The Panasonic AC/Rechargeable Professional Hair Clipper, Model No. ER-FGP72, is a versatile grooming tool designed for professional use in trimming hair. It offers both AC operation and rechargeable battery functionality, providing flexibility for various usage scenarios.
Function Description:
The hair clipper is primarily used for trimming hair to desired lengths. It features a trimming height indicator and a dial for precise height adjustment, ranging from 0.8 mm to 2.0 mm. For longer hair lengths, comb attachments are available, allowing for trimming heights higher than 3 mm. The device is equipped with a power switch to turn it on and off.
Usage Features:
- AC/Rechargeable Operation: The clipper can be operated directly using the AC adaptor or on its built-in rechargeable battery. This dual functionality ensures continuous use even if the battery is low or if a power outlet is readily available.
- Charging: To charge the appliance, connect the appliance plug to the stand socket, place the appliance on the charging stand, and insert the adaptor into a household outlet. A full charge takes approximately 1 hour, indicated by a glowing charge status lamp. The recharge lamp blinks when charging is required, and the appliance can be used for about 5 minutes after the recharge lamp blinks. For charging without the stand, the appliance plug can be connected directly to the appliance socket, and the adaptor plugged into a household outlet.
- Trimming Height Adjustment: The dial on the main body allows for fine adjustment of trimming height from 0.8 mm to 2.0 mm. For longer cuts, specific comb attachments (3 mm/4 mm, 6 mm/9 mm, and 12 mm/15 mm) can be mounted onto the main body. When mounting an attachment, the dial should first be set to "0.8".
- Battery Life: A full charge provides approximately 50 minutes of continuous operation, though this may vary based on usage frequency and method. It is recommended to charge the battery when it is completely discharged to optimize battery life, although it can be charged before complete discharge.
- Safety Precautions: The appliance is designed for safe use, with warnings against immersing it in water, using damaged adaptors, or modifying the cord. It is also advised not to use the appliance in a way that exceeds the rating of the household outlet. Children aged 8 and above, and persons with reduced capabilities, can use the appliance under supervision. The appliance should be kept dry.
Maintenance Features:
- Cleaning: After each use, the main body, blade, and attachment should be cleaned to maintain performance and sharpness. The main body can be wiped with a soft cloth dampened with tap water or soapy water. Hairs should be brushed off the main body, around the blade, and from between the stationary and moving blades. The cleaning lever can be pressed down to raise the moving blade for thorough cleaning.
- Lubrication: Lubrication oil should be applied to the blade before and after each use. This helps prevent the appliance from becoming blunt, shortening operating time, or making loud sounds. To lubricate, remove the blade, apply a drop of oil to each indicated point, reattach the blade, turn on the power, and let it run for approximately 5 seconds.
- Blade Replacement: If the blade becomes blunt or damaged, it can be replaced. Replacement blades (WER9920) and lubrication oil (WES003P) are available as replacement parts. Using non-genuine blades may void the warranty.
- Charging Stand Cleaning: The charging stand should also be cleaned using a cleaning brush to remove hair trimmings and dust from the charging plug or the hole on the bottom surface.
- Battery Maintenance: If the appliance is not used for 6 months or more, the battery should be fully charged once every 6 months to prevent weakening. For first-time use or after prolonged storage, charge the battery for more than 8 hours.
- Troubleshooting: The manual provides a troubleshooting guide for common issues such as blunt blades, short operating time, appliance stoppage, charging problems, and loud sounds. Solutions include charging, cleaning and lubricating the blade, replacing the blade, or contacting an authorized service center for battery replacement or other repairs.
- Disposal: Before disposing of the appliance, the built-in rechargeable battery must be removed. The batteries contain alkaline fluid and should be disposed of safely at an officially designated location. It is crucial not to short-circuit the terminals of the removed batteries and to insulate them with tape. The appliance contains Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries, and their disposal should follow national legislation for environmental protection and recycling.
