with a comb.

appliance.
Note: Using setting 1 with the comb installed results
in a ‘stubble look’.

appliance slowly against the direction of hair
growth. (Fig. 6)
Do not move the appliance too fast. Make smooth
and gentle movements and make sure the surface
of the comb always stays in contact with the skin.

Regularly remove the comb to blow and/or
shake out hair that has accumulated.
You have to set the trimming length again after
you have removed the comb!

selector (1) and slide the comb upwards

pull at the bottom part.

your beard only lightly with the trimming
attachment.

moist cloth.
Never use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents
or aggressive liquids such as alcohol, petrol or
acetone to clean the appliance.
