prevent injury. You can clean the excess hair from your blades by using a small brush or
worn out tooth brush. To clean the blades we suggest to immerse the blades only into a
shallow pan of Andis Blade Care Plus, while the trimmer is running. Any excess hair and
dirt that has accumulated between the blades should come out. After cleaning, turn your
trimmer off and start clipping again.
USE GUIDELINES FOR LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES
1. The lithium-ion battery included with your trimmer does not develop a "memory
effect" like a nickel-metal hydride (NiMH), or nickel cadmium (NiCd) battery. You can
plug the adapter cord into the trimmer at any time for a full charge, or even use the
battery before a charge cycle is complete. Like most rechargeable batteries, lithium-
ion batteries perform best when used frequently.
2. For maximum battery life, store the trimmer in a partially discharged condition if the
unit will be unused for several months.
3. Do not store trimmer under 50°F or over 104°F. Do not expose trimmer to excessively
damp conditions.
4. Avoid locating the trimmer near heat vents, radiators, or in direct sunlight. Optimum
charging will result where the temperature is stable. Sudden increases in temperature
can result in the battery receiving less than a full charge.
5. Many factors influence lithium-ion battery life. A battery that has received heavy use or
is more than a year old may not give the same run-time performance as a new battery
pack.
6. New lithium-ion batteries, unused for a period of time, may not accept a full charge.
This is normal and does not indicate a problem with the battery or charger. The battery
will accept a full charge after several cycles of trimmer use and recharging.
7. Disconnect the adapter cord from the AC outlet if extended periods of non-use are
anticipated.
BATTERY DISPOSAL
The product you have purchased contains a rechargeable battery. The battery is
recyclable. At the end of its useful life, under various state and local laws, it may be
illegal to dispose of this battery into the municipal waste stream. Check with your local
solid waste officials for details in your area for recycling options or proper disposal.
