INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
•
Select the desired trim length prior to trimming by attaching one of the comfort
combs.
•
If trimming longer hair, or if trimming for the first time, always start with the
longest length comb (4mm) and work your way down to shorter lengths until you
reach your desired style.
•
Always ensure the trimmer is switched off before attaching or removing a comb.
•
Switch the shaver on by pressing the on/off switch.
CHANGING THE ATTACHMENTS
•
To attach a comb, place it on top of the trimmer with the teeth of the comb over the
main trimmer. Slide the comb down until it clicks into place.
•
To remove the comb, pull the sides of the comb where it connects to the trimmer
out and lift the comb away from the trimmer.
Note: Using the detail trimmer with no comb attached will trim down to 0.2mm.
•
Using the main trimmer with no comb attached will trim hair to 1mm.
•
Holding the main trimmer upright on the skin will trim hair to 0.4mm.
BIKINI
•
Choose and attach the desired comfort comb.
•
Place the flat top of the trimmer comb against the skin.
•
Slowly slide the trimmer through the hair, against the direction of hair
growth. As hair grows in different directions, you may wish to change direction
where necessary.
•
The comb will trim the hair to the same length, whichever direction you trim.
CAUTION: Ensure that the trimmer blade is kept away from any sensitive areas.
TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
•
Use slow and even strokes and keep the skin nice and taut to ensure hairs are well
trimmed.
•
If hair builds up in the trimmer comb during the trimming process, switch the unit
off and remove the comb. Brush excess hair from the trimmer (dry use) or rinse the
comb under water (wet use).
CLOSE TO SKIN TRIMMING AND SHAPING THE BIKINI AREA
•
For close to skin trimming for the bikini area, remove the comb and use the detail
trimmer. This will trim hair down to 0.2mm.
•
To edge and shape the bikini area, remove the comb and use the main trimmer held
upright on the skin to create the desired shape.
•
This trimmer has been designed so that it can be used in the shower.
•
Please do not store the trimmer in an area that constantly gets wet.
•
Make sure you dry the trimmer after each use.
