for trimming body parts below
the neckline. Do not use to
trim facial or scalp hair.
◗ The symbol below indicates
that the groomer can be used
in the bath or shower.
◗ If the appliance is subjected to
a major change in temperature,
pressure or humidity, let the
appliance acclimatize for 30
minutes before using.
◗ Never use compressed air,
scouring pads, abrasive cleaning
agents or aggressive liquids such
as gasoline or acetone to clean
the appliance.
◗ When rinsing the appliance or
attachments, always be careful
with hot water. When rinsing
the groomer head, always check
to make sure the water is not

long.

your hairs
with the
trimming
comb and

appliance
against the
direction of

it should.

in the
trimming
head.
Clean the
appliance
(see ‘Cleaning’ section).

new battery.

is always in full contact with
the skin.
◗ Stretch the skin with your
free hand while moving the
groomer slowly with even
pressure against the direction
of hair growth.
◗ Turn the groomer off regularly
and remove the comb to blow
and/or rinse out hair that has
accumulated in the comb.
Tip: Trimming is easiest and more
effective when skin and hair are
dry. Try different trimming positions
(i.e. upwards, downwards or across)
since all hairs do not grow in the
same direction. Practice is best for
optimum results.
