Put It To The Test
Like many new products, your Philips Norelco
Laser Guided Precision Beard Trimmer may take
a little getting used to. If you are using an electric
Trimmer for the first time, or if you’ve been
using a different brand, take the time to acquaint
yourself with your new Trimmer.
Your Trimmer features a unique laser guide which
projects a line on your face so you can pre-align
the Trimmer and create the exact look you want
every time.
Throw your scissors away and put your new
Trimmer to the test. We guarantee precise,
professional results or Philips Norelco will refund
you the full purchase price as long as the request
is received within 45 days of purchase.
Charging
Charge the Trimmer fully before you start using it
for the first time or after a long period of non-use.
Charge Indications
Low Battery
◗ When the battery is almost empty, the bottom
battery light blinks orange (fig. 3).
◗ When you turn off the Trimmer, the bottom
battery light continues to blink orange for a
few seconds.
◗ The bottom battery light will blink orange
more rapidly if the battery is empty and you
press the ON/OFF button, turn the Zoom
Wheel or activate the Laser Guide.
Charging
◗ When you start charging, the bottom battery
light blinks orange and white alternately (fig. 4).
◗ After approximately 3 minutes the bottom
battery light blinks white only. The battery now
has enough energy for one cordless trimming
session (fig. 5).
◗ As charging continues, more lights start blinking
showing the charge level of the battery.
◗ When the battery is fully charged, all battery
lights light up white (fig. 6).
To Charge/Recharge
w Charging, recharging, or using the Trimmer at
temperatures below 40˚F or higher than 95˚F
adversely affects lifespan of the battery.
w If the appliance is subjected to a major change
in temperature, pressure or humidity, let the
Trimmer acclimatize for 30 minutes before
using.
w Continuously recharging Trimmer will reduce
lifespan of battery.
1 Be certain Trimmer is OFF and Laser Guide
is in the 'OFF' position.
2 Insert the appliance plug directly into the
Trimmer (fig. 7) and plug the adaptor into any
120V AC outlet. Use only the cord provided.
w An adaptor plug may be necessary for
cord usage in some foreign countries. Use
an attachment plug adaptor of the proper
configuration for power outlet.
3 The Battery Lights will blink to indicate the
Trimmer is charging.
w It will take approximately 1 hour to fully
charge the Trimmer for a cordless trimming
time of up to 60 minutes.
NOTE: After the Trimmer is fully charged and still
connected to the outlet, the Battery Lights will
remain lit for 30 minutes and then turn off.
4 Disconnect the cord and unplug from
electrical outlet.
Optimize the working life of the battery
w After the Trimmer has been charged for
the first time, do not recharge the Trimmer
between trimming sessions. Continue using it
until the battery is completely empty.
w Do not charge for more than 24 hours.
w Do not keep cord permanently plugged in.
w Discharge/run down the battery completely
twice a year by letting the motor run until it
stops.
w If the Trimmer hasn’t been used for a long
period of time, it must be recharged for one
full hour.
5 Make well-controlled movements. Touch the
hair lightly with the Trimmer.
TIP: For a comfortable trim close to your skin, place
the flat side of the trimming head against your skin
and make strokes in the desired direction.
Trimming with the Laser Guide
w Use the Laser Guide to define edges of your
beard, sideburns and moustache, for example.
w The Laser Guide can be used with both sides
of the trimming head.
w Only turn the dual-sided trimming head when
the Laser Guide is popped down so as not to
damage the Laser Guide.
1 Remove any comb by pulling it off the
Trimmer (fig. 13).
Never pull at the flexible top of the comb. Always
pull at the sides.
NOTE: The Laser Guide can only be used when
trimming without a comb.
2 Press the ON/OFF button to turn Trimmer
ON (fig. 8).
3 Press the top of the Laser Guide to turn on
the laser (fig. 15).
The Laser Guide pops up and the light will shine
over the top of the trimming head.
NOTE: Make sure you push the Laser Guide down
before turning the Dual-Sided Trimmer to avoid
damaging the Laser Guide.
4 Define the edges of your beard using the
Laser Guide trimming line as a guide (fig.16).
TIP: Hold the Trimmer so that the laser light shines
exactly on the edge you want to trim and then place
the trimming head on your skin. After trimming, use
the Laser Guide to check if the contours of your
beard are symmetrical or straight.
5 Press the ON/OFF button to turn OFF
Trimmer(fig. 8).
The Laser Guide will switch off automatically after
3 minutes.
6 Push down the top of the Laser Guide to
lock into 'OFF' position (fig. 17).
Cleaning
w Clean the Trimmer after each use.
w Always switch Trimmer OFF, unplug and remove
power supply cord from Trimmer before
cleaning.
w Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, scourers,
compressed air or aggressive liquids such as
alcohol, gasoline or acetone to clean the
Trimmer and attachments.
w Never clean, replace or remove Trimmer
combs with motor ON.
w Do not apply pressure to cutters.
w Do not touch cutters with hard objects as this
may damage them.
w Use a soft, dry cloth to clean Trimmer handle.
During Use:
w If cut hairs have accumulated in a comb, turn
Trimmer off, pull the comb off Trimmer and
remove hairs by shaking and/or blowing or
using the cleaning brush provided.
After Each Use:
1 Make sure the Trimmer is switched OFF
and the Laser Guide is in the 'OFF' position.
Disconnect Trimmer from the electrical
outlet.
2 Remove any comb and rinse under warm
tap water (fig. 18) or clean with the supplied
brush.
3 Clean the trimming head under warm tap
water (fig. 19) or use the brush supplied.
4 Allow Trimmer to air dry thoroughly with
the Laser Guide popped out.
NOTE: The Trimmer does not need any lubrication
(oil).
Corded Trimming
w Trimmer does not recharge during corded
trimming.
1 Connect cord provided to Trimmer and plug
Trimmer into electrical outlet.
2 Press the ON/OFF button to begin trimming
(fig. 8).
3 Turn Trimmer OFF and unplug.
Cordless Trimming
1 Charge according to directions. Unplug
Trimmer from outlet and remove cord.
2 Press the ON/OFF button to begin trimming.
3 If the charge runs low while trimming, the
Battery Light will blink orange.
4 If the charge runs out while trimming, simply
connect cord provided to Trimmer and outlet
to continue trimming.
5 Turn Trimmer OFF and unplug.
Trimming
◗ Use this Trimmer for its intended household
use as described in this manual.
◗ Trimming is easier when skin and hair are dry.
◗ Always comb the beard and/or moustache with
a fine comb before you start trimming.
◗ If you are trimming for the first time, be
careful. Do not move the Trimmer too fast.
Make smooth and gentle movements.
Trimming with the Detail and Beard
Combs
◗ Use the Beard Comb to trim your beard
(fig. 9) or use the Detail Comb to trim hard-to-
reach areas, such as under your nose (fig. 10).
◗ A Comb must be on Trimmer to use the
Zoom Wheel.
1 Slide a comb into the guiding grooves on
both sides of the Trimmer. You will hear a
'click' (fig. 11).
The comb will not fit onto the Trimmer when the
Detail Trimmer is pointing towards the front of the
Trimmer. Turn the trimming head and then slide
the comb onto the appliance (fig. 14).
2 Turn the Zoom Wheel to the desired
trimming length setting. The setting selected
lights up on the display (fig. 12).
◗ You can select a length from 1/64 in/0.4mm to
9/32 in/7mm.
◗ If you are trimming for the first time, start by
using the comb at the maximum trimming
length setting (9/32 in/7mm) to prevent
accidentally trimming hairs too short. As you
become familiar with the settings, adjust Zoom
Wheel to desired trimming length. Zoom
Wheel will “click” into position at each setting.
3 Press the ON/OFF button to turn Trimmer
ON (fig. 8).
4 To trim in the most effective way, move the
Trimmer against the direction of hair growth.
Make sure the surface of the comb always
stays in contact with the skin.
NOTE: Since all hairs do not grow in the
same direction, you may want to try different
trimming positions (i.e., upwards,
downwards, or across). Practice is best for
optimum results.
5 If cut hairs have accumulated in the comb,
turn Trimmer off, remove the comb and
blow and/or shake the hair out of the comb.
The selected trimming length setting will
not change when you do this.
Trimming Without a Comb
Remove comb if you are:
w Defining hair lines
w Trimming nape of neck
w Removing single, unwanted hairs
1 Be certain Trimmer is in the OFF position.
2 Remove any comb by pulling it off the
Trimmer (fig. 13).
Never pull at the flexible top of the comb. Always
pull at the sides.
3 Turn the dual-sided trimming head to the
desired position (fig. 14).
– Use the Detail Trimmer (0.6 in./15mm) for
more precise styling and contouring.
4 Press the ON/OFF button to turn Trimmer
ON (fig. 8).
