Charging

The best environmental temperature for charging is between 15^ and 35^ . Do not expose the appliance to temperatures higher than 50^ for extended periods of time.

• Using the special cord set (6) or the charging stand (7), connect the appliance to an electrical outlet with the motor switched off.
• When charging for the first time or when the appliance is not used for a few months, leave the appliance to charge continuously for at least 4 hours (HC5050/5030/5010: 8 hours).
• Once the appliance is completely charged, discharge it (until empty) through normal use. Then recharge to full capacity. Maximum capacity will only be reached after several charging/discharging cycles.
• A full charge provides at least 40 minutes of cordless operating time. This may vary depending on the hair you are trimming.
• If the rechargeable batteries are discharged, you may also use the appliance by connecting to an electrical outlet via the special cord set.

Charge indicator

• The charge indicator blinks green when the appliance is being charged. When the battery is fully charged, the charge indicator shines permanently green provided the appliance is connected to an electrical outlet.

• During cordless use the charge indicator blinks green.

• The charge indicator flashes red when the battery is running low.

You should be able to finish your current trimming sequence.

HC5050/5030/5010

• The charge indicator (4) shows that the appliance is being charged.

When the battery is fully charged, the charge indicator turns off.

General hair cutting information

• The hair should be clean, well combed, tangle-free and dry.
• If you are not used to clipping hair, begin with a higher setting and then reduce the setting to avoid cutting more hair than desired.
• Use a slow and controlled movement. Do not force the clipper through the hair faster than the clipper can cut it.
• In between, shake or blow off the hair from the clipper. If too much hair is caught in the distance comb, remove it.
• To control your progress during clipping, regularly comb the hair in the style desired.

Hair cutting

Hair cutting with hair clipping comb

• Place the hair clipping comb (1a/1b) on the appliance with the appliance turned off.
• Press the length selector (3) and slide the hair comb up to your desired hair length. Possible length settings (mm):

Long hair clipping comb (1a) = 14 / 17 / 20 / 23 / 26 / 29 / 32 / 35

Short hair clipping comb (1b) = 3 / 6 / 9 / 12 / 15 / 18 / 21 / 24

• Turn the appliance on by pressing the on/off switch (4) and cut hair to the desired length.

Hair cutting without hair clipping comb

• Remove the clipping comb.
• To start clipping, turn the appliance on by pressing the on/off switch (4).
• Move the cutting system only in a parallel position to the skin (A, cutting hair). Slowly and carefully move the appliance against the direction of hair growth.
• Only when trimming contours the cutting system should be positioned vertically (B, trimming).
• Make sure you do not tilt the appliance while it is touching the skin (C).
• Avoid jerky movements while cutting.

Cleaning

Regular cleaning ensures better trimming performance.

Cleaning with the brush

• Switch off the appliance. Open the cutting system by pressing with the thumb against the trimmer from the front side. It opens by ca. 45^ .
• Using the brush clean the trimmers and the space behind the trimmer (inside the housing).

Cleaning with water

• Switch off the appliance and rinse the head and the trimmer under warm running water until all residues have been removed. You can also rinse the opened cutting system.
