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 14.)

• The appliance may not operate in an ambient temperature lower 

than approximately 5 °C (41 °F).

• Do not use with shaving foam applied or when the beard is wet. 

A wet beard may stick to the skin or bunch up, making it difficult 

to trim.

• Before trimming, comb your moustache with a comb.

 •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.)
