1. Before using the clipper for the first time, charge it continuously for 3 hours. Maximum battery capacity will only be reached after 3 charging and discharging cycles.

2. Make sure the switch on the clipper is in the OFF position. Connect the charging jack into the receptacle on the bottom of the clipper. Plug the adapter into an electrical outlet (at the voltage listed on the label affixed to the adapter). The charging indicator will light up red to indicate that charging has begun. Charging is complete after 3 hours.

3. The adapter may become warm while charging. This is normal.

4. To maintain the optimum capacity of the rechargeable batteries, the clipper should be recharged for 3 hours approximately every 6 months.

a. LED RED Blinking – Charging

b. LED RED – Fully Charged

c. LED RED Flashing – 10 minutes battery left

If the charging light starts to flash rapidly (more than 4 flashes per second), the appliance is faulty. If this happens, please stop charging and remove the adapter from the mains.

Make sure the clipper is off. Connect the charging jack into the receptacle at the end of the clipper and plug the adapter into a power outlet.

To operate, simply slide the switch to ON (marked «l»). To stop operation, set the switch to the OFF (marked «0») position.

Always apply oil to the blades before and after use. This will ensure maximum cutting performance and proper maintenance. Hold the clipper away from your body in a downward position, and apply a drop of BabylissPro lubricating oil on the front and sides of the cutter blade. Wipe off excess oil with a soft, dry cloth.

Blades must be cleaned and oiled on a regular basis for proper functioning.

To use the comb attachments, turn the clipper to the “0” position. Slide the comb attachment onto the top of the clipper blade, and then pull down and over the back of the blade. To remove, pull up on the back of the comb attachment and then pull away from the blade.

Step 1. Unplug the unit and adjust the taper.

Step 2. Remove the screws and the fixed blade. Save the screws.

Step 3. Lift off the small moving blade and replace it with the new one on the plastic oscillator.

Step 4. Replace the fixed blade using the screws and lightly tighten them. Adjust the teeth to a gap of 1 mm to 1.5 mm, and the small, moving blade as centered and parallel as possible to the fixed blade’s teeth.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The top edge of the fixed blade must be a minimum of 1mm higher than the top edge of the moving blade, as centered as possible. This is important so that the moving blade does not come in contact with the skin. Be sure to add a few drops of BaBylissPro lubricating oil to the blades before running. Don’t forget to tighten the screws after the blades have been aligned.

The taper lever is positioned at your thumb. You can hold the clipper in your hand and adjust the lever while you are clipping. The taper lever adjusts the closeness of the cut from a close cut with the taper lever in the up position, to a longer length cut with the taper lever in the down position. To increase cutting length, slowly push the lever down. To cut closer, push the lever up.

As different cutting edges are used in each setting, using the taper lever lengthens the life of the clipper blades.

Too much hair can slow down hair clippers. Keep the clipper on for removing hair. Then push the taper lever back and forth quickly for several times. If you do this every time, especially after much hair cutting, the clipper blades should remain free of cut hair. Oil the blades after the above procedures.
