time or after non-use for a long period of time.
Charging, recharging or using the Trimmer in
temperatures below 4°C (40° F) or higher than
35°C (95° F) adversely affects lifespan of the
battery.
• If the Trimmer is subjected to a major change
in temperature, pressure or humidity, let the
trimmer acclimatize for 30 minutes before
using.
• Continuously recharging Trimmer will reduce
lifespan of battery.

Trimmer (Fig.2) and plug adapter into any

RED to indicate the Trimmer is charging. After

time of up to 45 minutes.
4. Disconnect the cord and unplug from
electrical outlet.

TRIMMING
• Use this Trimmer for its intended household

careful. Do not move the Trimmer too fast.

TRIMMING WITH YOUR BEARD
Trimming Comb (Note: Beard Trimming Comb
must be on Trimmer to use the Zoom Lock.)
1. Turn the Zoom Lock to the desired
trimming length setting (See table). The
setting is indicated in the center of the
adjustment ring (Fig. 3). If you are trimming
for the first time, start by using the comb
at the maximum trimming length setting
(#10) to prevent accidentally trimming
hairs too short. As you become familiar with
the settings, adjust Zoom Lock to desired
trimming length. Zoom Lock will “click” into
position at each setting.
2. Switch the Trimmer ON.
3. To trim in the most effective way, move
the Trimmer against the direction of hair
growth. Make sure the surface of the comb
always stays in contact with the skin
(Fig. 4).
4. If cut hairs have accumulated in the comb
turn Trimmer off, remove the comb and
shake the hair out of comb (Fig. 5). The
selected trimming length setting will not
change when you do this.
Trimming without the Beard Trimming comb
1. Be certain the Trimmer is in the OFF
position.
