your desired look.
3. Beard hairs tend to lie down on your face, with the root located above. • To attach the blade, snap in place until it clicks.
Therefore, you will need to use a comb or brush to lift up the hair to help identify
where the hair is actually growing from (the root).
4. When creating a tapered look, start trimming your beard at the top, at about
the middle of your ear, and work your way downward, increasing the length
accordingly as you go. Don't start trimming too low, or you will be taking away
hairs that support those above them which contribute to your beard's mass and
help to achieve the tapering effect.
TRIMMING THE NAPE OF YOUR NECK
• You will need a hand mirror for this operation if performing it alone.
• 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 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 hair roots at the base of your head out of the way of the trimmer.
■ Do not use this trimmer with a damaged or broken cutting unit, as facial injury

may occur.
■ Always attach plug to trimmer, then adapter to outlet. To disconnect, turn all
controls to OFF, then remove adapter from outlet, then detach power cord from
the trimmer for storage.
■ Always store your trimmer and adapter in a moisture-free area. Make sure the
cord is disconnected from the trimmer.
■ Keep trimmer out of extreme heat and cold. Product must be stored at 0º F to 120º F.
■ Dispose of used batteries properly. Do not incinerate. Batteries may explode if
overheated. Do not wrap in metal or aluminum foil. Wrap in newspaper before
discarding. It is suggested that you contact local town/city officials to determine
proper battery redemption site(s) in your area.
