hair length. The indication on the inside of each
comb corresponds to the remaining hair length
after clipping.

1 Comb the hair in the direction of hair growth.
2 Attach the desired comb onto the appliance
(see 'Removing or attaching combs').
3 To clip the hair move the appliance through the
hair slowly. Make sure that the flat part of the
comb is in full contact with the scalp to obtain
an even cutting result (Fig. 10).
Hair clipping tips
- To clip most effectively, move the appliance
against the hair growth direction.
- Move the appliance in different directions
(upward, downward or across), because hair
doesn't all grow in the same direction.
- Make overlapping passes over the head to
ensure that the appliance catches all the hairs
that need to be cut.
- Write down which comb(s) you use to create a
certain hairstyle as a reminder for future
clipping sessions.
- Regularly remove cut hair from the comb. If a lot
of hair has accumulated in the comb, remove it
from the appliance and blow and/or shake out
the hairs (see 'Cleaning').
Cleaning
Never dry the cutting unit with a towel or tissue,
as this may damage the trimming teeth.
Clean the appliance every time you have used it.
Only clean the appliance with the cleaning brush
supplied.
Never use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents
or aggressive liquids such as alcohol, petrol or
acetone to clean the appliance.
1 Switch off the appliance and disconnect it from
the wall socket.
2 Wipe the housing of the appliance with a dry

3 Remove the comb and clean it with the

and/or rinse it under the tap (Fig. 14).
6 Clean the inside of the appliance with the brush
and/or rinse it under the tap (Fig. 15).
7 Carefully shake off excess water and let all parts
dry.
8 For optimal performance, lubricate the teeth of
the cutting unit with the oil supplied with the
product regularly (Fig. 16).
9 Insert the lug of the cutting unit into the guiding
slot and push the cutting unit back onto the
appliance.
Note: If the appliance does not perform as well as
it used to or if the operating time has decreased,
the cutting unit might not be properly lubricated.
