How to use
<Charging instructions>
1)Set the switch to “0·charge”, and plug the cord into the clipper body. (Fig.1)
2)Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet. The charging indicator lamp will light up. (Fig.2)
3)When charging is completed unplug the AC adaptor from an AC outlet. The charging time is 12 hours; 1 full charge will provide approximately 60 minutes of continuous operation.
<AC operation>
1)Connect the AC adaptor to the body in the same way as for charging, and set the switch to “1” to use the clipper.
2)If the AC adaptor is connected while the switch is in the “1” position, the clipper may not operate. If this occurs, set the switch to the “0·charge” position, wait about 1 minute and then set it back to the “1” position.
3)Be sure to set the switch “0·charge” to when finished using the clipper. If the switch is left in the “1” position, the rechargeable battery will become completely discharged, shortening the life of the battery.
<10/20/30/40mm 4-Step Comb Attachment>
1)With the power switch turned off (“0·charge”), adjust the attachment to the desired trimming height by sliding it until a click is felt at one of the 4 steps. (Fig. 3)
Moving the switch to “1” will lock the attachment so that it cannot slide. The switch is designed not to work if the attachment is not in the correct position.
If the switch will not work, move the attachment up or down to make fine adjustments to its position, while operating the switch.
2)Cut hair to the correct height by moving the clipper back against the flow of the hair.
(Actual hair length will be a little longer than the height you set.) (Fig. 4)
(Do not use the clipper in an inverted position. This can cut hair too deeply.) (Fig. 5)
3)Turn off the clipper (“0·charge”) before changing the trim height or removing the attachment.
<3/6mm, 9/12mm comb attachments>
1)The cutting heights are indicated on the insides and sides of the attachments, so be sure to look for the height indication in order to mount the attachment correctly for the desired cutting height. (Fig.6)
2)To mount the comb attachment to the clipper, place one side of the hooks of the comb attachment into the attachment mounting B, then slide the other side to another mounting B in the direction indicated with the arrow. (Fig.7)
3)To remove the comb attachment from the clipper, slide one side of
the attachment off the mounting B in the direction indicated with the arrow. (Fig.8)
<Thinning Attachment>
1)To thin hair (1/3 of hair), install the thinning attachment over the trimming blades in the direction of the arrow. (Fig.9)
(Push in until a click is heard.)
2)To remove the attachment, push both sides in the directions of the arrow while pulling the attachment. (Fig.10)
<Trimming With No Attachments>
1)Cut hair by placing the clipper head directly on the scalp. (Fig.11)
Cutting without an attachment will trim hair length to 1mm or less.
<Mounting and removal of the blade>
1)Hold the clipper body with the “Panasonic” mark facing upward and push the blade with your thumb in the direction indicated by the arrow. When doing this, catch the blade in your other hand. Be sure the switch is set to “0·charge” before attempting to remove the blade. (Fig.12)
2)To remount the blade, fit the mounting hook into the blade mounting on the clipper body and push in until it “clicks”. (Fig.13)
Life of the blade and battery
<Blade Life>
Blade life will vary according to the frequency and length of use. The life of the blades is expected to be about 6 years when using the clipper twice a month for 20 minutes each time. If cutting efficiency is reduced substially despite proper maintenance, the blades have exceeded their service life and should be changed.
<Battery life>
Battery life will vary according to the frequency and length of use. If the batteries are charged 3 times a month, the service life will be approximately 6 years.If the unit is left without being charged for more than 6 months, the charge will drain from the batteries and their service life may be shortened. Therefore, even when not in regular use, it is recommended that the unit be recharged at least every 6 months.
Blade Maintenance
<Always clean the blade after each use>
BIf washing in water
1)Rinse off any hairs that are sticking to the blade in running water. (Fig.14)
2)Rinse out any hairs that are inside the clipper with running water. (Fig.15)
3)Shake the clipper 4~5 times gently, wipe off any water drops from the clipper and blade, and then place it onto a towel with the “Washable” indicator facing
