5.1 Initial Charging

Before first use, fully charge the clipper. Connect the power adapter to the charging port on the clipper and plug it into a 100-240V power outlet. The charging indicator light will show the charging status. A full charge provides up to 120 minutes of cordless operation.

6. Operating Instructions
