Preparing for use

Using the appliance

Absorbing cut hairs

The suction system is activated automatically as soon as you switch the

appliance on. It absorbs cut hairs during every kind of use, i.e. trimming

with and without comb attachment and contouring.The flexible hair

guide follows the contours of the face and directs cut hairs towards the

nozzle of the vacuum mechanism.

We advise you to empty the hair-collection chamber after each

trimming session.When trimming 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 (also see

chapter 'Cleaning', section 'Hair-collection chamber').

BTo ensure optimal functioning of the vacuum system, do not cut off

more than approx. 7mm of your overall beard length at a time. If you

want to cut your beard shorter, repeat the process one or more times.

Trimming with comb attachment

1Turn the adjustment ring (Precision Zoom Lock`) to the desired

trimming length setting (see table) (fig. 3).

◗The setting will appear in the window below the adjustment ring

(Precision Zoom Lock`).

ENGLISH8

If you are trimming for the first time, start with the maximum

trimming length setting (9).

2To trim in the most effective way, move the trimmer against the

direction of hair growth. Do not move the trimmer too fast.

Make smooth and gentle movements and make sure the surface

of the comb always stays in contact with the skin (fig. 4).

Trimming at the unique 'stubble look' setting

1.This allows you to create a 'stubble look' (fig. 5).
