Optimizing the lifetime of the rechargeable battery

When you have charged the appliance for the first time, we advise you to use it until the battery is completely empty. Continue to use the appliance until the motor almost stops running during a session. Then recharge the battery. Follow this procedure at least twice a year.

Using the appliance

Always comb the beard and/or moustache with a fine comb before you start trimming.

Be careful when you trim for the first time. Do not move the trimmer too fast. Make smooth and gentle movements.

Switching the appliance on and off

1 To switch on the appliance, slide the on/off button up.

2 To switch off the appliance, slide the on/off button down.

Trimming with comb

The length settings on the Precision Zoom LockTM adjustment ring (ranging from 1 to 10) correspond to the remaining hair length after trimming. For example, setting 2 equals a hair length of 2mm .

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

1 Slide the beard trimming comb straight into the guiding groove of the appliance.

2 Turn the Precision Zoom Lock™ adjustment ring to the desired setting. The selected setting is the setting in the center of the adjustment ring.
3 Switch on the appliance.
4 To trim most effectively, move the appliance against the hair growth direction. Make sure that the surface of the comb always stays in contact with the skin.
