Trimming
To trim the length of your facial hair, use the 5-in-1 guard. The numbers on the guard relate to the hair length remaining after trimming (in millimeters).
Tip: if you are unsure which length you prefer, start with the longest setting and reduce the length further if necessary.

- Hook the back of the guard over the back of the blade, then gently press the front of the guard downwards until it clicks into place.
- Note: if you experience difficulties attaching the guard, ensure that the two small hooks on the bottom (on the side closest to the teeth) are properly aligned on the upper edge of the blade.
- Press and roll

- Press down on the length dial on the comb using your thumb, and roll it until your preferred length is selected.

- To detach the guard, hold the handle firmly and gently lift the guard off the blade. For best results, clean your OneBlade after each use.
Trimming body hair
Note: the following section applies to the QP2834 only.
The 1/8inch (3mm) body guard allows you to trim hair on your body below the neckline (for example chest, armpits and groin).
For hygiene reasons, we recommend using the separate body blade provided when trimming body hair.
For delicate areas such as the groin, only trim when the guard is attached.
-
- Place the the guard onto the blade and gently press until it clicks into place.
- Trim against the grain
-
- Trim against the direction of hair growth, with the teeth of the guard flat against your skin. The guard is double sided, so you can move your OneBlade back and forth to cut hairs growing in different directions.
- Remove the guard
- To detach the guard, hold the handle firmly and gently lift the guard off the blade. For best results, clean your OneBlade after each use.
Cleaning OneBlade

- Rinse the guard
- Guards can also be cleaned under the tap using warm water.
- Allow to air dry
- Allow your OneBlade and accessories to air dry completely before storage.
Note: Do not bang the handle on the sink or any hard surface, a this may damage the product. Do not use a towel or cloth to dry the blade.
Storage
Store your OneBlade in a safe, dry location where it will not be crushed, banged, or subject to damage. To protect the blade, store the product with the protection cap attached. Do not wrap the cable around the product when storing, and do not place or store the product where it can fall or be pulled into a tub or sink, water or other liquid while plugged in.
When to replace the blade
For optimal cutting and gliding performance, we advise you to replace the blade every 4 months or when it no longer provides the shaving or trimming results you expect. Depending on your usage behavior, the exact lifetime of the blade could be longer or shorter.
Wear indicator
A replacement symbol will gradually appear on the blade as you use it. When the replacement symbol is fully visible, it's recommended to replace your blade.
Note that accessories such as guards can prevent the replacement symbol from becoming visible.
Tip: the replacement symbol resembles the arrow icon on the handle of your OneBlade. For older blades, a green rectangle may appear in place of the replacement symbol.
