$('.menu').slicknav('close'); // Method to close the menu

Without any additional configuration, both the original and mobile menus will be displayed. It is recommended to use media queries to hide the original menu and display the mobile menu when appropriate. Modernizr or similar can be used for graceful degradation.

For example:

.slicknav_menu {
    display:none;
}

@media screen and (max-width: 40em) {
    /* #menu is the original menu */
    .js #menu {
        display:none;
    }

    .js .slicknav_menu {
        display:block;
    }
}
