Our story
It's your body, so style and shave it the way you
want. This tool is designed to get into all the
places you choose to smooth, without nicks or
irritation. Designed to work in the shower, so
soap up, shave away and then check out just how
smooth you really are.
Battery Removal/Disposal
w Allow groomer to run until battery is empty/
depleted before removing battery. Turn
groomer off.
w Dispose of battery properly. Do not
incinerate. Battery may explode if overheated.
Do not wrap in metal or aluminum foil. Wrap
in newspaper before discarding.
w It is suggested that you contact your local
town or city officials or call 1-800-8-BATTERY
or www.rbrc.com to determine proper
battery drop-off locations.
Shaving
Cleaning: After each use
w When shaving sensitive areas for the first
time, you may feel some discomfort, irritation
or reddening. This is normal as your skin
needs time to adjust to shaving.
w Make sure the shaving head is always in
full contact with your skin. Do not press
too hard. Pressing too hard may cause skin
irritation.
TIP: For wet shaving, prep skin with lathered soap
or shaving foam. For dry shaving, make sure skin is
clean and dry. Stretching your skin can help prevent
skin irritation.
NOTE: Do not use a towel or cloth to
dry shaving foil or cutters. Allow to air dry
thoroughly.

Trimming
w Use this groomer for its intended household
use as described in this manual.
w If you are trimming for the first time, be
careful. Do not move groomer too fast.
Make smooth and gentle movements.
w To trim the most effective way, move groomer
against the direction of hair growth. Make
sure the surface of the comb always stays in
contact with skin.
w If cut hairs accumulate in the comb, turn
trimmer off, remove comb and blow and/or
shake hair out of the comb.
TIP: Trimming is easiest and more effective when
skin and hair are dry. Try different trimming
positions (i.e. upwards, downwards or across) since
all hairs do not grow in the same direction. Practice
is best for optimum results.
