D-Finer Precise Shaper with

Dual Defining Technology

Put it to the test. Like many new products,
your Norelco D-Finer Precise Shaper may take
a little getting used to. So take the time to get
acquainted with the two-step shaping and
finishing process. Use the narrow specialty Hi-
Definition Trimmer to shape your beard, even
in the smallest areas. Then follow-up with the
narrow shaving mini-foil to shave along the
edges and eliminate any stubble to create a
smooth and clean contoured beard line.

Use the D-Finer Precise Shaper in addition to
your beard trimmer and razor to create and
maintain the beard shape that defines your
personal style.The unique ergonomic design
makes it easy to see exactly what you’re doing
so you get precisely the look you want.

Before You  Begin

Preparing your beard for shaping

Follow these steps to prepare your beard.

Use a Norelco beard and
moustache trimmer to
trim your beard (Fig.3).

Use a Norelco razor to
shave larger areas of the
skin (Fig.4).

Shaping

Now you can shape and define your facial hair
style.

Use the D-Finer Precise Shaper on a clean, dry
face. Do not use any type of lotion or cream
before using.

Use the Precise Shaper only for its intended
household use as described in this manual.

Slide the specialty Hi-
Definition Trimmer  out
until you hear a “click”
and the Hi-Definition
Trimmer snaps into
position.You will see the
slide-out mark (Fig. 5).

The slide-out mark is hidden underneath the
specialty Hi-Definition Trimmer and only
becomes visible when the specialty Hi-
Definition Trimmer has been slid out correctly
and “clicks” into position.

Switch the D-Finer Precise Shaper ON.

Shape the contours of your beard and
sideburns with the specialty Hi-Definition
Trimmer.

To contour most

effectively, place the flat
surface of the specialty Hi-
Definition Trimmer  in
contact with the skin and
move it against the
direction of hair growth
(Fig. 6).

Make well-controlled movements. Touch
the hair lightly with the specialty Hi-
Definition Trimmer.

NOTE: Since all hairs do not grow in the same
direction, you may want to try different
contouring positions (i.e., upwards,
downwards, or across). Practice is best for
optimum results.

For additional styles and defining tips, visit our
website: www.norelco.com/d-finer.

When you have created your desired beard
contour, slide the specialty Hi-Definition
Trimmer back down to its original position.

Finishing

Finally, use the narrow
shaving mini-foil to shave
along the contour edges to
remove any stubble while
creating a smooth clean
beard line (Fig. 7).

Before using mini-foil, always check mini-foil
for wear or damage. If mini-foil shows signs of
wear or damage, do not use shaver as injury
may occur. Do not use until mini-foil has been
replaced.
