use as described in this manual.
Make sure that the Groomer is fully charged
before you start trimming.
Make sure hair is clean and dry as wet hair
tends to stick to the body.
Take your time and do not move the Groomer
too fast. Make smooth and gentle movements.

Body Trimming with Body Comb
Always use the body comb when trimming
sensitive areas.
1 Put the trimmer on the Groomer handle
(1) and turn clockwise (2) (fig. 2).
2 Slide the body comb into the guiding grooves
on both sides of the handle (fig. 3).
3 Press the Hair Length Setting Selector (1)
and slide the comb to the desired setting (2)
(fig. 4).
The body comb cuts hair to a length of 1/8 15/32in / 3-12mm.
4 The setting selected is shown on the back
of the Groomer.
A 5-minute charge will give you approximately
5 minutes of cordless grooming time.
If you are trimming for the first time, start
by using the comb at the maximum trimming
length setting (15/32in / 12mm) to prevent
accidentally trimming hairs too short. As you
become familiar with the settings, adjust Hair
Length Setting Selector to desired trimming
length. Selector will ‘click’ into position at each
setting.
5 Turn the Groomer ON (fig. 5).
6 To trim in the most effective way, move the
Groomer slowly against the direction of hair
growth (fig. 6). Make sure the surface of the
comb always stays in contact with the skin.
NOTE: 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.
If a lot of hair has accumulated in the comb,
remove the comb and blow and/or shake the
hair out of the comb.
REMEMBER: You must reset the hair length
setting selector back to your desired setting
every time you replace the comb on the
appliance.
The length setting is equal to the hair length
that will remain after trimming.
7 Turn off Groomer (fig. 5). Rinse the comb
clean after each use.
Body Shaving with Bodygroom
Shaver
Do not use this Groomer to shave facial or
scalp hair. The Groomer should only be used
on skin below the neckline.
When shaving sensitive areas, you may feel
some discomfort, irritation or reddening of the
skin. This is normal as your skin needs time to
adjust to shaving.
If your hair is longer than 13/32in / 10mm,
trim hair with the body comb first for optimum
shaving results.
For dry use, be certain your skin is clean and
dry before using the Groomer.
For wet use, you may prepare your skin with
lathered soap or shaving foam before using the
Groomer.
Do not use the shaver if foil or cutters are
damaged or broken as injury may occur.
Make sure the shaving foil is in complete
contact with your skin for the closest shave
and minimum foil wear.
Pressing too hard may cause skin irritation.
Practice is best for optimum results.
1 Put the Bodygroom Shaver on the Groomer
handle (1) and turn clockwise (2) (fig. 7).
2 Turn the Groomer ON (fig. 5).
3 Stretch your skin taut with your free hand
and gently press Groomer to skin and move
it slowly and smoothly, making sure the
shaving foil is in full contact with the skin
(fig. 8). Do not press too hard. Too much
pressure can distort the foil and cause skin
irritation.
TIP: Stretching your skin can help hairs stand upright
and minimize the chance of skin irritation.
4 Always move the Groomer against the
direction of hair growth (fig. 9).
5 Turn OFF Groomer (fig. 5). Clean the
body shaver after each use.
Hair Clipping
Make sure that the appliance is fully charged
before you start clipping hair.
Before you start clipping, make sure that the
head of the person whose hair you are cutting
is at the same level as your chest so that all
parts of his/her head are clearly visible and
within easy reach.
Make sure the hair is clean and dry.
Before you begin, comb the hair in the direction
of growth (fig. 10).
To achieve optimal clipping results, always move
the appliance slowly through the hair against
the direction of hair growth.
Clipping with hair comb
1 Put the trimmer on Groomer handle (1) and
turn clockwise (2) (fig. 2).
2 Slide the hair comb into the guiding grooves
on both sides of Groomer handle (fig. 11).
3 Press the Hair Length Setting Selector (1)
and slide the comb to the desired setting (2)
(fig. 12).
The hair comb cuts hair to a length of 1/8 in 25/32 in / 3-20mm.
4 The setting selected is shown on the back
of the Groomer.
When you are clipping for the first time,
start at the maximum clipping length setting
(25/32in/20mm) to familiarize yourself with the
appliance and prevent accidentally trimming
hairs too short. As you become familiar with the
settings, adjust the Hair Length Setting Selector
to desired trimming length. Selector will ‘click’ into
position at each setting.
5 Turn the Groomer ON (fig. 5).
6 Make sure that the flat part of the comb is
always in full contact with the scalp to obtain
an even result (fig. 13).
7 Move the appliance slowly over the crown
from different directions to achieve an even
result (fig. 14).
8 Always move the appliance against the
direction of hair growth. Press lightly.
9 Make overlapping passes over the head to
ensure that all hair that should be cut has
been cut.
10 Turn the Groomer off and remove the hair
comb often to blow and/or shake out hair
that has accumulated.
REMEMBER: You must reset the hair length
selector back to your desired setting every
time you replace the hair comb on the
appliance.
TIP: Write down the settings you have used to create
a certain hairstyle as a reminder for future clipping
sessions.
Contouring without the hair comb
Use the Groomer without a comb to clip hair
very close to the skin (3/64in./1mm) or to
contour the neckline and area around the ears.
1 Remove the hair comb by pressing the Hair
Length Setting Selector (1) and slide the
comb upwards (2). Pull comb off Groomer
(fig. 15).
Be careful when you are clipping without a comb
attachment as when the Clipper is turned on it
will remove every hair it touches.
2 To contour the hairline around the ears,
comb the hair ends over the ears.
3 Tilt the Groomer in such a way that only
one edge of the cutter blades touches the
hair ends when you shape the contours
around the ears (fig. 16).
Be careful not to trim too much. The hairline
should be close to the ear.
4 To contour the nape of the neck or
sideburns, turn the Groomer and make
downward strokes (fig. 17).
5 Move the Groomer slowly and smoothly
following the natural hairline.
Trimming your Beard & Moustache
with Beard Comb
1 Put the trimmer on Groomer handle (1) and
turn clockwise (2) (fig. 2).
2 Slide the beard comb into the guiding
grooves on both sides of the handle (fig. 18)
3 Press the Hair Length Setting Selector (1)
and slide the comb to the desired setting (2)
(fig. 19).
The beard comb cuts hair to a length of 3/6423/32in / 1-18mm.
If you are trimming for the first time, start
by using the comb at the maximum trimming
length setting (23/32in / 18mm) to prevent
accidentally trimming hairs too short. As you
become familiar with the settings, adjust Hair
Length Setting Selector to desired trimming
length. Selector will “click” into position at each
setting.
4 Turn the Groomer ON (fig. 5).
5 To trim in the most effective way, move the
Groomer against the direction of hair growth.
Make sure the surface of the comb always
stays in contact with the skin.
NOTE: 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.
If a lot of hair has accumulated in the comb,
remove the comb and blow and/or shake the
hair out of the comb.
