IMPORTANT
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.
The comfort-hold design allows for ease of use making
the Norelco Hair Clipper perfect for quick trims or a
more thorough haircut.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 HairClipper,you will
want to try the different hair length settings...for pre-
cise,even trims and cuts.
VOLTAGE
This Hair Clipper operates only on 110-120V AC.
In North America,Central America,and South America,
the most common voltage is between 110V and 130V
AC.If operating this Hair Clipper on a higher foreign
current,a 50-Watt converter should be used. An
adapter plug may also be necessary for usage in foreign
countries.When traveling overseas,it is suggested that
you take all adapter plugs with you to ensure compati-
bility to most foreign outlet configurations.
