the relevant comb (fig.1 ref.14).

STYLING TIPS
SHORT STYLES
• We recommend starting with the longest cutting length and subsequently adjusting to a shorter
length, if desired.
• Cut hair while dry, using short strokes and progressing slowly.
• Comb the hair as you proceed in order to remove cut hair and check the results.
• NECK: Starting from the midpoint of the bottom of the neck work upwards using short strokes
towards the middle of the head (fig. 8), gradually working outwards to the sides.
• SIDES: We recommend using a shorter cutting length, using the same method as for the neck area.
To finish sideburns and the area around the ears, use the appliance without a guide comb, holding
it turned downwards.
• TOP: Use a longer cutting length. Start at the front and move backwards, towards the centre of the
head.
LONGER STYLES
• Use the same method, starting from the neck and working upwards, followed by the sides and then
the top of the head.
• To adjust the cutting length, use the barber's comb (fig.9), or else your fingers to help (fig.10), using
the appliance without a guide comb.
BEARD AND MOUSTACHE TRIMMING
• Decide on the kind of look you want to obtain, based on your face and the length of beard and
moustache.
• When trimming beard and moustache, start off with the comb attachment adjusted to a high setting,
and then move onto a shorter setting if so desired. A weekly trim will suffice to maintain the look.
• Define edges using the beard and moustache head (fig.1 ref.12), then use the shaver head (fig.1
ref.13) to finish.
• For best results, beard and moustache can be dampened (not wet), and brushed in the direction of
growth.
• Proceed to trim, working upwards from the bottom, beginning at the jaw and moving towards the ears.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The cleaning and maintenance procedure must be carried out after every use.
• Switch the appliance OFF and disconnect it from the mains supply before performing any
maintenance or changing any parts.
• Never immerse the appliance in water!
• After every use, remove the guide comb then use the small brush to eliminate any hair from the
cutting head and its seat.
• The guide comb must be removed from the appliance before being washed (fig. 13).
• After each use, remove the shaver head (fig.11) and clean the inside using the brush (fig.1 ref.22).
• Clean the outside of the appliance with a soft cloth (slightly damp if necessary). Never use solvents
or abrasive detergents!
• Remove the cutting head (fig. 6) and evenly oil the blades and the seat of the motor pin which is
located on the inside (fig. 12).
• If after prolonged use, and despite regular cleaning and lubrication, the cutting ability of the appliance
appears to be diminished, the cutting head must be replaced.

safeguarding of the environment.
