of the cut and a uniform result. Proceed to
use short cuts gradually going around the
head.
- Leave the hair a little longer than the desired
length as it can always be altered later.
- While working adapt the comb/comb guide
to the desired length.
- At regular intervals, stop cutting in order to
comb the hair and check the results so far.
Step 1 - Nape
- Attach comb guide #1 or #2.
- Hold the appliance with the razor facing
downwards and begin to cut the hair from the
base of the neck.
- Make some upward movements, raising the
appliance gradually and away from the head,
cutting the hair gradually until the height of the
ears (Fig. 3).
Step 2 - The back of the head
- Attach comb guide #3 or #4 and continue
with the back of the head (Fig. 4).
Step 3 - The side of the head
- Attach a new comb guide that is suitable for
the right and left sides of the head. (*)
-Attach a new shorter comb guide (#1 or #2)
to trim the sideburns.
- Attach the longest comb (#3 or #4) again
and continue until you reach the top of the
head.
(*) Only available in the model Mithos Plus
Step 4 - The top of the head
- Using comb guide #3 or #4, pass the appli-
ance from the back to the front, against the
growth of the hair (Fig. 5). In some cases it’s
necessary to go over what you have done a
second time from front to back.
- The comb guide #1 or #2 is for when you
want to achieve a more precise cut.
- Use comb guides #3 or #4 to leave hair at a
longer length. Hold the hair up with the comb
or the comb and your fingers and cut.
- Always work from the back to the front,
reducing the length between your fingers or
the comb and the head gradually.
Step 5 - Final touch
- Finally use the appliance without attaching
any comb guides to the blades to cut the hair
around the base of the neck, the sides of the
neck and the ears.
- To make the sideburns straight, turn the
appliance over to use the upper blades
(Fig. 6) move the appliance adapting it the
physiognomy of the head. To achieve more
precise results use the shaver or the finishing
attachment.
Once you have finished using the appli-
ance:
- Turn the appliance off, using the on/off
switch.
- Unplug the appliance from the mains.
- Put on the protective cover.
- Clean the appliance.
