge it (until empty)
through normal use. Then recharge to full capacity. Maximum capacity
will only be reached after several charging/discharging cycles.

• A full charge provides at least 40 minutes of cordless operating time.
This may vary depending on the hair you are trimming.

• If the rechargeable batteries are discharged, you may also use the
appliance by connecting to an electrical outlet via the special cord set.

Charge indicator

The charge indicator integrated in the on/off switch (4) shows the charging
status of the batteries. During charging the symbol in the on/off switch
lights up permanently green. When the battery is fully charged, the charge
indicator turns off.

General hair cutting information

• The hair should be clean, well combed, tangle-free and dry.

• If you are not used to clipping hair, begin with a higher setting and then

reduce the setting to avoid cutting more hair than desired.

• Use a slow and controlled movement. Do not force the clipper through
the hair faster than the clipper can cut it.

• In between, shake or blow off the hair from the clipper. If too much hair is
caught in the distance comb, remove it.

• To control your progress during clipping, regularly comb the hair in the
style desired.

Hair cutting

Hair cutting with hair clipping comb

• Place the hair clipping comb (1a/1b) on the appliance with the appliance

turned off.

• Press the length selector (3) and slide the hair comb up to your desired
hair length. Possible length settings (mm):
Long hair clipping comb (1a) = 14 / 17 / 20 / 23 / 26 / 29 / 32 / 35
Short hair clipping comb (1b) = 3 / 6 / 9 / 12 / 15 / 18 / 21 / 24

• Turn the appliance on by pressing the on/off switch (4) and cut hair to the
desired length.

Hair cutting without hair clipping comb

• Remove the clipping comb.

• To start clipping, turn the appliance on by pressing the on/off switch (4).

• Move the cutting system only in a parallel position to the skin (A, cutting

hair). Slowly and carefully move the appliance against the direction of hair
growth.

• Only when trimming contours the cutting system should be positioned
vertically (B, trimming).

• Make sure you do not tilt the appliance while it is touching the skin (C).

• Avoid jerky movements while cutting.

Cleaning

Regular cleaning ensures better trimming performance.

Cleaning with the brush

• Switch off the appliance. Open the cutting system by pressing with the

thumb against the trimmer from the front side. It opens by ca. 45°.

• Using the brush clean the trimmers and the space behind the trimmer
(inside the housing).

Cleaning with water

• Switch off the appliance and rinse the head and the trimmer under warm

running water. You can also rinse the opened cutting system.

Keeping your appliance in top shape

To keep the cutting system working properly, oil it with light machine oil (D)
after each use, especially when cleaning under running water.
