If the appliance is to be used without the adapter, at least 16 hours of charging of
the appliance is necessary. When the appliance has been fully charged, you can
run the appliance without the cord for about 45 minutes (depending on the type
of hair). Subsequently, the batteries should be recharged about 12 hours after
each charging..
How to use the adapter
Connect the switch of the adapter to the outlet of the appliance and plug the
adapter to a wall outlet. Make sure that the appliance is disconnected when
activated and wait a few seconds before you switch it on. If the appliance does
not work right away, let it charge for about 1 minute. Make sure that the appliance
is shut off during charging.
Use
•
Make sure that the appliance is clean, fully recharged or connected to the
adapter and ready for use.
Make sure to oil the cutting blade regularly to
maintain a good performance (see further “Cleaning and maintenance”).
•
The hair should be washed, combed and dried (wet hair will make it harder
to pass the comb through the hair).
•
Choose the distance comb that corresponds to the length of hair you want
(4, 8, 12, 16, 19, 23, 27, 31 or 34 mm). We recommend that you start with a
long comb the first time to prevent cutting off too much. The measurements
are marked on the combs.
•
Press the comb onto the appliance and make sure that the blades of the
comb click into the notches on each side of the appliance. The appliance
can also be used without the distance comb if you want a shaved result (see
further under “Use without distance comb”).
•
Set the desired length by means of the adjustment button placed above the
switch. The chosen length is marked with an arrow above the notches on
the side on the comb.
•
If you just want to thin the hair, push the button (2) on the thinning comb to
the left. Now the thinning comb will be in front of the trimming head.
•
Next, switch on the hair cutter by pushing the switch upwards.
• Hold the appliance with the trimming head upwards to have the flat side
of the trimmer face towards the head. Start at the neck and move the hair
clipper in short, soft movements upwards and outwards. Work your way up
to the top of the head and continue with the next section. Take your time
and stop and check the result from time to time and comb the hair regularly
to remove loose hair.
•
If the hair clipper starts to work slower, check for hair being stuck in the
comb/trimmer head. Shut off the appliance and remove all hair before you
start again. The problem may even be due to the fact that the batteries need
charging, if the appliance no longer works.
