Operating Instructions

The Philips OneBlade can be used for shaving, trimming, and edging. It is 100% waterproof, allowing for wet or dry use, even in the shower, without the need for shaving cream.

Shaving

• Ensure the blade is clean and properly attached.
• Press the power button to turn on the device.
• Move the OneBlade against the grain of your hair. The blade follows the contours of your face for a comfortable shave.
• Note that the OneBlade does not shave as close as a traditional blade, which helps prevent skin irritation.

Trimming

• Attach one of the three stubble combs (1mm, 3mm, or 5mm) to achieve your desired beard length.
  • 1mm comb: For a 5 o'clock shadow look.
  • 3mm comb: For a tight, short trim.
  • 5mm comb: For a longer stubble.
• Turn on the device and move it against the direction of hair growth to trim evenly.

Edging

• Remove any attached stubble comb.
• Use the dual-sided blade to create precise edges and clean lines.
• Move the blade in any direction to shape your beard or create sharp lines.

Maintenance

Cleaning

• After each use, turn off the device.
• Rinse the blade and the device under running tap water. The OneBlade is 100% waterproof.
• Shake off excess water and allow the device to air dry completely before storing or recharging.

Blade Replacement

• The durable stainless steel blade is designed to last up to 4 months with typical use (based on 2 full shaves per week).
• When the replacement indicator (eject icon) appears on the blade, it signifies that the blade's performance may no longer be optimal.
• To replace the blade, press the eject button and slide off the old blade. Snap a new Philips OneBlade replacement blade into place.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Philips OneBlade, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Device not turning on: Ensure the device is fully charged. If the battery is depleted, charge it for 8 hours.
• Poor shaving performance: The blade may need replacement. Check for the eject icon indicator. Ensure the blade is clean and free of hair debris.
• Irritation: Ensure you are using the device correctly, moving it against the grain. If irritation persists, ensure the blade is not dull and consider replacing it.
