■ Replace the battery compartment ca p

and turn it so that the solid arrow aligns with the solid circle.

Usage Tips

Grooming

■ Hairs should be dry and free of lotions

when using your groomer.

■ Comb hairs outward so they are at their

maximum height and facing in the same direction.

■ Make sure the groomer does not have

damaged or broken cutter units, which could cause injury if used.

Beard

What to use: wide trimmer head +comb attachment

■ Attach the desired

hair length comb to the groomer head as described on the previous page.

■ Set the comb to the desired trim

length. It’s usually a good idea to use a longer setting until you are familiar with the groomer,to avoid trimming too much hair.

■ Turn the groomer on.

■ Start under your chin and, following

your jaw line, trim toward your ear and upper beard line using an upward motion.Allow the comb attachment to follow the contours of your face.

Thinning and tapering

What to use: wide trimmer

■

Turn the groomer on.

■ Use a small comb to

hold the beard hairs in place while trimming.

■ Holding the groomer with the cutting

unit facing away from you, move the groomer along the length of the comb.

Beard line

What to use: wide trimmer

■ Turn the groomer on.

■ Hold the groomer with the trimmer

cutting blades facing you.

■ Lightly touch the cutting blades to your

face and draw the groomer toward your beard line. For your neck, draw the groomer away from desired beard line.

Ear

Ear canal

What to use: nose/ear trimmer head

■ Turn the groomer on.

■ Gently insert

groomer’s cutting unit into the outer ear canal. For safe trimming, avoid inserting the groomer more than 1/4 inch into the ear canal.

■ Rotate the groomer in a circular motion,

gently moving it in and out as you rotate.

Outer ear

What to use: nose/ear trimmer head

■ Turn the groomer on.

■ Carefully guide the groomer around

surfaces of the ear where there are unwanted hairs.

Mustache

What to use: wide trimmer

■ Use a small

comb to straighten hairs for trimming.

■ Turn the groomer on.

■ Lightly touch the cutting blades to the

mustache.Too much pressure may trim more hair than desired.

■ Since all hairs do not grow in the same

direction, you may want to try trimming upwards, downwards, or across.

■ Practice will produce optimum results.

Nape of Neck

What to use: wide trimmer

■ Use a hand mirror if you are trimming

the nape of your neck yourself.A mirror is unnecessary if someone else is trimming it for you.

■ Lift the hair up off the

neck, and use your index finger to cover

the roots of any hair you DON’T want to trim.This will serve as a bumper to prevent accidentally trimming too much hair.

■ Turn the groomer on and hold it

base-side up, as shown.

■ Touch the cutting edges to your neck,

and move the groomer slowly up your neck until it touches the finger that’s covering the roots of your hair.

Nose

What to use: nose/ear trimmer head

■ Turn the groomer on.

■ Insert groomer’s cutting unit gently into

the nostril. For safe trimming, avoid inserting the groomer more than 1/4 inch into your nostril.

■ Rotate the groomer in

a circular motion around the opening of the nostril, gently moving it in and out as you rotate.
