must never submerge it in water.
• If you wish to clean the blades, you
may submerge them in water. For more

3. HOW TO CHARGE
THE HAIR CLIPPER
• The battery is only charged if the switch
is down, i.e. in "off" position (Fig. 1).
• With switch (E) off, connect the device
to the mains. The battery is only
charged if the switch is off (see Fig. 1).
• Leave the device to charge for 16 hours
the first time. 12 hours is sufficient
for subsequent charges. When fully
charged, the battery will run for around
45 minutes.
• When the batteries are completely
charged, unplug the device from the
power supply and use unplugged.
When the batteries become depleted
again, repeat the charging cycle.
• Recharge the device only when it is
apparent that the hair clipper is not
operating normally.
• NOTE: The battery will reach its
maximum efficiency after various
charges and discharges.
• The hair clipper can be used connected
to the mains when the battery is
depleted. If the device does not initially
start working switch off and charge the
battery for five minutes.
4. HAIR CUTTING INSTRUCTIONS
Before starting to cut:
Take hold of the device whilst unplugged
and adjust the spacer comb (A) as desired,
changing according to the cut required.
(see Fig. 2).
When a different length is required, simply
unlock the spacer comb (A) by pressing the
clip (B) and slide it to the point desired by
moving the spacer comb either upwards or
downwards (A) (Fig. 2).
Ensure there is no hair or dirt in the hair
clipper. Turn on the hair clipper and check
that it works properly.
Place a towel around the neck of the
person whose hair you are going to cut.
Seat the person so that their head is at eye
level, so you can see better and work more
comfortably. If necessary, use books or
cushions to raise the person to eye height.
First comb the hair, removing knots or
ties. Then hold the clippers in the most
comfortable manner possible.
Relax and work with precision, making
short "passes". Do not cut the side or
the rear of the hair in a straight line; work
gradually over the entire head.
It is best to remove a small amount each
time. You can always remove more later.
Before starting, and when working, comb
hair regularly in the desired hairstyle.
Start cutting
When working with the hair clipper for the
first time, cut just a small part of the hair
until you become familiar with the amount
of hair that is cut with a particular setting.
After combing hair in the direction of
natural hair growth, proceed as follows to
achieve a fluid gradual haircut:
Step 1. The neck section
Use the spacer comb (A), hold the hair
clipper with the cutting edge facing
upwards and start cutting at the middle,
at the bottom of the neck. Press the
hair clipper lightly against the head with
the teeth of the comb accessory facing
upwards. Gradually move the hair clipper
upwards, work upwards and outwards
through the hair, removing only a small
amount each time. Whilst working,
gradually move the head of the hair clipper
towards you. Then cut the rear section from
the start of the neck to above the ears.
Step 2. Rear of head
Use the spacer comb to cut the rear of the
head.
Step 3. Side of head
Use spacer comb short settings (A) to cut
