3. Preparation
3.1 Charging
The appliance as supplied is not yet ready for operation.
Before plugging in the trimmer, make sure that the
mains voltage agrees with the voltage specified on the
rating plate.
Prior to first use, the appliance should be charged for
2 hours.
It is not possible to "overcharge" the appliance.
NOTE
Should you use both the new hair trimmer and the
previous model, you can charge the new appliance in the
old charging unit (charging time: 16 hours) and/or the old
appliance in the new charging unit (charging time:
16 hours).
Insert the mains adapter 8 in a
power socket.
Place the charging unit 2 on a
flat surface.
Place the appliance in the charging unit. It positions
itself and starts charging. The red charging
indicator 1 is always on when the appliance is charg-
ing. Make sure the On/Off switch 4 is in the 0 position
when charging.
To maintain the charging capacity of the battery we
recommend occasionally draining the battery until
the motor stops.
