■ Use only when the appliance is in dry condition.
■ Detach the appliance from the power supply cord before cleaning.
■ Do not submerge the appliance in water.

sink. Do not place in or drop into water or other liquid.

immediately after using.

this might cause damage.
CLEANING ATTACHMENTS WITH BRUSH
■ After first removing attachment, thoroughly brush and blow out hair clippings

■ Rinsing attachments under water (above) requires lubricating the cutting blades

Blades. Blade set will separate from body, allowing cleaning as necessary.
Replace blade set and place 1-2 drops of Oil provided. Spread with fingertip and
wipe away all excess oil.

slow down speed of cutting blades.

too will evaporate.
