Trimming

Trimming tips

- If you are trimming for the first time, be careful. Do not move the appliance too fast. Make smooth and gentle movements

12 English

• 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.
• Always make smooth and gentle movements and be sure the surface of the comb always stays in contact with your skin.

Trimming with comb

Note: When you trim for the first time, start at the highest length setting to familiarize yourself with the appliance.

Use the beard and stubble comb attached to the cutting unit to groom your beard and moustache in your preferred style. The beard and stubble comb allows you to choose from 20 length settings ranging from 0.5mm to 10mm in steps of 0.5mm. You can set the desired setting by turning the zoom wheel.
