Battery operation
You can use your hair and beard cutting machine with the battery once this has
been charged up. The device is partly charged when it leaves the factory. Please
charge the device for a period of 12 hours before using it for the first time. To char-
ge up the device, insert the plug of the power pack into a 230 V/50 Hz socket and
then connect the cable with the connection socket (5) of the charging station (6) or
directly with the device. Move the function switch to the "O" position. The maximum
length of the subsequent charge cycles is approximately 8 hours. When fully char-
ged the device has a maximum operating time of 25 minutes. After this time it must
be switched off and allowed to cool down for 10 minutes. The charging LED lights
up during the charging procedure.
