the wall socket.

Using the appliance
Corded trimming
Do not run the appliance from the mains when the battery is fully
charged.
Note: If the battery is low, you can also use the appliance from the mains:
1 Switch off the trimmer, connect it to the mains and wait a few
seconds before you switch it on.
ENGLISH8

2 If the battery is completely empty, wait a few minutes before you
switch on the appliance.
Turbo function
You can use the turbo function for greater suction power and increased
cutting speed.
1 Switch on the appliance (Fig. 3).
2 Press the turbo button (Fig. 4).
When you switch off the appliance, the turbo function is deactivated
automatically.
Absorbing cut hairs
The suction mechanism is activated automatically as soon as you switch
on the appliance. It absorbs cut hairs during every kind of use, i.e.
trimming with and without comb attachment and contouring. The exible
hair guide follows the contours of the face and directs cut hairs towards
the nozzle of the vacuum mechanism.
We advise you to empty the hair-collection chamber after each trimming
session.When trimming long, dense beards, it may also be necessary to
empty the hair-collection chamber during the trimming session in order
to maintain optimal suction performance (see chapter ‘Cleaning’, section
‘Hair-collection chamber’).
Note:To ensure optimal functioning of the vacuum system, do not cut off
more than approx. 7mm of your overall beard length at a time. If you want to
cut your beard shorter, repeat the process one or more times.
Trimming with comb attachment
1 Turn the adjustment ring (Precision Zoom Lock `) to the desired
hair length setting (see table). (Fig. 5)
,The setting appears in the window below the adjustment ring
(Precision Zoom Lock `).

Note: Make smooth and gentle movements and make sure the surface of the
comb attachment always stays in contact with the skin.

‘Cleaning’).
