Disconnect the power plug after charging is 
completed.
(for safety and to reduce energy usage)
The charge indicator lamp continues to glow after charging is 
complete. There is no indication to show that “charging is 
complete”.
You cannot operate the trimmer while charging.
Notes
• If there is crackling noise on radios or other devices while 
charging, charge the trimmer using a different household outlet.
• When the appliance is not used for 6 months or more, the battery 
will weaken (leak battery fluid, etc.). Fully charge the battery 
once every 6 months.
• When charging the trimmer for the first time or when it has not 
been in use for more than 6 months, the charging time may 
change or the lamp on the AC adaptor may not glow for a few 
minutes, or the operating time may shorten. Please charge it for 
more than 18 hours in such cases.
• Recommended ambient temperature for charging is 
0 °C – 35 °C. Battery performance may decrease outside of the 
recommended temperature.
• A full charge supplies enough power for approximately 
40 minutes of use. (Based on dry using at 20 °C – 30 °C.) 
The operating time may differ depending on the frequency of 
use, the operating method and the ambient temperature.
• You can charge the battery before it is completely discharged. 
However, it is recommended to charge when the battery is 
completely discharged. The battery life depends strongly on 
factors such as how it is used and stored.
