WARNING

1. This appliance can be used by children aged from 14 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction, by a person responsible for their safety, concerning the use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
2. Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use attachments not recommended by the manufacturer.
3. Do not use this appliance with a damaged or broken comb or with teeth missing from the blades, as injury may occur.
4. When discarding an old battery, do not throw it into the fire where heat could cause it to rupture or explode. Also, do not attempt to recharge alkaline, heavy-duty, or lithium batteries in a battery charger. Dispose of batteries properly.

BATTERY INSTALLATION/REPLACEMENT

1. Holding the trimmer with the cutting head facing you place your thumb on the arrow molded into the battery compartment cover, press lightly and slide the cover downward to remove it.
2. Insert one AA battery, positive end first (toward the cutting head).
3. Replace the battery compartment cover.
4. To maximize battery life, turn the trimmer “OFF” immediately after each use.
5. Replace the battery as soon as you notice the trimmer running slower than normal, to avoid pulling of hairs.

Installation of Trimming Heads

1. Make sure trimmer is turned “OFF”.
2. Turn trimmer head counterclockwise 1/4 turn and lift off.
3. Place trimmer head on trimmer and turn trimmer head clockwise 1/4 turn to lock on.

Before Trimming: Remove the protective cap and turn the Fig. A trimmer “ON” by pushing the switch up.

Trimming Bikini Area: For detailing the bikini area, slowly move the detailing attachment on the outside of the bikini area to trim and shape until desired look is accomplished.

Trimming Eyebrows: All three attachments can be used. For reciprocating or rotary head, slowly move head closer or Fig. B farther away from eyebrows to achieve desired length. trimming with an eyebrow attachment comb, place eyebrow attachment comb over it (See Fig. A). The attachment comb allows you to trim and shape eyebrows. Trim by following in the direction of hair growth.

NOTE
Only use on eyebrows. Be cautious around the eye area. Dots molded on the detailing head attachment and on the eyebrow attachment may not always line up straight with dots. The eyebrow attachment comb has two settings; approximately 2mm (S) and 4mm (L) (See Fig. B). The settings will create very short lengths to create a thin brow.

1. Choose the desired length. The shortest is nearest to the comb and the longest is the furthest. Note: Be advised that you must align the dots for the settings with the dot on the detailing trimmer head. The first time using the eyebrow attachment comb, it is better to start with the longest setting to see what length works best.
2. Slide the track of the blade into the chosen slot on the eyebrow attachment comb by following the direction of the arrow. The eyebrow attachment comb should slide in easily, otherwise it may be misaligned.
3. Slide the eyebrow attachment comb until you feel it fasten. The entire length of the blade should be covered.
   Trimming Hair From Nose: Make sure the nasal passages are clean. Slowly move rotary head in and out of each nostril, no more than 1/4-inch deep. Keep the side of the cutting head firmly against the skin to prevent a tickling sensation. (The reciprocating or detailing head may also be used.)

Trimming Hair From Ears
Make sure the outer areas of the ears do not contain any wax. Hold the ear flat with one hand and carefully insert rotary head no more than 1/4-inch into the outer ear.

CAUTION
Do not insert the rotary head or any other foreign object into the inner ear. For hair growing on the outside of the ear, simply move the rotary head slowly along the edges of the ear (either cutting head may be used to trim hair from ears). Sideburns and Mustache: For detailing sideburns and mustache, use detailing head across desired areas. For trimming sideburns slowly move recipricating head across desired area.

Cleaning Your Trimmer:
Periodically after use, turn the trimmer “OFF” and rinse both cutting heads under warm, running water. For more thorough cleaning, remove the attached cutting head by turning it slightly counterclockwise. Then rinse the entire head under running water. After cleaning, replace desired cutting head by turning slightly clockwise and wipe the entire trimmer dry with a soft cloth. Always replace the protective cap before storing.

NOTE
Press the release button downwards (See Fig. C) to remove the top plastic housing and brush it out thoroughly.
