Intended use
• Before using an attachment, check that it has been installed
correctly. Failure to do so may cause beard to be cut too short.
• The appliance should not be used on animals.
• Before and after each use, apply oil at the marked places.
(See page 13.)
Failure to apply the oil may cause the following problems.
The trimmer has become blunt.
Shorter operating time.
Louder sound.
• Do not use thinner, benzine, alcohol or other chemicals. Doing
so may cause failure, cracking or discoloration of the main body.
Clean the main body only with a soft cloth slightly dampened
with tap water or soapy tap water.
• Store the trimmer in a place with low humidity after use. Failure
to do so may cause malfunction due to condensation or rust.

<To check if charging is completed>
If you remove and reinsert the appliance plug while charging,
the charge status lamp glows and turns off after
approximately 5 seconds.
Notes
• If there is crackling noise on radios or other devices while
charging, charge the trimmer using a different household outlet.
• When the appliance is not used for 6 months or more, the battery


been in use for more than 6 months, the lamp on the main body
may not glow for a few minutes, or the operating time may
shorten. Please charge it for more than 8 hours in such cases.
Recommended ambient temperature for charging is 0 °C – 35 °C.
The charging time may change or battery performance may
decrease outside of the recommended temperature.
• A full charge supplies enough power for approximately
50 minutes of use. (Based on dry using at 20 °C ‑ 30 °C.)
The operating time may differ depending on the frequency of
use, the operating method and the ambient temperature.
• You can charge the battery before it is completely discharged.
However, it is recommended to charge when the battery is
completely discharged. The battery life depends strongly on
factors such as how it is used and stored.
AC operation
If you connect the AC adaptor to the trimmer in the same way as
for charging, and turn on the power, you can use it.
• If the remaining battery is too low, the blades may move slowly
or stop, even with the AC operation. In this case, charge the
battery for 1 minute or more.
• The battery will be discharged, even with the AC operation.

English
Using the trimmer
• Check that the blades are not damaged or deformed before use.
Apply the oil to the blade before and after each use. (See page 13.)
• Use the appropriate attachment as needed.
(See pages 11 and 12.)
It can also be used without the attachment. (See this page.)

Trimming height comb attachment
• Make sure that the trimmer is turned off.
• Actual beard length will be a little longer than the height you set.
• The desired results may not be achieved if beard is too long.
In this case, trim the beard to a length of about 20 mm before
using the trimmer.
• For areas with thick or dense beard growth, trim a bit at a time.
Beard sometimes gets caught or builds up in the attachment.
When this happens, clean the attachment. (See page 13.)

Cleaning
• Clean the trimmer and the blade after each use.
(If not cleaned, the motion will become poor and the sharpness
will worsen.)
• Make sure that the trimmer is turned off.
• Remove the attachment and blade. (See pages 12 and 14.)
With water
• Do not wash the appliance with water.
Doing so may cause malfunction if put in water.
Blade and the attachment
1. Clean the blade and the
attachments with running water.
• Rinse with water and shake up and
down several times to remove the
water.
2. Wipe off the water with a towel and
let it dry naturally.
3. Apply the oil to the blade after
drying. (See this page.)
With the brush
1. Brush off any hair trimmings from the
main body and from around the blade.
2. Brush off the hair trimmings from the
blade edge.
3. Brush any hair trimmings out from
between the stationary blade and the
moving blade while pressing down the
cleaning lever (c) to raise the moving
