Using the Beard Trimmer with the 6-position Stubble or 6-positon Beard Comb Guide

Outlining

• To tidy up the edges around your cut e.g. neckline and sideburns, detach the comb guides.
• Hold the appliance upside down, so the front of the trimmer is facing towards your head.
• Hold the trimmer blades straight on your sideburns or neckline and move the trimmer blades downwards. This will give you a clean, smooth finish.
