the mains before closing or
opening connection to the bat-

The battery of the appliance is
•
not fully charged at the time of

fully recharged before you use
it for the first time. For the first
recharge cycle we recommend
that you charge the battery for
about 5 hour. Slot the battery into
the base and plug the battery
charger into a mains outlet.
When the battery is fully charged,
•
unplug the charger from the
mains and from the appliance.
