• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Electromagnetic fields (EMF)

Charging (QC5050 only)

Charge the appliance for 8 hours (NiCd battery) or 12 hours (NiMh battery) before you start using it for the first time.

A fully charged appliance has a cordless clipping time of up to 35 minutes (NiCd battery) or 50 minutes (NiMh battery).

Do not charge the appliance for more than 24 hours.

1 Make sure the appliance is switched off while charging. 2 Insert the appliance plug into the appliance (Fig. 3). 3 Insert the adapter into the wall socket. The charging light will go on to indicate that the appliance is charging (Fig. 4).

The charging light will not go out or change colour when the appliance is fully charged.

Optimising the lifetime of the battery

After the appliance has been charged for the first time, do not recharge it between clipping sessions. Continue using it and recharge it only when the battery is (almost) empty.

• Discharge the battery completely twice a year by letting the motor run until it stops.
• Do not keep the appliance plugged into a wall socket all the time.
• If the appliance has not been used for a long time, it must be recharged for 8 hours (NiCd battery) or 12 hours (NiMh battery).

Corded clipping

QC5050 only:

Do not run the appliance from the mains when the battery is fully charged.

To use the hair clipper connected to the mains: switch the hair clipper off, connect it to the mains and wait a few seconds before switching it on.

QC5010 only:

1 Insert the appliance plug into the appliance. (Fig. 3) 2 Insert the adapter into the wall socket.

Using the appliance

Clipping with comb attachment

The hair length after cutting is indicated in millimetres on the display. The settings correspond to the remaining hair length after cutting. The hair length after cutting is only visible when the comb is attached.

1 Slide the comb attachment into the guiding grooves of the appliance ('click'). (Fig. 5)

Make sure that the arms of the comb attachment have been properly slid into the grooves on both sides.

2 Set the comb to the desired hair length (3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 or 21 millimetres) by turning the length lock (Fig. 6).

3 Switch the appliance on (Fig. 7).

Tips

• We advise you to start clipping at the highest setting and to reduce the hair length in small steps until you reach the desired hair length.
• If a lot of hair has accumulated in the comb, remove the comb attachment and blow and/or shake the hair from the comb. Removing the comb does not change the selected hair length setting.
• Write down the hair length settings used to create a certain hairstyle as a reminder for future clipping sessions.

Clipping without comb attachment:

You can use the clipper without comb attachment to contour the neckline and the area around the ears.

Remove the comb attachment by pulling it off the appliance (Fig. 8). Never pull at the flexible top of the comb attachment. Always pull at the bottom part.

The comb attachment keeps the cutting unit at a certain distance from your head. This means that, if you use the clipper without the comb attachment, your hair will be cut off very close to the skin.

Cleaning

Clean the appliance every time you have used it.

Do not use abrasives, scourers or liquids such as alcohol, petrol or acetone to clean the appliance.

The appliance and the adapter may only be cleaned with the brush supplied.

1 Make sure the appliance is switched off and disconnected from the mains when you start cleaning it. 2 Remove the comb attachment by pulling it off the appliance (Fig. 8). 3 Push the middle part of the cutting unit upwards with your thumb until it opens and then pull it off the appliance (Fig. 9). Be careful that the cutting unit does not fall to the floor.

4 Clean the cutting unit with the brush supplied (Fig. 10).

5 Also clean the inside of the appliance with the brush supplied (Fig. 11). 6 Place the lug of the cutting unit into the slot and push the unit back onto the appliance ('click') (Fig. 12).

This appliance does not need any lubrication.

Replacement

A worn or damaged cutting unit should only be replaced with an original Philips cutting unit.

Push the middle part of the cutting unit upwards with your thumb until it opens and then pull it off the appliance (Fig. 9).

Be careful that the cutting unit does not fall to the floor.

Place the lug of the new cutting unit into the slot and push the unit back onto the appliance ('click') (Fig. 12).

Environment (QC5050 only)

Do not throw the appliance away with the normal household waste at the end of its life, but hand it in at an official collection point for recycling. By doing this you will help to preserve the environment (Fig. 13).

The built-in rechargeable battery contains substances that may pollute the environment. Always remove the battery before discarding the appliance or handing it in at an official collection point. Dispose of the battery at an official collection point for batteries. If you have trouble removing the battery, you can also take the appliance to a Philips service centre, which will remove the battery for you and will dispose of it in an environmentally safe way.

Disposal of the battery
