Beard trimming

• Place the precision comb (1a) on the appliance with the appliance turned off (a).
• Make sure the lock switch (6a) is in the upper position and turn the length selector (6b) to your desired length. The beard comb slides automatically up or down (possible lenght settings 1 - 10 mm in 0,5 mm steps).
• To lock the comb at your desired length slide the lock switch (6a) down. The length selector is fixed.
• It is advisable to begin with the highest setting and then reduce the setting until you reach the desired beard length.
• Press the on/off switch (7). Hold the beard comb with the angled edge against your beard and guide the trimmer against the direction of the hair growth (a).
• To avoid clogging the beard comb with hair, clean it from time to time with the brush.

Contour Trimming / Styling

• The wide trimmer (2) evenly cuts and trims large areas. It is ideal for shaping sideburns, moustaches and partial short beards. Take off the comb. While stretching the skin, guide the wide trimmer against the direction of hair growth (b).
• The precision trimmer (3) precisely defines lines and edges and is ideal for precise contouring. To use the precision trimmer, press the release button (4) and slide it up (c).

Hair cutting

The hair should be clean, well combed, tangle-free and dry.

• Place the hair comb (1b) on the appliance with the appliance turned off (d).
• Press the length selector (6c) and slide the comb to your desired length (possible length settings 10 - 20 mm in 2 mm steps).
• If you are not used to clipping hair, begin with a highest setting and then reduce the setting to avoid cutting more hair than desired. If you want to cut your hair shorter than 10 mm, we advise to first cut it with the hair comb (1b) down to 10 mm and then use the beard comb for the desired length.
• Use a slow and controlled movement. Do not force the appliance through the hair faster than it can be cut.
• In between, shake or blow off the hair. If too much hair is caught in the comb, remove and clean it.

Cleaning

Regular cleaning ensures better trimming performance.

Cleaning with the brush

• Switch off the appliance. Open the wide trimmer by pressing with the thumb against the trimmer from the front side. It opens by ca. 45° and can also be taken off (h).
• Using the brush clean the trimmers and the space behind the wide trimmer (inside the housing).

Cleaning with water

• Switch off the appliance and rinse the head and trimmers under warm running water. You can also rinse the opened wide trimmer.
• Leave the appliance with opened wide trimmer to dry.

Keeping your appliance in top shape
