Charging the shaver
• When the shaver is completely discharged, you cannot
know if it is switched on or not. When you connect the
shaver to the mains, make sure the green charging light
illuminates. If it does not, push the start/stop button
(turning off the shaver). The shaver is only charging when
the green light is on.
• First charging: Using the power supply cord set, connect
the shaver to the mains and charge it for at least 4 hours
(shaver and adapter might get warm). Once the shaver
is completely charged, shave without the cord until fully
discharged. Then recharge to full capacity again (subse-
quent charges will take about 1 hour).
• A full charge will give up to 50 minutes of cordless
shaving time depending on your beard growth. However,
the maximum battery capacity will only be reached after
several charging/discharging cycles.
• Best environmental temperature range for charging is
15 °C to 35 °C.
Indicator lights
The green charging light shows that the shaver is being
charged. When the rechargeable battery is fully charged,
the charging light goes off. If later on, the charging light
comes on again, this indicates that the shaver is being
recharged to maintain its full capacity.
Model 6680 only: The red low-charge light glows when
the battery capacity has dropped below 20%, provided
the shaver is switched on. The remaining capacity will
then be sufficient for 2 to 3 shaves.
Preserving the cell unit
In order to maintain the optimum capacity of the
rechargeable battery, the shaver has to be fully dis-
charged (by shaving) every 6 months approximately.
Then recharge the shaver to full capacity again.
Do not expose the shaver to temperatures of more than
50°C for longer periods of time.
Shaving with the cord
If the rechargeable battery is discharged, you may
also shave with the shaver connected to the mains via
the power supply cord set (if the shaver does not run
immediately, turn it off and charge for approx. 1 minute).
Then shave with the cord connected.
