INSTRUCTIONS
TROUBLESHOOTING
There are several things to look for if your trimmer
fails to operate:
1. Be sure the trimmer is turned ON.
2. Check if trimmer head is properly placed and
aligned.
3. Check the blades to see if they are clogged
with hair clippings; if so, use the cleaning
brush to remove hair.
4. If the trimmer still fails to operate, take or send
it to a Conair Service Centre (see warranty
procedure and addresses).
FOR HOUSEHOLD
USE ONLY
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
1. To use your trimmer, push ON/OFF switch
upwards to “ON” position.
2. After you finish using your trimmer, push down
on the ON/OFF switch to turn the trimmer off.
ON/OFF SWITCH
To operate, simply push slide toward blade; to
stop, push slide away from blade.
*R
equires 2 AAA batteries (not included). We recommend
using alkaline batteries in your trimmer because they
last longer. Do not mix old and new batteries. Do not mix
alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc), or rechargeable (nickel-
cadmium) batteries.
Bring the batteries with the handle of the trimmer
to the nearest collection centre for proper
disposal. DO NOT throw the batteries into the normal
municipal waste system.
TYPES OF BEARDS/MUSTACHES
GROWING A BEARD OR MUSTACHE
There are three key factors that determine which
beard or mustache style is most suitable for your
face:
1. The shape and dimensions of your face.
2. The natural growth of your beard/mustache.
3. The thickness of your beard/mustache.
If you are unsure of the type of beard or mustache
that most suits your face, speak with a professional
hair stylist and ask for an opinion on what style
would be best. Once your beard or mustache has
been styled, it is essential that you maintain its
appearance. To do this, use your shaper to trim your
beard/mustache weekly.
For the best trimming results, your beard should be
slightly damp (not wet) before using the trimmer.
This will prevent the trimmer from removing more
hair than desired.
CAUTION
The outer foil and inner blades of the shaver are
delicate and must be handled very carefully.
GETTING STARTED
TO SWITCH TRIMMER HEADS
Hold the trimmer handle with the back of the
trimmer facing you.
Removing head: Press the release button and then
pull up (Fig. 1).
Attaching head: Position on top of the trimmer
handle, align the triangle on the trimmer head with
the circle on the side of the handle and push down
(Fig. 2).
OUTLINING YOUR BEARD
1. It is always best to begin with a clean, slightly
damp beard.
2. After you have combed through your beard in
the direction it grows naturally, you will want
to outline the desired shape, beginning under
your jawline.
3. Attach the beard trimmer head. Begin defining
your beard’s shape under your chin and work
upward on each side of your face toward your
ears. Then define the upper outline of your beard
across your cheeks, past your sideburns and
toward your hairline.
NOW YOU’RE READY
TO TRIM YOUR BEARD
1. To use the 5-position comb, slide it over the
trimmer blades and snap down into position.
(There is an indentation on the back of the
trimmer head. Make sure foot of the attach-
ment comb is snapped into that opening. If it
isn’t, then the comb will move). At first, until you
become familiar with the adjustments, use the
longest comb and trim setting. (You can always
go back and make your beard a little shorter.)
2. Begin trimming your beard using smooth, even
strokes. Start with your sideburns and work down-
ward toward your chin. (Never attempt to trim
against the natural growth of your beard, because
the hair will be cut too short.)
3. If you decide you want a closer trim, you can
now adjust the 5-position comb to a shorter
setting and go over your beard again until you
achieve the desired length.
BLENDING THE JAWLINE
1. The three jawline attachments will help you
to achieve a
neat, finished
trim under
your chin. To
use one of the
attachments, press it down over the trimmer
blades until it clicks into position.
2. Hold the trimmer in an upright position and
begin trimming under your jawline, using short,
even strokes.
3. After your beard is blended, turn off the
trimmer and remove the attachment by gently
pulling up on tab.
TO TRIM YOUR MUSTACHE
1. For best results, start with a clean, slightly damp
mustache.
2. Comb through your mustache in the direction
it grows.
3. Place the 5-position comb over the trimmer
blades and snap it into position. It is a good
idea to start with the longest trim setting
adjustment. (You can always go back and cut
your mustache more closely with a shorter
setting.)

Si l’on n’est pas certain du type de barbe ou de
moustache qui convient le mieux, consulter un coif -
feur pour obtenir son opinion. Une fois la barbe ou
la moustache stylisée, il est essentiel d’en maintenir
l’apparence. P our ce faire, utiliser la tondeuse à
barbe/moustache chaque semaine.
Afin d’obtenir de meilleurs résultats, la barbe devrait
