Philips QT4021-63 - Manual

To Charge/Recharge
w Fully charge Trimmer before using for the first
time or after non-use for a long period of time.
w Battery performance is best if you recharge
only when the battery is (almost) completely
empty.
w Charging, recharging, or using the Trimmer at
temperatures below 40˚F or higher than 95˚F
adversely affects lifespan of the battery.
w Continuously recharging Trimmer will reduce
lifespan of battery.
1 Be certain Trimmer is OFF (fig. 1).
2 Insert the appliance plug directly into the
Trimmer (fig. 2) and plug the adaptor into any
120V AC outlet. Use only the cord provided.

cord usage in some foreign countries. Use
an attachment plug adaptor of the proper
configuration for power outlet.
3 The Charging Light on the appliance will light
to indicate the Trimmer is charging.
w It will take approximately 10 hours to fully
charge the Trimmer for a cordless trimming
time of up to 35 minutes.
NOTE: After the Trimmer is fully charged, the
Charging Light will remain lit.
4 Disconnect the cord and unplug from
electrical outlet.
Optimize the working life of the battery

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.

period of time, it must be recharged for a full
10 hours.

battery is empty.
w Trimmer does not recharge during corded
trimming.

Trimmer into electrical outlet.

minutes before switching Trimmer ON.

Trimming
w Use this Trimmer for its intended household
use as described in this manual.

careful. Do not move the Trimmer too fast.
Make smooth and gentle movements.
Trimming with the Guide
Comb Attachment
w Guide Comb Attachment must be on Trimmer
in order to use the Zoom Lock.
1 Turn the Zoom Lock to the desired trimming
length setting (see table). The setting will
appear in the window below the Zoom Lock
(fig. 3).
w If you are trimming for the first time, start by
using the maximum trimming length setting
(#9) to prevent accidentally trimming hairs too
short. As you become familiar with the settings,
adjust Zoom Lock to desired trimming length.
Zoom Lock will “click” into position at each
setting.
After Each Use:
1 Make sure the Trimmer is switched OFF
and disconnected from the electrical outlet.
2 Remove the Guide Comb Attachment.
3 Open the cutting unit (fig. 9).
4 Clean the cutting unit and the inside of the

upwards (fig. 12).
3 Place the two notches of the new cutting
unit into the guiding slots (fig. 13).

until you hear a ‘click’.

with household scissors (fig. 17).

11 Contact your local town or city officials
for battery disposal information or call
1-800-8-BATTERY or www.rbrc.com for
battery drop-off locations.
2 Switch the Trimmer ON.
3 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 (fig. 4).
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.
4 If cut hairs have accumulated in the Guide
Comb, turn Trimmer off, remove the Comb
Attachment and blow and/or shake the
hair out of the comb (fig. 5). The selected
trimming length setting will not change
when you do this.
Never pull off the Guide Comb Attachment
by grasping the flexible top portion. Always
pull off by the bottom part of attachment.
Trimming For ‘Stubble’ Look
1 Be certain Guide Comb is on Trimmer
and use setting #1 to result in a “stubble”
look (fig. 6).
Trimming Without the Comb
Attachment
Remove Guide Comb Attachment 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 the Guide Comb Attachment by
pulling it off the Trimmer (fig. 7).
3 Switch the Trimmer ON.
4 Make well-controlled movements. Touch the
hair lightly with the Trimmer (fig. 8).
Be careful when you are trimming without comb
attachment as when the Trimmer is turned on it
will trim every hair it touches.
Cleaning
w Clean the comb attachment after each use.
w Always switch Trimmer OFF, unplug and remove
power supply cord from Trimmer before
cleaning.

agents, scourers or liquids such as alcohol,
benzene, bleach or acetone to clean the
Trimmer and attachments.

with motor ON.
w Never rinse or immerse the Trimmer in water
or any other liquid.
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 the Guide
Comb area, turn Trimmer off, pull Guide Comb
Attachment off Trimmer and remove hairs by
shaking and/or blowing.
