3

Disconnect the adaptor after charging is completed.

(for safety and to reduce energy usage)

The charge indicator lamp ( ) continues to glow after

charging is complete. There is no indication to show that

“charging is complete”.

Notes

• If there is crackling noise on radios or other devices while

charging, charge the clipper using a different household outlet.

• When the appliance is not used for 6 months or more, the battery

will weaken (leak battery ﬂuid, etc.). Fully charge the battery

once every 6 months.

• When charging the clipper for the ﬁrst time or when it has not

been in use for more than 6 months, the charging time may

change or the lamp on the main body may not glow for a few

minutes. Please charge it for more than 16 hours in such cases.

• Recommended ambient temperature for charging is 0 °C – 35 °C.

Battery performance may decrease outside of the recommended

temperature.

• A full charge supplies enough power for approximately

40 minutes of use.

The operating time may differ depending on the frequency of

use, the operating method and the ambient temperature.

• You can charge the battery before it is completely discharged.

However, it is recommended to charge when the battery is

completely discharged. The battery life depends strongly on

factors such as how it is used and stored.

Using the clipper

• Make sure that the clipper is turned off.

• Apply the oil to the clipper before and after each use.

(See page 15.)

• The appliance may not operate in an ambient temperature

approximately 0 °C or lower.

English

Trimming hair

• Do not use when the hair is wet.

A wet hair may stick to the skin or bunch up, making it difﬁ cult to

trim.

• To maintain sharpness, remove hair trimmings between usages.

• Before trimming, comb your hair with a comb.

Adjusting the length around the ears and sides

Holding the clipper with the power

switch facing outwards, trim

around the ears and sides by

lifting the tip of the comb

attachment little by little from the

hairline.

• Trim your hair while holding down your

ear with one hand.

How to align the length at the neckline and at the

back of your head

Holding the clipper with the

power switch facing outwards,

trim from the neckline to the

back of your head by lifting the

tip of the comb attachment little

by little from the hairline.

Shaping your sideburns

Without comb attachment

Holding the clipper with the power switch at the

bottom, keep the blade at an angle of 90° against

the sideburns and move the clipper from top to

bottom along the skin to trim the sideburns.

Trimming the downy hair around the neckline

Without comb attachment

Holding the clipper with the

power switch at the bottom,

touching the blade perpendicular

to the area of downy hair, and

move the clipper downward

along the skin.

90°

English

Trimming to an even length

Holding the clipper with the

power switch facing outwards,

trim slowly while crisscrossing

from various directions to

avoid missing any spots.

Notes

• It is recommended to ask someone else to trim around your own

ears and neckline.

• The desired results may not be achieved if hair is too long. In this

case, trim the hair to a length of about 2 cm before using the

clipper.

Trimming beard

• Do not use with shaving foam applied or when the beard is wet.

A wet beard may stick to the skin or bunch up, making it difﬁcult

to trim.

• Before trimming, comb your moustache with a comb.

Trimming to an even length

Holding the clipper with the power

switch facing outwards, trim by

bringing the blade in contact with

the skin and moving the clipper

against the ﬂow of the beard.

• Hair trimmings may collect inside the comb

attachment when a large volume of beard is

cut, so discard hair trimmings after each use.

Trimming the downy hair

Without comb attachment

Holding the clipper with the power

switch facing outwards, trim by

bringing the blade in contact with

the skin.

• The clipper cannot trim hair to lengths less

than 0.5 mm.
