Hold power button down for 5 seconds to disengage travel lock.

The Wahl trimmer is designed to be water resistant and shower proof. This lets you use your Wahl trimmer in the shower or at the sink without worry and makes it easy to clean under running water.
NOTE: The trimmer is for wet/dry use. The trimmer will not run while the cord is attached for safety.
For best results use on damp or dry hair. Cutting hair while it is saturated with water is not good for the hair and is not recommended.
This symbol, located on the trimmer, represents that the shaver is suitable for use in the bath and shower.
For best results, use Wahl Clipper Oil on the blades only when necessary, or approximately once a month. Motor bearings are permanently lubricated—do not attempt to oil.
When oiling your trimmer, turn the trimmer "ON - I," hold the unit with the blades facing DOWN and squeeze three drops across the front of the blade and one drop on each side on the heel of the blade. Wipe off excess oil with soft cloth.
NOTICE—DO NOT OVER OIL!
Excessive oiling or application of liquids will cause damage if allowed to seep back into motor.
Trimmer blades have precision-hardened, ground and lapped cutting teeth. Blades should be handled carefully and never bumped or used to cut dirty or abrasive material. Clean with the included brush.
Before storing your trimmer, use the cleaning brush to whisk any loose hairs from the unit and the blades. For units with a soft-touch grip, use a damp cloth to wipe down the body of the trimmer. Store unit in such a manner so that blades are protected from damage.
When the trimmer is not in use, the trimmer blade guard attachment should be in place to protect the blades.
This appliance should be stored in a manner where it is not subjected to Crushing, Heating above 100°C (212°F), or Incineration.
Your trimmer has been designed with several advanced features to help you get perfect results every time you trim. Your trimmer may be used to neatly trim goatees, beards, mustaches, neckline, sideburns around the ears and eyebrows, or anywhere you may need grooming. It also makes a great all-around family trimmer for mini haircuts and touch ups between trips to the barber or to clean up the shape of the neck.
To remove attachment, simply pull top edge of blade away from body unit. To attach, align back tab of attachment head to cavity on the inner edge of trimmer unit and push down on top of blade.
Should blades become damaged or dull or if you want additional attachment heads for your trimmer, you may purchase them from Wahl. Be sure to ask for the following attachment with part number from our service and repair department (see contact information):
The trimmer you purchased may not have all of these heads, but they will all work with your trimmer if you wish to purchase them. You may order additional heads online at grooming.wahl.com.
To attach guide combs, hold comb with the teeth up. Snap guide comb attachment firmly to the bottom of the trimmer blade.
These attachments are ideal for blending, tapering and defining beards, as well as for achieving a "close trim" stubble look around the face. To use the attachments, go with the hair direction. To achieve closer looks, go against the hair direction.
The following are suggested trimming steps and trimmer positions. You may find different procedures work better for you.
Slowly move trimmer downward on desired areas to neatly trim and shape.
Simply glide the trimmer over your arm or leg until desired hair length is achieved. The first time you trim the hair, start by using a longer guide comb on the trimmer, then use progressively shorter settings if a shorter length is preferred.
Glide the trimmer over your torso region, in an upward motion until desired hair length is achieved. For tight, scratch-free trimming, use the #1 guide comb.
The trimmer cannot be overcharged, so you may charge it as often as desired. However, periodic recharging of the trimmer, rather than continuous recharging, will prolong battery life.
Charge when trimmer seems to lose power or run slower. The charging LED will pulse while charging. LED will stay lit when charging is complete.
If your Trimmer does not seem to take a charge, check the following before returning it for repair:
