4 Switch on the appliance (Fig. 12).
5 To trim most effectively, move the appliance
against the hair growth direction. Make sure
that the surface of the comb always stays in
contact with the skin (Fig. 15).
Since all hairs do not grow in the same
direction, you may want to try different
trimming positions (i.e. upwards, downwards, or
across). Practice is best for optimum results.
6 If a lot of hair has accumulated in the comb,
remove it from the appliance and blow and/or
shake out the hairs. Regularly remove cut hair
from the comb. The selected hair length setting
does not change when the comb is removed.
7 Switch off and clean the appliance and
attachments after each use.
Trimming without comb
If you trim without the comb, your hair is cut off
close to the skin (0.4mm). You can use the
trimming head without the comb to:
- Define hair line
- Trim nape of neck
- Remove single unwanted hairs
1 Make sure the product is switched off.
2 Pull the comb off the product (Fig. 17).
-
Never pull at the flexible top of the comb.
Always pull at the sides.
3 Turn on the product.
4 Make well-controlled movements. Touch the
hair lightly with the trimmer.
-
For a comfortable trim close to your skin,
place the flat side of the trimming head
against your skin and make strokes in the
desired direction (Fig. 18).
-
For contouring, hold the trimming head
perpendicular to the skin and move the
trimming head upwards or downwards with
gentle pressure (Fig. 19).
5 Turn off and clean the product after each use
(see 'Cleaning').
Precision trimmer
Use the precision trimmer to create fine lines and
contours around your facial style, close to the skin
(to a length of 1/32in./0.5mm).
1 Hold the precision trimming head perpendicular
to the skin and move the trimming head
upwards or downwards with gentle pressure
(Fig. 16).
