Hair cutting
The hair should be clean, well combed, tangle-free and dry.
• Place the hair comb (1b) on the appliance with the appliance turned off (d).
• Press the length selector (6c) and slide the comb to your desired length
(possible length settings 10 - 20 mm in 2 mm steps).
• If you are not used to clipping hair, begin with a highest setting and then
reduce the setting to avoid cutting more hair than desired. If you want to
cut your hair shorter than 10 mm, we advise to first cut it with the hair
comb (1b) down to 10 mm and then use the beard comb for the desired
length.
• Use a slow and controlled movement. Do not force the appliance through
the hair faster than it can be cut.
• In between, shake or blow off the hair. If too much hair is caught in the
comb, remove and clean it.
Cleaning
Regular cleaning ensures better trimming performance.
Cleaning with the brush
• Switch off the appliance. Open the wide trimmer by pressing with the
thumb against the trimmer from the front side. It opens by ca. 45° and can
also be taken off (h).
• Using the brush clean the trimmers and the space behind the wide
trimmer (inside the housing).
Cleaning with water
• Switch off the appliance and rinse the head and trimmers under warm
running water. You can also rinse the opened wide trimmer.
• Leave the appliance with opened wide trimmer to dry.
Keeping your appliance in top shape
To keep the cutting system working properly, oil it with light machine oil
after each use (i).
Preserving the batteries
In order to maintain the optimum capacity of the rechargeable batteries, the
appliance has to be fully discharged (by trimming/cutting) every 6 months
approximately. Then recharge the appliance to full capacity.
