become too hot internally, fast charge will be discontinued. Remove the battery pack and replace
after a 5 minute cooling period, the charger will reset automatically.

6. It is normal for the charger to become warm to the touch during operation.

7. Disconnect the charger from the AC outlet if long periods of non-use are anticipated.

8. Never store batteries in a discharged condition. Recharge them immediately after they are discharged.

9. Many factors influence the life of the battery pack. A battery pack that has received heavy use

and is over a year old, may not give the same run-time performance as a new battery pack.

USE OF THE REFRESH FEATURE

The Refresh feature works overnight by first discharging the battery pack, and then quickly charging
it. A trickle charge maintains the battery at 100% for use the next day. This allows a battery pack
that has developed a “memory” to perform like new.

A battery pack that receives monthly Refresh cycles will last much longer than one that does
not.
Andis suggests that the Refresh feature be used once per month at the end of a business day.
Using the Refresh feature overnight will ensure that your work will not be interrupted while
“Refresh” operates (Diagram I).

1. The charger base needs to be plugged in for the Refresh feature

to work.

2. With the BGR+ clipper or BGR+ battery pack in the charger base,

press the Refresh button
once. The green light will blink while the battery is discharging.

3. The green light will stop blinking, and remain continuous when

the battery pack is charging once again (see Sensacharge light
sequences, page 3).

4. If the Refresh button has been accidentally pressed, there are two ways to stop the battery pack

from being discharged. Removing the clipper from the charger, then returning it, will cancel the
Refresh operation and resume fast charge. You may also unplug the charger base for several
seconds to reset the charger.

5. NOTE: The refresh cycle takes approximately eight hours to produce a fully charged battery pack.

The charge must make accurate battery voltage measurements during this time. If the charger
does not exit the refresh cycle or does not produce a fully charged battery, follow the steps on
page 6, number 2.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Please read the following instructions before using your new Andis Clipper. Give it the care that a
fine precision built instrument deserves and it will give you years of service.

REMOVING BLADE SET
To remove blade set, first make sure your clipper motor is switched “OFF”, then push down on
blade with one or both thumbs (Diagram J) and slide blade off blade
hinge. If your blade hinge should snap closed and is flush with the
clipper, use a small standard screwdriver to pry the tongue of the
hinge out (Diagram L).

NOTE: Hair may accumulate in the front cavity of the housing under
the blade. If this happens, you can clean out the hair by brushing out
the cavity with a small brush or an old toothbrush while the blade is
off the clipper (See Diagram M for location of cavity being referenced).
