Conair GMT170ACS Instructions For Care And Use
Operating
instructiOns fOr
YOur trimmer
1. Remove the battery compartment cover by
pushing in and down toward the bottom of the
trimmer.
2. Align the two AA batteries with the positive and
negative positions indicated inside the battery
compartment. Being careful not to bend the clips,
insert the negative end of each battery first so it
will slip easily into position.
3. Return the battery cover to its original position
by pushing it in and up until you hear a small
springs as it locks into place.
4. To use your trimmer, push ON/OFF switch
upwards to ON position.
5. After you finish using your trimmer, push
down on the ON/OFF switch to turn the trim-
mer off.
6. For your convenience, the trimmer comes
with a storage pouch to hold the trimmer and
accessories.
*R
equires 2 AA batteries (not included). We recommend using
alkaline batteries in your trimmer because they last longer.
grOwing a Beard
and mustache
There are three key factors that determine
which beard or mustache style is most
suitable for your face:
1. The shape and dimensions of your face.
2. The natural growth of your beard/mustache.
3. The thickness of your beard/mustache.
If you are unsure of the type of beard or
mustache that most suits your face, speak with
a professional hair stylist and ask for an opinion
on what style would be best. Once your beard
or mustache has been styled, it is essential
that you maintain its appearance. To do this,
use your shaper to trim, edge and line up your
beard/mustache weekly.
For the best trimming results, your beard should be
slightly damp (not wet) before using the trimmer.
This will prevent the trimmer from removing more
hair than desired.
tYpes Of Beards/mustaches
There are several things to look for if your
trimmer fails to operate:
1. Be sure the trimmer is turned ON.
2. Make sure that the batteries are properly
placed in the battery compartment. Test the bat-
teries to be sure they are working. (For optimum
trimmer operation, always replace all two AA
batteries at the same time.)
3. Check the blades to see if they are clogged
with hair clippings; if so, use the cleaning brush
to remove hair.
4. If the trimmer still fails to operate, take or
send it to a Conair Service Center (see warranty
procedure and addresses).
taking care Of YOur trimmer
Oiling the Blades
About once a month you should oil the
trimmer blades with the oil provided in your
kit. It is best to do this over a piece of newspa-
per. Turn the trimmer on and hold it so that the
blades are pointed downward. Spread one drop
of oil across the blades, then turn the trimmer off
and wipe away the excess oil with a soft cloth.
Be careful not to use too much oil and don’t oil
your trimmer more than necessary, as that could
damage the motor. (Never attempt to oil the
motor bearing as it is permanently lubricated.)
After oiling the blades, replace the trimmer and oil
packet in the trimmer storage pouch.
Blade care
Because the trimmer blades are precision made
for a very special use, they should always be
handled with care. Each time you finish using the
trimmer, take the cleaning brush provided and
brush away any loose hair that has collected in
the blades. Then store the trimmer in its storage
pouch until the next use.
Be especially careful when changing or adjust-
ing blades. When you have your trimmer ser-
viced, be sure that all blades are sharpened or
replaced at the same time.
To promote the long life of the appliance, use
your trimmer only for the purpose intended
by the manufacturer—to trim your beard and
mustache.
getting started
Outlining YOur Beard
1. It is always best to begin with a clean, slightly
damp beard.
2. After you have combed through your beard in
the direction it grows naturally, you will want to
outline the desired shape, beginning under your
jawline.
3. Begin defining your beard’s shape under
your chin and work upward on each side of
your face toward your ears. Then define the
upper outline of your beard across your cheeks,
past your sideburns and toward your hairline.
