How To Use

The groomer is a wet groomer, the hand-held part of which may be used in a bath or shower.

1. Trim hair to shortest length (no comb) with either the Detail or Vertical Trimmer.

2. Pull skin taut with your free hand to force the trimmed hairs to stand on end.

3. Use short, circular strokes with the Foil Shaver Attachment over desired area. For

best results, only apply light pressure on the shaving head while shaving.

4. Always position the shaver foil so the center of the foil is in contact with the skin.

5. Due to the varying direction body hair grows the Foil Shaver may require multiple

passes to remove all hair.

Cleaning, Care & Maintenance

Always clean Grooming System attachments regularly to ensure maximum performance and a proper operating life. The trimmer is washable so it can be used in the shower or rinsed under water during cleaning. Therefore, to maintain performance of cutters, oil after rinsing.

Cleaning Cautions

■ The handheld unit should be detached from the power supply cord before cleaning.

■ Only the attachments and combs may be removed for cleaning.

■ Cleaning should be done with a soft brush.

■ Only use a light-grade oil, such as sewing machine oil. These oils will not

evaporate or slow down the blades.

■ Do not use harsh or corrosive cleaners on the units or their cutters.

■ Do not apply pressure or hard objects to cutters.

■ Do not disassemble cutter assembly.

■ There are no user serviceable parts.

CLEANING TRIMMER ATTACHMENTs WITH BRUSH / WATER

■ Thoroughly brush and blow out hair clippings from cutter system, attachment, and handle.

■ Rinse the attachment under warm running water. Do NOT use extremely hot water, as this might cause damage to components.

CLEANING FOIL SHAVER

■ Do NOT oil foil shaver attachment as this is permanently lubricated.

■ Press release buttons inward at sides of screen head.

■ Remove head and shake out clippings. Blow off cutter assembly.

■ Replace head, snapping in place to secure.

OILING BLADES & CAUTIONS

■ Rinsing attachments under water (above) requires lubricating the cutting blades. Using only light-grade oils (e.g. sewing machine oil), simply spread 1-2 drops lightly over cutters with fingertip. Wipe away all excess.

■ Use only light-grade oils as these will not evaporate nor slow down speed of cutting blades.

■ Do not use hair oil, grease, or any oil mixed with kerosene nor solvent, as these too will evaporate.

Troubleshooting

Q: WHAT IF THE CUTTERS DON’T MOVE WHEN TURNED ON? A: The cutting unit may be dirty or clogged. Clean and lubricate the groomer as

described previously.

Q: WHAT IF THE GROOMER DOESN’T WORK AT ALL WHEN TURNED ON? A: The groomer might simply need charging. Follow instructions for charging as

described previously. Should charging prove unsuccessful, contact customer service at 1-800-736-4648 for assistance.

Q: WHAT IF THE GROOMER FAILS TO HOLD A CHARGE? A: Fully discharge the groomer by running until completely stopping. Next, follow

recharging instructions described previously. If time between recharging cycles fails to increase, the battery might require replacement. Contact customer service at 1-800-736-4648 for assistance.
