Using the appliance

Make sure your hair is clean and dry. Do not use the

appliance on freshly washed hair.

1

Comb your hair with a styling comb in the

direction of hair growth. (Fig. 3)
Clipping with comb attachment

Use the small or large comb attachment, depending

on the desired hair length. The remaining hair

length after cutting is indicated in mm on the comb

attachments. The selected hair length setting (1-5) is

shown in the two length setting indication windows

on both sides of the length selector. (Fig. 4)

See the table below for an overview of the length

settings and the corresponding hair lengths of each comb

attachment.

1

Slide the comb attachment into the guiding grooves

of the appliance (‘click’). (Fig. 5)

Make sure that the comb attachment has been properly

slid into the grooves on both sides.

2

Set the comb attachment to the desired hair length.

To do this, press the release button on the length

selector (1) and turn it to the left or right (2). (Fig.

6)

Do not turn the length selector beyond the highest hair

length setting (5).

3

Switch on the appliance.

Using the swivel head

From its starting position of 0° (pointing forwards),

you can turn the swivel head 45° or 90° to the left

or right. In this way, you can adjust the position of

the cutting element to the part of your head you

are clipping. This makes it much easier to clip your

own hair. (Fig. 7)

1

Set the cutting element to the desired position by

turning the swivel head (‘click’). (Fig. 8)

Always adjust the position of the cutting element with

the swivel head. Do not turn the cutting element or the

comb.
Do not turn the swivel head more than 90° to the left

or right.

The swivel head allows you to hold and use the

appliance like a brush. (Fig. 9)

Tips

We advise you to start clipping at the highest setting

of the large comb and to reduce the hair length

setting gradually.

If a lot of hair has accumulated in the comb

attachment, remove it from the clipper and blow

and/or shake the hair out of it. When you remove

the comb attachment, the hair length setting does

not change.

Write down the hair length settings you use to

create a certain hairstyle as a reminder for future

clipping sessions.

1

Move the clipper through the hair slowly.

The hair on different parts of your head grows in

different directions. You may want to try different

clipping directions (upwards, downwards and

across). (Fig. 10)

To clip in the most effective way, move the

appliance against the direction of hair growth.

2

Turn the swivel head to the position that is most

comfortable for your arm when clipping the

different parts of your head.

3

Make sure that the flat part of the comb

attachment is fully in contact with the scalp to

obtain an even cutting result.
Clipping without comb attachment

You can use the clipper without comb attachment to clip

your hair very close to the skin (0.8mm) or to contour

the neckline and the area around the ears.

Note:When you use the hair clipper without a comb

attachment, the clipper cuts the hair very close to the skin.

1

Remove the comb attachment by pulling it off the

appliance. (Fig. 11)

Never pull at the flexible top of the comb attachment.

Always pull at the bottom part.

2

When you contour the hair around the ears, only

cut the hair ends. The hairline should be close to

the ear. (Fig. 12)

3

To contour the neckline and the sideburns, turn the

clipper and make downward strokes. (Fig. 13)

4

Move slowly and smoothly. Just follow the natural

hairline.

5

Adjust the position of the swivel head to make

contouring easier.
Using the precision trimmer

You can use the appliance with the precision trimmer to

contour the neckline and the area around the ears more

easily and more precisely.

1

Make sure the appliance is switched off.
