How to Use
Charging/Recharging
To recharge, use only the charging
adapter provided.
■Turn the clipper off. Insert the adapter
plug into the bottom of the clipper, then
plug the adapter into an electric outlet.
The charging indicator will glow green,
indicating the unit is charging. A full
charge will take approx. 14-16 hours.
The low-battery indicator will glow red
when the clipper needs to be recharged.
■Your clippper cannot be overcharged. You
may leave it plugged in between uses.
However, if the clipper is not going to be
used for an extended period (2 weeks),
unplug the unit and recharge when
resuming use.
■Charge the clipper at temperatures
between 40-90˚F to avoid adversely
affecting battery life.
Blade Care
The life of your clippers will depend on
frequency of use, care, and hair type and
condition. The EZ TRIM’s blades are lubed
for life and do not require additional oil.
Blades should be replaced when cutting
efficiency has deteriorated. Contact a
Remington Service Center for a quotation.
Before Cutting Hair
1. Make sure your hair clipper is running
smoothly, with a slight vibration.
2. The person should be seated so that the
top of his head is at your eye level.
3. Comb the hair as it is normally styled.
4. Comb out all knots and tangles.
5. Ensure the hair is dry. Hair clippers per-
form best with dry hair, making it easier
to see how much hair is being cut.
6. Hold the hair
clipper in the
palm of one
hand with your
thumb resting
firmly on the
top of the hair
clipper. This grip
provides com-
fortable cutting
control.
Storage
■Always store this appliance and cord-
adapter in a moisture-free area. Do not
store it
in temperatures exceeding 140°F
(60°C).
■Do not wrap the cord around the
appliance.
This appliance has no user serviceable
parts. For any other servicing contact an
authorized Remington®Service Center.

Selecting Hair Length Setting
The EZ TRIM’s adjustable trimmer attach-
ment lets you change trim lengths simply
by rolling the clipper’s Zoom Wheel.
■Roll the Zoom
Wheel toward
the top of the
clipper to adjust
for longer
length, and
toward the
bottom of the
clipper for
shorter length.
The wheel will
click into one of
9 positions.
■Begin trimming
at one of the
longest settings (#8 or #9) to avoid
accidentally trimming hair too short. As
you become familiar with the settings,
you can then select your desired length
setting.
Trimmer Guard Attachment
NOTE: Trimmer guard must be attached to
the clipper in order to use the hair length
selector.
Remove trimmer guard attachment if you
are defining hairline edges such as sideburns,
trimming the nape of your neck, trimming
your beard line on front of neck, or if you
want to clean the cutter assembly.
To remove:
■Be sure the
clipper is in the
OFF position.
■While holding
clipper in one
hand and hold-
ing the Zoom
Wheel to pre-
vent it from
turning, gently
pull the trimmer
guard attach-
ment away
from the clip-
per. The guard can be removed and
replaced on any setting.
To replace:
■Be certain clipper is in OFF position.
■While holding the clipper in one hand,
and holding the Zoom Wheel to prevent
it from turning, slide the guard over
the top of the clipper until it clicks
into position.
NOTE: The trimmer guard attachment can
only be placed on the clipper one way; if it
does not fit properly, remove and reverse it.

3. To cut the hair
at the top of the
head, hold the
hair between
your fingers and
cut a small
amount at a
time. Cut from
the front to the
back.
4. To trim around
the ears and
short hairs at
the nape of the
neck you must
remove the
trimming guard.
Angle the clip-
per and lightly
stroke around
each ear to the
back of the neck. Be careful not to
touch the ears or to press too hard.
5. The final trim can be made with the hair
clipper or the included scissors. Make
sure to check over the entire head for
any uneven areas. For styled hair or
giving quick trims, you may prefer using
your hair clipper without the trimming
guide.
Usage Tips
Giving a Comfortable,
Even Cut
Allow the clipper to cut through the hair
without moving it too quickly. Moving the
clipper too quickly may create a pulling
sensation.
Use short strokes when cutting, and initially
use the longest setting. You can always use
a closer setting later if you want a closer cut.
How to Give a Haircut
1. Start at the back of the head. Holding the
clipper as shown, lightly stroke upward
making sure you are taking off the
desired amount
of hair. Work
your way up to
the crown of the
head in layers.
When complet-
ed, comb the
area to remove
any loose hair
and to deter-
mine whether
you need any further cutting.
2. Repeat the same procedure for each side
of the head. Make sure the length of the
hair is trimmed to the same length on
both sides of the head.

Very short styles
1. Using a shorter setting (#1 or #2), hold
the comb flat against the head and move
the hair clipper from the back of the
neck to the crown of the head.
2. Cut in a similar manner from the side to
the top of the head. Then cut from the
front to the crown of the head.
3. If a “Flat Top”
style is desired,
remove the
trimming guide
and use the
barber’s comb.
Trim a little at a
time until a flat
look is
achieved.
Trimming Beards & Mustaches
1. Comb your
beard in the
direction it
grows.
2. Determine the
length you want
the beard to
remain, and
choose the
corresponding
setting.
Remember the 1.5mm (#1) guide will
give you the shortest beard while the
14mm (#8) or 18mm (#9) will give you
the longest. If you want a longer beard
you can use the barber’s comb as a
trimming guide.
3. Start trimming under your chin and work
toward your ear and beard line. Cut in
different directions for a uniform trim.
4. Lightly stroke the edge of your mustache
in a downward movement.
