BASIC OPERATIONS
1. Charge the batteries completely before using them for the first time or if
you have not used them for a long time (charge time:8 hours)
2. The charging light will turn red when charging.
3. Charging time is 8 hours when the appliance is switched off. If you switch
on the appliance while it is charging, charging will stop, and the charging
light will go off.
4. When fully charged, the appliance works for around 45 minutes. It is
recommended not to recharge the batteries after each use, especially if
you do not use the appliance for the full 45 minutes.
5. Charge the batteries only when they are completely discharged. This
increases their service life. Avoid charging every day.
USING THE CHARGING UNIT

GROUND INSTRUCTIONS, SERVICING OF DOUBLE-INSULATED
APPLIANCES
In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are provided
instead of grounding. No grounding means is provided on a double-
insulated appliance, nor should a means for grounding be added to the
appliance. Servicing a double-insulated appliance requires extreme care
and knowledge of the system and should be done only by a qualified
service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance
must be identical to the parts they replace. A double-insulated appliance
is marked with the words “DOUBLE INSULATION or DOUBLE INSULATED.”
The symbol within a square may also be marked on the appliance.
