2 How to charge the
battery
Using the rechargeable battery
Charge the battery by plugging the
Trimmer into an AC source using the
cord. The switch should be set to “0-
charge” during charging. Charge the
trimmer fully for 24 hours before us-
ing it for the first time, or when it has
not been used for more than 6
months. For normal use, charge it
fully for 1 hour. A full charge will give
40 minutes of use.
• The lamp lights while the battery is
being charged and flashes when
the charging is completed.
• The trimmer will become warm
while the battery is being charged,
but this is not a malfunction.
Using an AC power source
Plug the Trimmer into an AC power
source using the cord with the switch
set to “0-charge”. Wait about 1
minute, then switch the Trimmer on.
After use, return the switch to the “0-
charge” position.

ment (a) to the body.

4 Leveling the beard
height
1 Adjust the trimming height.
2 Trim with upward movements.
(Hold the comb part of the trim-
ming height attachment against
your skin in the opposite direction
to the hair growth.)
When trimming a lot of beard, the
beard cuttings accumulate inside the
trimming height attachment. If this
happens, empty the attachment
when necessary.
5 Shaping the beard and
aligning the edges
Remove the trimming height attach-
ment from the body.
Trim with the blade at a 90
° angle to
the beard.
(Trim a little at a time in order to pre-
vent trimming too much.)
