Charging the clipper (HC 50 only)
Connect the clipper to the mains with the on/off switch (6) in position «off»
and charge it for at least 8 hours. The pilot light (7) indicates that the clipper
is connected to the mains. Once the clipper is completely charged, use it
without the cord until discharged. Then recharge to full capacity again.
A full charge will give up to 30 minutes of cordless trimming depending on
your hair. However, the maximum capacity will only be reached after
several charging/discharging cycles.
Best environmental temperature range for charging is 15 °C to 35 °C.
If the rechargeable battery is discharged, you may also operate the clipper
via the mains cord. (If the clipper does not run immediately, charge it for
approx. 1 minute in the «off» position.)
General
The person whose hair you want to cut should sit in a position where the
top of the head is at your eye level.
The hair should be clean, well combed, tangle-free and dry.
Ensure you have a firm, but relaxed grip on the clipper.
If you are not used to clipping hair, begin with a higher setting and then
reduce the setting to avoid cutting more hair than desired.
Use a slow and controlled movement. Do not force the clipper through
the hair faster than the clipper can cut it.
In between, shake or blow off the hair from the clipper. If too much hair
is caught in the distance comb, remove and clean it.
To control your progress during clipping, regularly comb the hair in the
style desired.
Normal clipping
Push the distance comb (1) onto the hair clipper until it locks. The hair
length selector (5) must be in position «1».
To choose the desired length setting (4), push down the length selector and
shift it upward. To start clipping, shift the on/off switch (6) to «on».
Keep the distance comb flat on the hair, parallel to the head, and slowly
move against the direction of hair growth. The distance comb can only be
taken off when the length selector is set to «1».
