Edging

 

-

Use both edges of the blade to create 
sharp lines and perfect edges. 

 

-

Hold the product in such a way that 
the blade is perpendicular to the skin 
and one of its edges touches the skin. 
This allows more precise detailing of 
sideburns and the area around the 
mouth and nose.

To create sharp edges and lines, you can 
use either edge of the blade (Fig. 6).

Switch the product on (Fig. 3).

Place the edge of the blade 
perpendicular onto the skin (Fig. 7). 

Make straight strokes while applying 
gentle pressure (Fig. 8).

Switch off and clean the product after 
each use (see ‘Cleaning‘).

Trimming with comb

The click-on stubble combs allow you to 
trim hair to different lengths. This product 
comes with 3 click-on stubble combs: 5mm 
(3/16in.), 3mm (1/8in.) and 1mm (3/64in.). 
Start with the 5mm comb to acquire practice 
with this product. The indication on each 
comb corresponds to the remaining hair 
length in millimeters.

 

-

Always make sure that the tips of the 
click-on stubble comb point in the 
direction in which you move the product.

 

-

Make sure that the flat part of the comb 
is always in full contact with the skin to 
obtain an even trimming result (Fig. 9).

 

-

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

 

-

Trimming is easier when the skin and hair 
are dry.

Place the comb onto the blade, with the 
teeth of the comb pointing upwards (Fig. 10).

Note: For best results, always trim in the 
direction of the teeth of the comb.

Switch the product on (Fig. 3).

Place the comb onto the skin and move 
the product upwards slowly, against the 
grain (Fig. 11).

Switch off and clean the product after 
each use (see ‘Cleaning‘).

To remove the comb, hold it on both 
sides and pull it off the blade (Fig. 12).

Cleaning

Clean the product after every use.

Never use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning 
agents or aggressive liquids such as 
gasoline or acetone to clean the product.

Do not tap the product or blade against a 
surface to remove hairs and water as this 
may cause damage to the product and 
blade (Fig. 13). If the blade is damaged, 
replace immediately.

Never dry the blade with a towel or tissue, 
as this may cause damage.

Cleaning the product

Switch the product off. 

Pull the comb off the blade (Fig. 12).

Blow off any hairs that have accumulated 
on the blade and/or combs (Fig. 14, Fig. 15).

Switch on the product for approx. 15 
seconds while rinsing the blade with 
lukewarm water (Fig. 16).

Rinse the combs for approx. 15 seconds 
with lukewarm water (Fig. 17).

Carefully shake off excess water and let 
all parts air dry completely.

Note: The blade is fragile. Handle it carefully. 
Replace the blade immediately if it is damaged.

This product has no other user-serviceable 
parts. For assistance call 1-800-243-3050.

Storage

Always attach the protective cap on the 
blade to protect the blade from damage 
during traveling or storage. 
Make sure the product and attachments are 
completely dry before you store them for 
the next use.

Place the protective cap onto the edge of 
the blade (Fig. 18).

Close the protective cap (Fig. 19).

 

-

Be sure the product is switched off. 
Remove cord from outlet and the 
product before storing it in a safe, dry 
location where it will not be crushed, 
banged, or subject to damage.

 

-

Do not wrap cord around the product 
when storing. 

 

-

Store cord in a safe location where it will 
not be cut or damaged.

 

-

Do not place or store the product where 
it can fall or be pulled into a tub or sink, 
water or other liquid while plugged in.

Replacement

Blade wear indicator 

For optimal cutting and gliding performance, 
replace the blade every 4 months or when it 
no longer provides the shaving or trimming 
results you expect.  This advice is based on 
two full shaves a week and actual results 
may vary.
The blade is equipped with a blade wear 
indicator. A green bar will gradually appear 
on the blade as you use it (Fig. 20). When it is 
highly visible, it is recommended to replace 
your blade for the best OneBlade experience. 
Always replace the blade with original Philips 
Norelco blade (see ‘Accessories‘). 
Depending on your usage behavior, the 
exact lifetime of the blade could be longer 
or shorter. Similar to a manual blade, the 
blade becomes blunt over time, which 
results in increased hair pulling and reduced 
cutting performance. 

Replacing the blade

Switch the product off.

Carefully push the blade release slide 
switch upwards while holding the blade 
on both sides (Fig. 21). This will prevent 
the blade from flying away.

Hold the new blade on both sides and 
press it onto the handle (‘click’) (Fig. 22).

Note:Be careful, the edges of the blade are 
sharp. When you hear a click, the new blade 
is placed correctly and ready for use.
