Length settings

The selected length setting is shown above the
zoom wheel when you select the desired hair
length setting with the zoom wheel.
Charging
Before first usage charge the appliance for 2 hours
without interruptions and until the battery charging
indication shows that the battery is full. This is
needed to make maximum use of the battery
capacity. All next charges will take 1 hour.
Charge the appliance before first use and when the
bottom light of the battery status indicator flashes
orange.
1
Make sure the appliance is switched off.
2 Put the supply unit in the wall socket and put
the small plug in the appliance (Fig. 7).
3 After charging, remove the supply unit from the
wall socket and pull the small plug out of the
appliance.
When the appliance is fully charged, it has a
cordless operating time of up to 60 minutes.
Quick charge
When the battery is empty and you connect the
appliance to the wall socket, the battery charge
indicator flashes quickly. When the appliance
contains enough energy for one trimming session,
the battery charge indicator starts flashing white
slowly.
Quick charge takes approx. 5 minutes.

Using the appliance

Note: This appliance can be used without cord or
directly from the wall socket.
You can use this appliance for a stubble beard and
a short beard. This appliance has an integrated
vacuum system that catches cut beard hair for
a less messy trimming experience.
The vacuum system is activated automatically as
soon as you switch on the appliance.
Note: Switch off and clean the appliance after each
use.
Switching the appliance on and off
Press the on/off button once to switch the
appliance on or off (Fig. 8).
Trimming without comb
- Use the appliance without beard and stubble
comb to trim hair close to the skin or to contour
the neckline and sideburns. To trim hair close to
the skin, place the flat side of the trimming
head against your skin and make strokes in the
desired direction (Fig. 9).
- For contouring, hold the trimming head
perpendicular to the skin and move the
trimming head upwards or downwards with
gentle pressure (Fig. 10).
- You can use the precision trimmer to create fine
lines and contours around your facial style,
close to the skin. Simply pull the cutting
element straight off (Fig. 11) and insert the
precision trimmer.
Trimming with comb
Note: When you trim for the first time, start at the
highest length setting to familiarize yourself with
the appliance.
- You can use the beard and stubble comb
attached to the cutting element to groom your
beard and moustache in your preferred style.
For the beard and stubble comb, you can turn
the zoom wheel to choose from 20 length
settings ranging from 0.5mm to 10mm in steps
of 0.5mm (Fig. 6).
1
Attach the detail comb or the beard and
stubble comb onto the appliance (Fig. 12).
2 Switch on the appliance.
3 To trim most effectively, move the appliance
against the hair growth direction (Fig. 13). Make
sure that the surface of the comb always stays
in contact with the skin.

Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning the appliance
Note: Only the cutting element and the comb can
be cleaned with water.
We advise you to empty the hair-collection
chamber after each trimming session. When you
trim long, dense beards, it may also be necessary
to empty the hair-collection chamber during the
trimming session in order to maintain optimal
suction performance.
1
Switch off the appliance and disconnect it from
the wall socket.
2 Wipe the housing of the appliance with a dry
cloth.
3 Remove the comb (Fig. 14) and clean it with the
cleaning brush and/or rinse it under the tap
(Fig. 15).
4 Remove the cutting unit and clean it under the
tap (Fig. 16). Carefully shake off excess water
and let the cutting unit air-dry completely.
Caution: Never dry the cutting unit with a towel or
tissue, as this may damage the trimming teeth.
5 Shake out the hairs that have collected in the
hair chamber.
6 Brush out the hairs with the cleaning brush (Fig.
17) or cleaning sponge (Fig. 18) supplied.
7 After cleaning, reattach the cutting unit (Fig. 19)
and comb (Fig. 12) to the appliance.
