TIPS FOR FIRST-TIME USERS
If you are using an electric shaver for the first time, your skin will probably need to condition itself to this new shaving technique. Start on the easiest part of the face first, usually the smooth portion of the face below the ear. Shave with a light touch and use your Wahl Shaver exclusively for three to four weeks, or longer if you have sensitive skin or if your whiskers grow at different angles in certain areas. Initially, your shaves may not be as close as you would like, and your skin may become a bit irritated. But if you stick with it, you will eventually get great shaves.
If you go several days without shaving and your beard gets a bit long, use the pop-up trimmer to go over your beard, catching all the longer hairs and setting up the remaining stubble for the foil to shave smooth and clean.
If you have been using another type of electric shaver before, there may also be a period of conditioning before receiving maximum results.

QUICK TIPS & HANDY REMINDERS

1. If you are a first-time electric shaver user, or changing from another brand, there will be a 2 to 3-week (or less) adjustment period while your face and beard adapts to the new foil.
2. When you open your package, charge your shaver for 1 hour before the first shave or until charging is complete.
3. Replace the foil head and cutter bars every 12 months or if foils are damaged. Replacement foils can be ordered at https://home.wahl.com.
4. Be sure to clean the shaver, cutter bars and foil after every three or four shaves.
5. Use the pop-up long-hair trimmer to snip stray hairs.
6. Keep using and both your face and beard will adapt to the shaver.

TRAVEL LOCK

• The Wahl 7061 Series Shaver comes with an electronic travel lock to avoid accidental activation while transporting.
• Hold the power button down for 3 seconds to engage travel lock.
• Hold the power button down for 3 seconds to disengage travel lock.
• When the travel lock is active, pressing the power button will cause the LED(s) to flash for 1 second.
  NOTE : The shaver will not charge while the travel lock is engaged.

CHARGING OPERATION

The shaver cannot be overcharged, so you may charge it as often as desired. However, periodic recharging of the shaver, rather than continuous recharging, will prolong battery life.

• MODELS WITH 1 LED
  Charge when the shaver seems to lose power or run slower. The charging LED will light up while charging. LED will turn off when charging is complete.

• MODELS WITH 2 LEDS
  The red LED will flash for one second when turning off the shaver when it is time to charge (below 10%).
  The blue LED will light up while charging. LED will turn off when charging is complete.

• MODELS WITH 5 LEDS
  The LED meter will show the amount of charge left on the shaver.
  The fewer lights that are lit, the lower the charge on the battery is.
  The red LED will flash for one second when turning off the shaver when it is time to charge (below 10%).
  While charging, the LED meter will show the progression of charging. All LEDs will turn off when charging is complete.

SHAVING PROCEDURES FOR FAST, CLOSE SHAVES

We suggest that you thoroughly cleanse and completely dry your skin before shaving.
For maximum speed and efficiency, hold the shaver so that both screens are in contact with the skin. When shaving the upper lip or neck, hold the shaver so that the uppermost screen is in contact with the skin.
Shave both with and against the grain of the beard and stretch the skin taut in the path of the shaver. Guide the dual foil heads gently back and forth, primarily against the grain of the beard. Do not press screen heads hard against face. Heavy scrubbing action with the shaver could damage the foil and will not result in a closer shave. Always replace the foil guard to protect the delicate dual foil heads when the shaver is off.

SHAVING HEAVY BEARD GROWTH
Begin shaving in a less dense area of the beard. Move the shaver in a circular motion on a small area of the face (this picks up the hairs that grow in all directions). When you see that this small area is shaved clean, gradually move into a new area while still using the circular motion.
Continue this motion, one small section at a time, until the entire face is shaved.
If your beard has more than 3 days of growth, use the pop-up Long-Hair Trimmer to cut the beard down to about a one-day growth before using the shaver foil.

LONG-HAIR TRIMMER OPERATION
Your shaver features a special long-hair trimmer located on the back of the shaver which telescopes up from the foil head for precise and easy trimming of sideburns, beards or mustaches, and for removing long hairs from the neck. And, as mentioned earlier, it can be used to “knock down” heavy beard growth before shaving with the foil.
To use, remove the Foil Guard and simply push the Long-Hair Trimmer Switch in an upward motion until the trimmer slides (clicks) into position. Push On/Off Switch. Then begin trimming/styling.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• SHAVER HEAD CARE
  For maximum performance, we recommend you clean your shaver after every few shaves. Any servicing, other than replacement of the foil head and cutter bars, should be performed by an authorized Wahl Shaver Service Center or Wahl Clipper Corporation (see Warranty for mailing address information).
  To clean, turn the shaver “OFF” and remove the foil head by pushing the shaver head release buttons on the sides of the shaver and lifting the foil head upward.
  Lightly tap the open side of the foil head on a hard surface to remove the majority of loose stubble particles. Be careful not to tap the foil.
  For easy cleaning, you may rinse your shaver with water. While the foils can be rinsed, we recommend removing the foil head and rinsing the cutter bars. This will allow any hairs still on the cutter bars to be washed away. Leaving the foil head on while rinsing makes in more difficult for hairs to be washed clean.

• TO REMOVE CUTTER BAR
  Turn the shaver off. Remove the foil head and, holding the shaver in one hand, gently pull up on the cutter bar. Be sure your thumb and first finger are positioned at each end of the cutter bar.
  WARNING : Handle cutting components with care to avoid personal injury.
  NOTE: If you do not hold the cutter bar as shown, brushing the blades could result in damage to the assembly.
  When the foil head and cutter bars are removed from the shaver, an alternate cleaning method is to rinse them under running water. Simply let them air dry. After cleaning, replace the cutter bars by pressing down gently. Carefully replace the foil head, snapping it into place.
  From time to time, depending on the density of your beard, you will need to replace the cutters and foils. If you notice that it is taking you longer to shave, if your face starts to feel some irritation, or if the foil seems to become warm to the touch, it is probably time to replace the cutters and foils. Replace the cutters and foils only with WAHL parts (Yellow: 7045-100, Silver: 7045-400, Black Chrome: 7045-700).

• CLEANING & OILING BLADES TRIMMER **BLADES
  Clean with the included brush. For best results, put one or two drops of 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 one or two drops of oil onto the blades. 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 the motor.

• FOIL & BLADE CARE
  Trimmer blades have precision-hardened, ground, and lapped cutting teeth. Foils, cutter bar, and blades should be handled carefully and never bumped or used to cut dirty or abrasive material.

• STORAGE
  Before storing your trimmer, use the cleaning brush to whisk any loose hairs from the unit, foils, cutter bar, and blades. Store unit in such a manner so that blades are protected from damage.
  When the shaver is not in use, the shaver foil/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.

• CORD CARE
  The cord should not be used to pull the shaver. Freedom of movement needs to be maintained. Care should be used to keep the cord untwisted and undamaged. When stored, the cord should be coiled and replaced neatly in its original package or storage pouch.

WET/DRY USE

NOTE : Do not submerge the shaver in more than 3 feet of water or for more than 30 minutes to prevent water ingress into the electronics. Warranty is void if shaver is submerged beyond these limitations. The Wahl shaver is designed to be water-resistant and shower-proof (IPX7). This lets you use your Wahl shaver in the shower or at the sink without worry and makes it easy to clean under running water.
NOTE : The shaver is for wet/dry use. The shaver will not run while
the cord is attached for safety.
