While charging 

After charging is completed

The charge status lamp ( ) 

glows.

The battery capacity lamp will 

blink in order of “LOW”, “MID”, 

and “HIGH” while the charging 

progresses.

The battery capacity lamp and 

the charge status lamp ( ) 

will light up and then turn off 

after 5 seconds.

• If there is noise from the radio or other sources while using or charging 

the appliance, move to a different location to use the appliance.

• The battery will deteriorate if not used for over 6 months, so 

make sure to perform a full charge at least once every 6 months.

• The charging time may differ when using the appliance for the 

first time, or if it has not been used for more than 6 months. The 

lamp on the appliance may not glow for several minutes when 

first starting charging, but will glow when continuing to charge.

 •Recommended ambient temperature for charging is 

10 °C – 35 °C (50 °F – 95 °F). It may take longer to charge, or 

the charge status lamp ( ) will blink quickly and the battery may 

fail to charge properly in extremely high or low temperatures.

 •When the charge status lamp ( ) is blinking rapidly (twice every 

second), there is a charging malfunction. Please charge the 

battery in the recommended ambient temperature range.

• 1 full charge will provide approximately 60 minutes of continuous 

operation. (Based on dry using at 20 °C – 30 °C (68 °F – 86 °F)) 

The operating time may differ depending on the frequency of use 

and the operating method. 

• The battery used is a lithium‑ion, so charging after every use will 

have no effect on battery life.

• If the shape of the plug does not fit the power outlet, use an 

attachment plug adaptor of the proper configuration.

• Turn the appliance off.

• Apply the oil to the blade before and after each use.  

(See page 15.)

• The appliance may not operate in an ambient temperature lower 

than approximately 5 °C (41 °F).

 •It can also be used without the attachment. 

(Trimming height: approx. 0.5 mm (1/64”))

 •The power cannot be turned on when the 

switch lock lamp ( ) blinks, as the power 

switch is locked. 

Press the power switch for more than 

2 seconds to unlock. (See page 11.)

When the battery capacity is low “LOW” 

blinks when operating the appliance.

The appliance beeps twice after switched off.

You can trim approx. 20 minutes after “LOW” 

blinks.

(This will differ depending on usage.)
