Cleaning cautions
■
Avoid using harsh or corrosive cleaners.
■
Only the trimmer and shaver attachments
and the cutter assembly may be removed
from the trimmer for cleaning.
■
Do not take apart the trimmer blade.
■
Use a soft brush to clean away hairs. Do
not apply pressure or hard objects.
Storage
■
Always store this appliance in a moisture-
free area, in temperatures below 140°F
(60°C).
This appliance has no user serviceable parts.
Getting Started
■
It’s a good idea to begin trimming at one
of the longest settings (4 or 5) to avoid
accidentally trimming hair too short. As
you become familiar with the settings
you can then select your desired length
setting.
■
For best results, make sure hairs are clean
and lotion-free before trimming.
Trimming Hair Length
What to use: trimmer blade with trimmer
comb
1. Use the Thumb Wheel to set the trimmer
comb to the desired length setting.
2. Turn the unit on.
3. Place the flat top of the trimmer comb
against your skin.
4. Slowly slide the trimmer through the hair.
Repeat from different directions, as
necessary.
5. If hair builds up in the trimmer comb
during the trimmer process, shut the unit
off, pull off the adjustable trimmer comb,
and simply brush or blow the hair off.
Shaping and Edging
What to use: trimmer blade without trimmer
comb
Without the comb, the trimmer is perfect for
shaping and defining the hairline.
1. Remove the adjustable trimmer comb
to expose the trimmer blade.
2. Turn the unit on.

Cleaning & Maintenance
3. Place the cutters lightly against your skin
outside the hairline, and slowly sweep the
trimmer along the skin toward the desired
trim line. Use slow, light
pressure. Too much
pressure may trim off
more hair than desired.
You may find it helpful
to hold the skin taut
while you trim
4. After trimming, go over the surrounding
areas with the shaver attachment to remove
any remaining short hairs.
Shaving
What to use: shaver attachment
For precision or touch-up shaving around the
bikini area, underarms, ankles, or elsewhere,
use the shaver attachment.
1. Remove the trimmer comb AND trimmer
blade and replace them with the shaver
attachment.
2. Turn the unit on.
3. Run the shaver lightly over the area to be
shaved. Avoid pressing the shaving head very
hard against the skin; this could damage the
foil and irritate your skin.
!
Never use trimmer or shaver with damaged
or broken cutter units.
Blades won’t move even though the
trimmer’s on?
■
The trimmers may be dirty and clogged.
Clean and the unit as described on the
next page.
■
Make sure the batteries are correctly
installed and have not been depleted.
