6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Philips Beard Trimmer, refer to the following common solutions:

• Trimmer not turning on: Ensure the trimmer is fully charged. Check if the power button is pressed firmly.
• Poor trimming performance: Clean the blades and comb thoroughly to remove any trapped hairs. Ensure the comb is correctly attached. The blades are self-sharpening, but if performance significantly degrades over time, contact support.
• Battery not holding charge: Ensure the charger is properly connected to both the trimmer and the power outlet. If the issue persists, the battery may require service.

Safety Information: Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and water (for the main unit). Unplug when not in use. Do not use on infants or children without adult supervision.
