CHARGING YOUR APPLIANCE

This appliance can be used "cordless" by powering it from its internal rechargeable battery, or "corded" by connecting it to the charging adaptor and then the mains power supply.

Powering the appliance from the charging adaptor is useful if the rechargeable battery does not have enough charge. Be aware however, that frequent use of the cordless mode will reduce the life of the rechargeable battery.

Before using your trimmer for the first time, charge for 10 hours.

1. Ensure the product is switched off.
2. Connect the charging adaptor to the product and then to the mains.

- When charging, the charge indicator light will light up. The light will go out when charging is complete.

- Run time from fully charged is up to 60 minutes.

- Your trimmer cannot be overcharged. However, if it is not going to be used for an extended period of time (2-3 months), unplug it from the mains and store.

- To preserve the life of your batteries, let them run out every 6 months then recharge for 10 hours.

CORDED USE

• Connect the charging adaptor to the product and then to the mains.
• Switch the product on by pressing the on/off switch.

ATTACHMENTS

TO FIT AND REMOVE ATTACHMENTS (FIG. A)

Ensure that the device is switched off before fitting or removing attachments.

• To remove, rotate the attachment anti-clockwise until it unlocks and then lift it off.
- To fit, place the desired attachment on top of the device and rotate the attachment clockwise to lock it into place.

FITTING AND REMOVING FIXED GUIDE COMBS

To Fit

• Hook the front of the guide comb over the teeth of the wide trimmer.
• Press the back of the guide comb down until it clicks into place.

To Remove

- Lift the tab on the back of the guide comb upwards until it comes free from the wide trimmer head.

FITTING AND REMOVING THE ADJUSTABLE COMB

• To fit, line up the rails on the comb with the slots on the sides of the groomer and slide the comb downwards onto the groomer.
• To adjust, press and hold the adjustment button on the back of the comb and slide the comb up or down. Release the button to lock the comb at that position. The length of cut is indicated by the scale on the side of the trimmer.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

• Comb facial hair with a fine comb before you start trimming.
• Comb your hair in the direction that it grows so that the hairs are at their maximum height and facing in the same direction.
• After trimming, lightly go over the trimmed areas with the foil to get a smooth clean finish.
• Since all hairs do not grow in the same direction, you may want to try different trimming positions (i.e. upwards, downwards or across) for better results.
• Hair should be dry and free from any waxes or lotions.
• If hair builds up during use, switch the unit off, remove any attachment in use and clean any excess hair clippings from the attachment and groomer.

CONTOUR EDGING AND CLOSE HAIR CUTTING

Attachments

Wide trimmer

Contour edging:

1. Hold the device with the cutting blade (teeth) facing you and at 90 degrees to the skin.
2. Start with the edge of the beard/moustache line and, with the blade resting lightly against the skin, use slow controlled movements to create contoured lines.

Close hair cutting:

1. Use the fingers of one hand to lift the hair at the base of your head up off your neck.
2. Your index finger should be covering the roots of the hairs you are lifting to prevent them from being accidentally cut.
3. Hold the trimmer to the base of your neck with the blade facing up. Move the trimmer up the neck until it touches your index finger which is protecting the hair roots.
4. Move your trimmer slowly and keep the hair roots at the base of your head out of the way of the trimmer.

DETAILED NOSE, EYEBROW AND EAR HAIR TRIMMING

Attachments

Nose, ear and eyebrow trimmer

Nose and ear:

1. Fit the nose, ear and eyebrow trimmer.
2. Insert the attachment gently into the nostril or ear.
3. Gently move the attachment in and out while rotating the groomer at the same time.
4. Don't insert the attachment more than 6 mm into the nostril or ear.

Eyebrow:

1. Carefully guide the attachment to remove any stray or longer hairs from the eyebrow.
2. To completely remove hairs, let the attachment touch the skin then move over the desired area.

MICRO STUBBLE AND PRECISION TRIMMING

Attachments

Precision trimmer

Micro stubble:

The attachment has Trim Shave Technology which trims hair down to 0.2 mm to leave a micro stubble finish.

1. Fit the precision trimmer.
2. Hold the attachment so that the guide on the lower edge of the blade contacts the skin (in a the same way you as you would hold a wet razor). The guide on the lower edge of the blade helps to stretch the skin during trimming.
3. Use motions similar to wet shaving.

Precision trimming:

1. Hold the precision trimmer attachment perpendicular to the skin.
2. Move it towards or away from the beard hair to achieve the desired result. Use gentle pressure and controlled movements.

CLEAN SHAVEN EDGING

Attachments

Mini Foil Shaver

1. Hold the groomer so the mini foil shaver gently touches your face.
2. Use short, well-controlled movements to shave around your beard moustache. Use your free hand to stretch your skin. This encourages the hair to stand upright, making it easier to shave.
3. Note: The mini foil shaver was designed to shave the detail areas around your beard/moustache/sideburns. It was not designed to shave your entire face. For a close comfortable shave, guaranteed, use one of Remington's electric shavers.

Care for your product to ensure a long lasting performance. We recommend that you clean your groomer after each use.

AFTER EACH USE

• Brush any accumulated hairs from the groomer and attachment heads.
• The easiest and most hygienic way to clean the groomer is by detaching the head from the groomer body and rinsing the head with warm water.
  • The groomer body should not be rinsed.
• Place one or two drops of cutter oil or sewing machine oil on the blades.
• Turn the clipper on to distribute the oil evenly, wipe off any excess oil.

BATTERY REMOVAL

We strongly recommend that a professional removes the rechargeable battery. Parts of the shaver case, and tools have sharp edges and may cause injury if not handled correctly.
- The rechargeable battery must be removed from the appliance before it is scrapped.
- Disconnect the charging adapter before removing the battery.
1. Ensure that the battery is fully discharged. To do this, operate the shaver until it stops.
2. Unplug the trimmer.
3. Using a suitable tool, carefully pry apart the front and rear halves of the case at the joint line.
4. Cut the tabs holding the battery to the circuit board.

• Used batteries must be removed from the appliance and disposed of at an appropriate official recycling/collection point.
• Do not attempt to operate the shaver once you have opened it.

RECYCLING

To avoid environmental and health problems due to hazardous substances, appliances and rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries marked with one of these symbols must not be disposed of with unsorted municipal waste. Always dispose of electrical and electronic products and, where applicable, rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries, at an appropriate official recycling/collection point.
