~If the device is used in a bathroom, the power unit must be
pulled out after use, as the proximity of water represents a
hazard, even when the device is switched off.
~Installation of a residual current device (FI/RCD) with a rat-
ed residual operating current of no more than 30 mA is
recommended to provide additional protection. Ask your
electrician for advice. The installation should only be car-
ried out by a qualified electrician.
DANGER! Risk of electric shock
~Never put the device into operation if there are visible
damages to the device, the battery charger or the cable or
if the device has been dropped before.
~Connect the cable to the device/battery charger before
plugging the power unit into a wall socket.
~Only connect the power unit to a properly installed, easily
accessible wall socket, the voltage of which corresponds
to the specifications on the rating plate. The wall socket
must continue to be easily accessible after the device is
plugged in.
~Ensure that the cable cannot be damaged by sharp edges
or hot surfaces.
~Ensure that the cable is not trapped or crushed.
~When removing the power unit from the wall socket, al-
ways pull the power unit and never the cable.
~Pull the power unit out of the wall socket, …

DANGER from batteries
~Protect the battery against mechanical damages. Fire
hazard!
~Do not expose the device to direct sunshine or heat. The
ambient temperature should not be lower than -10 °C and
higher than +40 °C.
~The charge contacts on the device must not be connected
by metallic objects.
~The
battery may only be charged with the original acces-
sory (power unit).
~The battery only removed for disposal must not be used
again.
~Should the electrolyte solution leak out of the
battery ,
avoid contact with eyes, mucous membranes and skin.
Rinse immediately with plenty of clean water and consult a
doctor. The electrolyte solution can cause irritation.
WARNING! Risk of injury from cutting
~The points of the comb attachments, the hair trimmer at-
tachment, the beard trimmer attachment and the precision

deep into the nostril or the ear canal.
~Do not use the device on open wounds, cuts, sunburn or
blisters.
WARNING! Risk of material damage
~ The battery charger is fitted with non-slip silicon feet. As fur-
niture is coated with a variety of different varnishes and
acrylics and treated with different cleaning agents, we can-
not rule out that some of these substances could damage
and soften the rubber feet. If necessary, place a non-slip mat
under the battery charger.
