Operation
Charging and cordless trimming
When charging the beard/hair trim-
mer for the first time or when it has
not been in use for more than 6
months, charge it for the activation
for at least 16 hours before use.
Connect the power cord to the beard/
hair trimmer, and plug the adaptor to
an AC outlet.
In some areas, a special plug adap-
tor may be required.
The charge indicator lamp will glow
red and it will stay on until the adap-
tor is disconnected from the AC out-
let. (see fig. 4)
You can fully charge the trimmer in 8
hours if it seems to be losing speed.
A full charge will supply enough
power for approx. 10 trims (5 minutes
per trim for a normal beard).
AC operation
Connect the AC adaptor to the body
in the same way as for charging, and
set the switch to “1” to use the trim-
mer.
If the trimmer does not operate after
connection as mentioned above, re-
turn switch to “0•charge” position for
1 minute and then set switch back to
“1” position.
Trimming of beard
Place the angled face of the comb
against the skin and cut the beard
by moving the trimmer in all direc-
tions to obtain a uniform cut. (see fig.
5)
With curly facial hair, the comb at-
tachment may not cut all of the hair.
In this case, remove the comb attach-
ment and use a conventional comb
to draw out the remaining uncut, hair.
(see fig. 6)
When shaping the beard, remove the
comb attachment. Place the angled
edge against the skin and make the
border of the beard even.
Thinning Plate
When thinning, slide the thinning
plate up until it firmly clicks in
position. (see fig. 7)
Thinning Plate Lock Button
Press and hold while sliding the
Thinning plate down to set the
Thinning Plate back to its original
position.
This Beard/Hair Trimmer is for the
