careful. Do not move the product too
fast. Make smooth and gentle
movements.

the highest length setting to familiarize
yourself with the product.

product against the hair growth direction.
Make sure that the surface of the guard
always stays in contact with the skin (Fig.
10).
Note: Since hairs do not all grow in the
same direction, you may want to try
different trimming positions (i.e. upwards,
downwards, or across). Practice is best
for optimum results.

guard during use, switch off the product,
remove the guard and blow and/or
shake the hair out of the guard.

the hair lightly with the trimmer.

skin, place the flat side of the trimming
head against your skin and make
strokes in the desired direction (Fig.

For contouring hold the trimming
head perpendicular to the skin and
move the trimming head upwards or
downwards with gentle pressure (Fig.

each use (see 'Cleaning').
