When there is a sharp fall in the power of the cordless lawn trim-
mer, the battery needs to be charged. Do not wait until the blade
comes to an absolute stop.
If the charging socket flashes red during charging, a fault has
occurred (see 8. Troubleshooting).
5. Operating Your Cordless lawn trimmer
DANGER !
A
There is a risk of injury if the switching devices
installed on the Shears are removed or bridged
(e.g. by fastening the on switch to the handle).
This prevents the cordless lawn trimmer switching
off automatically.
V Never remove or bridge the switching devices.
The starting lockout prevents your GARDENA
cordless lawn trimmer from being switched on
unintentionally.
