cordless mode will reduce the life of the rechargeable battery.

7. If hair builds up in the trimmer comb during the trimming process, switch the unit
o, pull the comb and brush the hair o.
Note: Use the beard trimmer without the adjustable comb for trimming hair close to the
skin. This will trim hair to 1mm, holding the blades perpendicular to the skin will trim hair
to 0.4mm.
TRIMMING THE NAPE OF YOUR NECK
Note: you will need a hand mirror for this operation if performing it alone.
1. Remove the adjustable comb.
2. Use your ngers to lift the hair at the base of your head up o the neck. Your index
nger should be covering the roots of the hairs you are lifting to prevent accidental
removal by the beard trimmer.
3. Using your other hand, hold the trimmer to the base of your neck with the cutting
unit facing up and move the trimmer up the length of the neck until it touches your
nger covering the hair roots at the base of your head.
4. Be sure to move the unit slowly when performing this operation and to keep the
roots at the base of your head out of the way of the trimmer.
TO DEFINE THE BEARD/MOUSTACHE LINE
1. Hold the trimmer with the trimmer blade facing you.
2. Start with the edge of beard/moustache line and gently lower the trimmer blade
onto your skin.
3. Use motions towards the edge of the beard/moustache line to trim to desired
locations in facial area and away from beard in neck area.
BLADE RELEASE
• Ensure the trimmer is switched o.
• Remove the adjustable comb.
• Remove the blades by pushing your thumb upwards under the blades and move
the blade set away from the trimmer body.
• To reattach the blades, align the back of the blades with the back housing at the top
of the trimmer and push down until the blade set clicks into place.
TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
• Beard, moustache and sideburn hairs should be dry.
• Avoid using lotions before use.
