IMPORTANT !
Switch charger off at the wall socket
before connecting or disconnecting the
trimmer to the wall bracket.
1. It is recommended that the wall bracket (F2)
should be mounted on a smooth, vertical and
internal wall which is strong enough to hold the
weight of the product, in a well ventilated area
between 5°C and 25°C.
2. There are 3 holes on the wall bracket.
Position the wall bracket with the two holes at
the top. See Fig G.
3. Ensure that when the trimmer is attached the
bottom of the trimmer is within 4 inches (100
mm) of the ground, this will make it easier to
hang the trimmer and will also ensure that the
wall bracket is within easy reach of an electric
socket to allow the charger to be plugged in.
4. Fix wall bracket securely to the wall with the
plugs and screws provided.
5. Your cordless trimmer can now be attached to
the wall bracket for charging.
Initial Charging Procedure
1. Use the charger indoors only.
2. Ensure the charger is not exposed to moisture.
Keep the charger and the trimmer dry at all
times. Keep the charger well ventilated during
charging.
3. Ensure the product is correctly located into the
wall bracket (F2) and the charge connector
(G1).
4. Plug the charger (F1) into a suitable household
electrical wall socket and switch on.
5. The red indicator lamps (F3, F4) glow
continuously during charging.
The red indicator lamp on the product (F3) is
a power indicator and will continue to glow
red even when the battery is fully charged.
6. Full charge will be achieved in 24 hours after
which the indicator lamp on the charger (F4)
will turn to green. During charging the charger
becomes warm. This is normal and means the
charger is operating correctly.
Re-Charging Your Product
1. Re-charge the battery as soon as the cutting
power of your product begins to die and slow
down.
2. Avoid running the product into "deep"
discharge, i.e. avoid flattening the battery
completely.
3. Follow the procedure outlined in the Initial
Charging Procedure.
4. Charging the battery according to these
instructions should ensure maximum battery
life.
The charger will automatically keep the
battery topped up with charge during
storage and will ensure that the cordless
trimmer is ready for use.
The battery should be charged for 24 hours
before use.
Re-charge your cordless trimmer
immediately after every use for the full 24
hour charging period.
The cordless trimmer can be left
connected to the charger permanently, with
the charger switched on, without fear of
overcharging.

Battery Care
1. If over a period of time the battery quickly runs
down after a full 24 hour charging period, a
replacement battery is needed.
2. There will be some charge present in the
battery but to ensure maximum running time,
recharge your trimmer for 24 hours before use.
3. Permanent connection to the charger in a well
ventilated area will automatically keep your
battery fully charged ready for use.
4. To prevent permanent battery damage, never
store in a discharged condition.

centre/dealer/distributor for a replacement
battery and for safe disposal of your old
