■ The clipper will be fully charged in
14-16 hours.
■ The batteries cannot be overcharged, but
we recommend that charging be discon-
tinued if the clipper will not be used for a
long period of time.
■ It is advisable not to use this clipper
directly from the power outlet when it
has been fully charged, but if while using
the clipper in cordless mode there is a
noticeable drop in power, you can use
directly from the power outlet. Never
use under water when connected to
the outlet.
■ If the clipper has not been used for a
month or longer, it is advisable to
recharge it for 14-16 hours.
■ To preserve the life of the batteries,
discharge them by running the clipper
until the blades move slowly. Switch
off and fully recharge. Do this every
six months.
