Operating Instructions of Andis Titanium Foil Shaver TS-1

CHARGING SHAVER

This battery charger is intended for use with Andis model TS-1 lithium-ion battery with a rated capacity of 3.7V 2.8 Wh. Remove the shaver and AC adapter from the carton.
Plug the adapter into a 100/240V AC outlet, or according to your local power standards. Note that the shaver ON/OFF switch must be in the OFF position for the battery to charge.
Plug the cord adapter directly into the inlet on bottom of shaver (Figure A). The green charging indicator light on the shaver will turn on. The shaver has not been charged at the factory.
Please charge the shaver for 2 hours before the first use for maximum performance. You can keep the shaver plugged into the adapter when not in use.
The adapter will maintain the battery at full charge and the green charging indicator light will stay on. The adapter should be unplugged if the shaver won’t be used for seven or more days.

FAILURE TO CHARGE

Make sure voltage is present at the wall outlet (confirm with an appliance you know is working).
Check to make sure adapter cord is plugged firmly into shaver. Twist the adapter connector slightly to insure good electrical connection.

If failure to charge still exists, return shaver to Andis or an Andis Authorized Service Station for examination and repair or replacement.

USE WITH CORD ADAPTER

If the shaver powers OFF while in use, the power cord can be attached to continue use in corded operation (Figure A). When the shaver is running with the power cord attached, the green charging indicator light will remain off, even if the battery is partially or fully discharged. The shaver will not charge while in use with the cord attached. This power unit is intended to be correctly orientated in a vertical or floor mount position.

FOR SHAVING

Keep the unit clean and dry at all times.
Remove the protective plastic headguard.
Check to make sure the outer foils and inner cutters are not damaged. Replace damaged parts before using. For more information on replacement parts, contact Andis or the nearest Andis Authorized Service Station.
Ensure that the battery is charged.
Wash and dry your skin thoroughly prior to shaving.
Slide the ON/OFF switch up to the ON position.
Gently stretch the skin of your face with your free hand while moving the shaver slowly and smoothly against the grain of your beard. Using short, circular strokes will make the hairs stand out from your face and make shaving easier. Hold the shaver at a 90 degree angle to your face while maintaining contact with the foil.
In order to achieve the closest shave and avoid unnecessary wear on the foils, be sure that both foils contact the skin simultaneously at all times. Holding the shaver at an angle where only one foil contacts the skin will cause distortion of the foil and may result in skin irritation.
To facilitate cutting and avoid foil wear, use minimal pressure to apply the shaver to your skin.
To maximize shaving comfort, be sure to clean the shaver thoroughly after use.

USER MAINTENANCE

If shaver is to remain unused for a long period of time, store in a safe, cool, dry place. Do not wrap cord tightly around shaver. Do not hang the shaver by the power cord. Other than the recommended maintenance described in this manual, no other maintenance should be performed, except by Andis Company or an Andis Authorized Service Station.
IMPORTANT: For best shaver performance and results, it is recommended that you replace your shaver’s foil assembly and cutters every six months.

TO REPLACE FOIL ASSEMBLY

Remove the foil assembly by pressing the round assembly lock button located on the right side of the shaver. Grasp the foil assembly on both sides and gently lift it off the shaver (Figure B).
Position the replacement foil assembly over the cutters. Be careful not to damage the foils. Gently slide the foil assembly down until it snaps firmly into place.

TO REPLACE CUTTERS

NOTE: Always replace the foil assembly when replacing the cutters.

To remove a cutter, grasp it on both sides and pull up (Figure C).
To replace a cutter, hold it on both sides and line up the small metal shaft on its underside with the notch on the shaver drive and push down firmly until it snaps into place.
Replace foil assembly.

Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use attachments not recommended by Andis.

Andis Titanium Foil Shaver TS-1 Cleaning

Regular cleaning is necessary in order to maintain the optimal performance and maximum comfort from your shaver. Do NOT run shaver, foil assembly or cutters under water. Use only the small brush (included) to clean.

DRY CLEANING WITH BRUSH

Remove the foil assembly by pressing the round button located on the right side of the unit. Grasp the foil assembly on both sides and gently lift it off of shaver (Figure C).
Gently tap the base of the foil assembly on a flat surface so that the hairs inside fall out. Do not remove the foils or they may be damaged accidentally.
Lightly brush the hairs out from the cutters. You can remove them from the shaver if necessary. Blow out any remaining loose hairs.
Replace the cutters and foil assembly.

USE GUIDELINES FOR LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES

The lithium-ion battery included with your shaver does not develop a “memory effect” like a nickel-metal hydride (NiMH), or nickel cadmium (NiCd) battery. You can return the shaver to the charger at any time for a full charge, or even use the battery before a charge cycle is complete. Like most rechargeable batteries, lithium-ion batteries perform best when used frequently.
For maximum battery life, store the shaver in a partially discharged condition if it will not be used for several months. To discharge the battery, run the shaver until it automatically shuts off.
Avoid locating the shaver near heat vents, radiators, or in direct sunlight. Optimum charging will result where the temperature is stable. Sudden increases in temperature can result in the battery receiving less than a full charge.
Many factors influence lithium-ion battery life. A battery that has received heavy use or is more than a year old may not give the same run-time performance as a new battery pack.
New lithium-ion batteries, unused for a period of time, may not accept a full charge. This is normal and does not indicate a problem with the battery or charger. The battery will accept a full charge after several cycles of shaver use and recharging.
Disconnect the charger or the shaver from the AC outlet if extended periods of non-use are anticipated.
