Instructions for Use
To reduce the risk of electric shock:
1. Do not reach for a clipper that has fallen
into water. Unplug immediately.
Like many new products, your Norelco Hair Clipper
may take a little getting used to. If you are using a hair
clipper for the first time, or if you’ve used a different
brand, take a moment to familiarize yourself with your
new Norelco Hair Clipper.
2. Do not use while bathing or in a shower.
3. Do not place or store clipper where it can
fall or be pulled into a tub or sink. Do not
place in or drop into water or other liquid.
4. Always unplug clipper from the electrical
outlet immediately after using, except when
clipper is (re)charging.
10. To prevent possible damage to the cord, do not
wrap cord around clipper.
11. Never put clipper in direct sunlight or store at a
temperature above 140°F.
12. Do not use in the presence of infectious disease.
The comfort-hold design allows for ease of use making
the Norelco Hair Clipper perfect for quick trims or a
more thorough hair cut.When you first use your Hair
Clipper, you may want to begin at the highest (longest)
setting (#7) to prevent trimming off too much hair. For
best results, comb hair often as you trim–this will help
to keep sides, bangs and neckline even.As you become
more familiar with your Norelco Hair Clipper, you will
want to try the different hair length settings... for pre-
cise, even trims and cuts.
5. Unplug clipper before cleaning.
