Using the appliance Your appliance comes with 2 blades. Use one blade for your face only and the other blade for your body. The face blade and the stubble combs are for use on facial hair. It is not intended for shaving, edging or trimming hairs on lower body parts or scalp hair. The body blade and body comb are for use on body parts below the neck. The body blade with the skin guard attached are for use on sensitive body areas.

Shave for a smooth result, trim with the stubble comb to obtain a certain length and edge to create perfect edges and sharp lines. - Use the appliance with the body blade to trim and/or shave your body hair. Shave your chest without the skin guard or body comb for a smooth result, shave your sensitive areas (e.g. groin, armpits) with the skin guard, use the body comb to trim your body. - Take your time when you first start to use the appliance. You have to acquire practice with the appliance. Switching the appliance on and off 1 To switch on the appliance, press the on/off button once (Fig. 7). 2 To switch off the appliance, press the on/off button once. Face Shaving Warning: Before you use the appliance, always check the blade for damage or wear. If the blade is damaged or worn, do not use the appliance, as injury may occur. Replace a damaged blade before you use the appliance (see chapter ‘Replacement’). Shaving tips and tricks - Make sure that the blade is in full contact with the skin by placing it flat on the skin. - For the best result, move the appliance against the grain. - Make long strokes while pressing lightly. - You can use the appliance dry or wet with gel or foam. You can even use the appliance in the shower. - Shaving a clean beard and face gives the best results. Shaving Before you use the appliance, always check the blade for damage or wear. If the blade is damaged or worn, do not use the appliance, as injury may occur. Replace a damaged blade before you use the appliance. 1 Switch on the appliance. 2 Place the blade on the skin and move the appliance up or against the grain in long strokes while you press it lightly (Fig. 8). Note: Make sure you hold the surface of the blade flat against your skin (Fig. 9). 3 Switch off and clean the appliance after every use (see 'Cleaning and maintenance'). Edging - You can also use both edges of the blade to create sharp lines and perfect edges. - Hold the appliance in such a way that the blade is perpendicular to the skin and one of its edges touches the skin. This allows more precise detailing of sideburns and the area around the mouth and nose. 1 Switch on the appliance. 2 Place the edge of the blade perpendicular onto the skin (Fig. 11). Note: To use the blade for creating sharp edges and lines, use either edge of the blade (Fig. 10). 3 Make straight strokes while applying gentle pressure (Fig. 12). 4 Switch off and clean the appliance after every use (see 'Cleaning and maintenance'). Trimming with comb tips and tricks The click-on stubble combs allow you to trim hair to different lengths. This appliance comes with 4 click-on stubble combs: 5mm (3/16in.), 3mm (1/8in.), 2mm (5/64in.) and 1mm (3/64in.). Start with the 5mm comb to acquire practice with this appliance. The indication on each comb corresponds to the hair length in millimeters. - Always make sure that the tips of the click-on stubble comb point in the direction in which you move the appliance.

Make sure that the flat part of the comb is

always in full contact with the skin to obtain an even trimming result (Fig. 13). - Since hair grows in different directions, you need to move the appliance in different directions as well (upward, downward or across). - Trimming is easier when the skin and hair are dry. Trimming with comb 1 Place the comb onto the blade, with the teeth of the comb pointing upwards (Fig. 14). Note: Always trim in the direction of the teeth of the comb. This will give you the best results. 2 Switch on the appliance. 3 Place the comb onto the skin and move the appliance in the direction of the teeth of the comb (Fig. 15). Note: For the best result, move it against the grain. 4 Switch off and clean the appliance after every use (see 'Cleaning and maintenance'). 5 To remove the comb, hold it on both sides and pull it off the blade (Fig. 16). Body - For hygienic reasons, only use the body blade for trimming and shaving your body. - For body trimming and shaving, make sure hair is clean and dry as wet hair tends to stick to the body and, when shaving sensitive areas, always use the skin guard. - 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. - For the best result, move the appliance against the grain. - Make long strokes while pressing lightly. - Use the appliance dry or wet with gel or foam, even in the shower. - Shaving a clean body gives the best results. Shaving with skin guard For optimal performance, use the skin guard only on sensitive areas (for example the groin and armpits). 1 Hold the skin guard on both sides and press onto the blade (Fig. 17). 2 Switch on (Fig. 7) the appliance. 3 Place the skin guard onto the skin and stretch the skin with your free hand. Move the appliance upwards slowly, against the grain (Fig. 18). - When using the appliance on your armpits, raise your arm and put your hand on the back of your head to stretch the skin. - Regularly remove cut hair from the guard. If a lot of hair has accumulated in the guard, remove it from the appliance and blow and/or shake out the hairs. 4 Switch off and clean the appliance after every use (see ‘Cleaning and maintenance’). 5 To remove the skin guard, put one finger under the edge of the guard and press on the blade with your thumb (Fig. 19). Shaving without skin guard The body blade without the skin guard allows you to shave hair on your body below the neckline (for example the chest) with a smooth result. 1 To remove the skin guard, put one finger under the edge of the guard and press with your thumb on the blade (Fig. 19). 2 Switch the appliance on (Fig. 7). 3 Place the blade on the skin and move the appliance against the grain in long strokes while pressing lightly. Stretch the skin with your free hand. Note: Make sure you hold the surface of the blade flat against your skin (Fig. 9). - When you use the appliance on your armpits, raise your arm and put your hand on the back of your head to stretch the skin. 4 Switch off and clean the appliance after every use. Trimming with body comb The 3mm (1.8in.) body comb allows you to trim hair on your body below the neckline (for example chest, armpits, groin). 1 Hold the body comb on both sides and press onto the blade (Fig. 20). 2 Switch the appliance on (Fig. 7). 3 Place the comb onto the skin and stretch the skin with your free hand. Move the appliance upwards slowly, against the grain (Fig. 21). - Make sure that the flat part of the comb is always in full contact with the skin to obtain an even trimming result (Fig. 13). - When you use the appliance on your armpits, raise your arm and put your hand on the back of your head to stretch the skin. - Regularly remove cut hair from the guard. If a lot of hair has accumulated in the guard, remove it from the appliance and blow and/or shake out the hairs. 4 Switch off and clean the appliance after each use. 5 To remove the comb, hold it on both sides and pull it off the blade (Fig. 16). Cleaning and maintenance Clean the appliance after every use. Never use compressed air, scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents or aggressive liquids such as petrol or acetone to clean the appliance. Do not tap the appliance against a surface to remove water from it, as this may cause damage. Replace the blade if it is damaged. Never dry the blade with a towel or tissue, as this may cause damage. Cleaning the appliance 1 Remove the comb from the blade (Fig. 16). Always turn the appliance off before putting on or taking off combs.

Blow off any hairs that have accumulated on

the blade and/or combs. 3 Switch on the appliance and rinse the blade with lukewarm water (Fig. 22). Caution: Do not dry the blade with a towel or a tissue as this may cause damage. 4 Rinse the combs with lukewarm water. 5 Carefully shake off excess water and let all parts air dry completely. Note: The blade is fragile. Handle it carefully. Replace the blade if it is damaged. Storage Attach the body comb on the body blade to protect the blade from damage. Always attach the protection cap on the blade to protect the blade from damage during travelling or storage. We advise you to let the appliance and its attachments are completely dry before you store them for the next use. 1 Place the protection cap onto the edge of the blade (Fig. 23). 2 Close the protection cap (Fig. 24). Replacement Usage indicator For optimal cutting and gliding performance, we advise you to replace the blade every 4 months, when it no longer provides the shaving or trimming results you expect. The blade is equipped with an usage indicator. A green bar will gradually appear on the blade as you use it (Fig. 25). When it is highly visible, it is recommended to replace your blade for the best OneBlade experience. Always replace the blade with original Philips blade. Depending on your usage behavior, the exact lifetime of the blade could be longer or shorter. Similar to a manual blade, the blade becomes blunt over time, which results in increased hair pulling and reduced cutting performance. Replacing the blade 1 Switch off the appliance. 2 Push the blade release slide upwards carefully, and hold the blade on its sides to remove the blade and prevent it from flying away (Fig. 26). 3 Hold the new blade on its sides and press it onto the handle (‘click’) (Fig. 27). Note: Be careful, the edges of the blade are sharp. When you hear a click the new blade is placed correctly and ready for use.
