Move the appliance through the hair slowly.
-
To clip in the most effective way, move the appliance
against the direction of hair growth.
-
Since all hair does not grow in the same direction,
you need to move the appliance in different
directions (upward, downward or across) (Fig. 10).
-
Make sure that the flat part of the comb is always
fully in contact with the scalp to obtain an even
result.
-
Make overlapping passes over the head to ensure
that you cut all the hair that needs to be cut.
-
To achieve a good result with curly, sparse or long
hair, use a comb to guide the hair towards the
appliance.

Regularly remove cut hair from the comb.
If a lot of hair has accumulated in the comb, remove the
comb from the appliance and blow and/or shake the hair
out of it.
Contouring without hair clipping comb
You can use the appliance without hair clipping comb to
clip hair very close to the skin (0.6mm) or to contour the
neckline and the area round the ears.
Be careful when you clip without comb because the
cutting element removes every hair it touches.
1
Press the setting selector upwards and pull the
comb off the handle. (Fig. 11)
2
Before you start to contour the hairline round the
ears, comb the hair ends over the ears.
3
Tilt the appliance in such a way that only one edge
of the cutting element touches the hair ends when
you shape the contours round the ears (Fig. 12).
Only cut the hair ends. The hairline should be close to
the ear.
4
To contour the neckline and sideburns, turn the
appliance and make downward strokes (Fig. 13).
Move the appliance slowly and smoothly. Follow the
natural hairline.
