VERY IMPORTANT
Blades must be cleaned and oiled on a regular basis so they
will function properly. Failure to regularly clean and oil the
blades will void the warranty.
About the Lithium-Polymer Battery Pack
To ensure that the new battery reaches its full potential, the
battery should be drained to rapid ashing red LED after the rst
use. This operation will only have to be performed once. The unit
should then be fully charged until blue LED appears.
The full potential of the battery will be reached after the clipper is
plugged into the charger or power supply cord approximately 5
to 10 times, even if not fully drained.
