2 To do this, put the teeth of the  
cutting head in the central grove  
of the comb and gently press on  
the bottom of the blade head  
until it catches (1 and 2).  
The appliance has a ceramic/stain-  
less steel cutting head . You can

C
trimming using the lever . This  
allows you to finely adjust the trim-  
ming length.  
3 Place a towel around the neck  
and shoulder of the person  
Trimming hair  
whose hair you are trimming.  
Make sure the person is seated  
so that their head is roughly at  
your eye level. Before trimming,  
comb the hair so that it falls nat-  
urally and you can see the direc-  
tion in which it grows.

grade you need (see the table

OPERATION  
C
Using the lever  
When you have finished trimming,  
clean the blades of hair clippings  
by quickly moving the lever from  
maximum to minimum with the  
appliance still on.  
You can continuously adjust the  
lever while trimming. This adjusts  
the trimming length without you  
having to attach a comb.  
When the lever is at the top, the  
cutting length is shortest. The further  
you push down the lever, the  
greater the cutting length.

With the lever right down, the  
cutting length is the same as with a  
3 mm comb attachment.  
Using the lever extends the life of  
the blades, because the cutting  
angle changes with each adjust-  
ment.  
If the blades are blocked by very  
thick hair, you can unblock them by  
moving the lever without having to  
remove the lower steel blade.

Useful tips  
7
Hold the appliance with a  
relaxed and comfortable grip.  
This product has been made from  
high-quality parts and materials  
which can be re-used and recycled.  
7
7
Always cut against the natural  
direction of the hair.  
Therefore, do not throw the product  
away with normal household waste  
at the end of its life. Take it to a col-  
lection point for recycling electrical  
and electronic devices. This is indi-  
cated by this symbol on the product,  
in the operating manual and on the  
packaging.  
As you cut, take a break at regu-  
lar intervals. You can always  
make a correction, but not once  
the hair has been cut.  
7
Only cut a small amount the first  
time you use the trimmer. This is  
the only way to get used to the  
variable grades.  
7
7
Do not force the comb through  
the hair. Let it guide you.  
Keep combing the hair. Only look  
for hair which is too long and  
comb out clippings.  
Please find out about collection  
points operated by your local  
authority.  
7
To ensure good results, the hair  
should be dry.  
Help protect the environment by  
recycling used products.
