Inserting Batteries into
the PG-165
The PG-165 requires 2 AAA batteries.
■ Turn the groomer off.
■ Twist the battery cap so the open
arrow aligns with the open circle,
and pull it off.
■ Insert batteries
side by side, as
shown, making
sure the (+) and
(-) markings on
the batteries
match those

because the
groomer will not
operate if batteries are inserted
incorrectly.

Battery Cautions
■ Batteries should not be left in the
unit if the unit is not in use for
long periods.
■ To prevent battery corrosion, the
unit should be kept in a dry environment.
■ Dead batteries should be removed
immediately and disposed of
properly.
■ Do not use recharged batteries
with this appliance. The lower
voltage in recharged batteries
impairs the performance of the
cutting unit.

arrow aligns with
the solid circle.
■ To remove: Turn
the attachment so
the open arrow

open circle, and
pull it off.

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
descirbed 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, follow-
ing 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 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 head +
comb attachment
■ Turn the groomer on.
■ Hold the groomer with the trim-
mer 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 your 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 the 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 your rotate.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Clean your Groomer Regularly
Clean your groomer regularly to ensure your unit’s operating life is not prematurely shortened.
Cleaning attachments with water
■ Remove attachments.
■ Rinse attachments
under warm
running water. DO
NOT use hot water,

damage to
components.

dryer on a cool or
medium heat setting

desired.
! Do not use harsh or corrosive cleaners on the unit or its cutters.
! Do not apply pressure or hard objects to cutters.
Cleaning with brush
Thoroughly brush and blow out hair clippings from cutter, bottom of attachments,
and top of power handle.
PG-165 Lubricating blades
Lubricate your PG-165’s grooming and nose/ear attachments once a month to
ensure optimum performance.
■ Apply 1-2 drops of blade oil to the attachments’ cutter blades.
■ Spread it lightly over the cutters with your fingertip.

groomer will not function if the batteries are positioned incorrectly. Open the battery compartment as instructed previous in this manual, and see if the batteries
need to be turned around.
