Troubleshooting
Device does not turn on.
Ensure the battery is sufficiently charged. Connect the charger and allow it to charge for at least 15 minutes before attempting to turn it on. Check that the power outlet is working.
Poor cutting performance or pulling sensation.
Clean the shaver head and cutting element thoroughly under running water to remove any hair debris. Ensure the comb attachment is securely fitted. Do not press too hard against the skin; let the device do the work.
Skin irritation after use.
Ensure you are using the correct comb length for your desired trim. For shaving, make sure the skin is taut and you are moving in the direction of hair growth. Rinse skin thoroughly after grooming. If irritation persists, try shaving in the shower with shaving gel.

Verify that the charger is properly connected to the groomer and the power outlet. Try a different power outlet. Ensure the charging contacts on the groomer and charger are clean and free of debris.
Water leaks into the device.
This device is designed for wet & dry use and is showerproof, but it is not meant to be submerged for extended periods. Ensure the charging port cover is securely closed when not charging. If leaks persist after normal use, contact customer support.
