Charging
• Before use, charge the appliance. For best per-
formance, we recommend that you always use a
fully charged appliance. Using the special cord
set, connect the appliance to an electrical outlet
with the motor switched off. Charging time is
approximately 1 hour.
• The charging light (5) flashes green (+) to show
that the appliance is being charged. When the
battery is fully charged, the green charging light
shines permanently. Once fully charged, use the
appliance without the cord.
• When the charging light flashes red (–), reconnect
the appliance to an electrical outlet via the special
cord set in order to recharge it.
• A full charge provides up to 40 minutes of cordless
operation time.
• Wet usage might reduce the operation time.
We recommend that you recharge the appliance
after each use.
• The best temperature range for charging, using
and storing the appliance is between 15 °C and
35 °C. In case the temperature is far beyond this
range, charging might take longer and the cord-
less operation time might be reduced.
Overheating protection
As a safety feature to avoid the unlikely event of the
appliance overheating, it may happen that the char-
ging light (5) shines red for 8 seconds and then the
appliance turns off automatically. In this case, turn
the switch back to the position «0» (off) and let the
appliance cool down.
How to operate the appliance
Pressing the lock key (4a) turn the switch (4) clock-
wise. You can select speed «I» or «II».
The Smartlight (3) shines as long as the appliance is
switched on. This provides better visibility of fine
hairs or skin.
