This appliance can be used “cordless” by powering it from its internal rechargeable battery, or “corded” by connecting it to the charging adaptor and then the mains power supply. Powering the appliance from the charging adaptor is useful if the rechargeable battery does not have enough charge. Be aware, however, that frequent use of the cordless mode will reduce the life of the rechargeable battery.

Select the comb length by rotating the zoom wheel upwards to increase the length and downwards to decrease the length. Please see the table below for the different length increments.
The wheel will click into place as it reaches each setting and the setting number will appear on the length position indicator.

GROOMING TIPS

Here are a few tips for trimming the various parts of your facial hair (guide only).

To Thin and Taper the Beard/Moustache

Fit the adjustable comb.
Use the zoom wheel to set the comb to the desired length setting.
The setting will appear on the length position indicator. If you are trimming for the first time start with the maximum trimming length setting.
Turn the unit on.
Place the flat top of the trimmer comb against the skin.
Slowly slide through the hair. Repeat from different directions as necessary.
If hair builds up in the trimmer comb during the trimming process, switch the unit off, pull the comb and brush the hair off.

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.

Remove the adjustable comb.
Use your fingers to lift the hair at the base of your head up off the neck. Your index finger should be covering the roots of the hairs you are lifting to prevent accidental removal by the beard trimmer.
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 finger covering the hair roots at the base of your head.
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

Hold the trimmer with the trimmer blade facing you.
Start with the edge of the beard/moustache line and gently lower the trimmer blade onto your skin.
Use motions towards the edge of the beard/moustache line to trim to desired locations in the facial area and away from the beard in the neck area.

Blade Release

Ensure the trimmer is switched off.
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.
Comb your hair in the direction that it grows.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

To ensure the long-lasting performance of the trimmer, clean the blades and unit regularly.
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners on the unit or blades.
This product has washable blades. Ensure the blades are detached from the trimmer before washing the blades.
Wash the blades under a running tap to remove any hair clippings.
After rinsing under a tap ensure the blades are dry.
Please note the main body of the trimmer is not washable and should be kept away from water.
After each use, it is recommended to clean hair from the blades either by rinsing the blades or using the cleaning brush.
We recommend that you oil the blades regularly. Add a few drops on all gliding surfaces, the cutting area and the back pads of the blades.
