Please carefully read the safety instructions before using the product.

IMPORTANT! Only use the adaptor and attachments supplied with this appliance.

Always inspect the appliance before use to ensure the clipper blades are free from hair, debris etc.
Use on clean, dry hair that has been combed until tangle-free.

For optimum cutting performance, it is highly recommended to oil the blades after every use.
When using the oil for the first time, unscrew the cap and cut off the very end of the plastic tube with a pair of scissors.
Remove the blade guard and switch the appliance on.
Holding the clipper at a 45 degree angle, gently squeeze the oil tube and apply 2 drops directly onto the blades.
Leave the unit on for a further few seconds to allow the oil to thoroughly spread along the length of the blades.
Switch off the unit and remove any excess oil by gently dabbing with a cloth before using on hair.

Before using the appliance for the first time, charge the battery continuously for 3 hours. Maximum battery capacity will only be reached after 3 completed charging and discharging cycles.
Plug the charging adapter into a suitable mains power socket and switch on at the wall. A blue LED light will continuously run up the product to indicate the clipper is charging. When the battery is fully charged the LED light will stop running up the product and all 5 charging lights will remain alight.
Note: Always charge the trimmer with the I/0 switch in the OFF position.
When the clipper is running low on charge, the bottom LED charging light will flash to warn there is approximately 5 minutes of battery use remaining. A 3 hour charge will provide 3 hours use. A 20 minute quick charge will provide approximately 20 minutes use.
If all five charging lights start to flash rapidly (more than 4 flashes per second) then the appliance is faulty. If this happens then please stop charging and remove the adapter from the mains.

This appliance is supplied with 10 comb guides:

To attach a comb guide, ensure the appliance is switched off. Position the comb guide over the front of the clipper blade and slide over the head. Push and click the rear of the comb guide into position.
To remove the comb guide, ensure the appliance is switched off. Push the tab on the rear of the comb guide away from the head and lift off.

The taper guides can be used above the ear to get a clean line.

Attach either the left or right guide depending on which ear you are cutting above.
Angle the clipper and gently stroke around the ear towards the back of the neck.

The taper control lever enables fine cut adjustment for precision clipping.
The blade cutting length without a comb guide is 0.8mm.

To increase the cutting length, push the lever down.
Each position will increase the length as below: Taper position 1 – + 0.0mm
Taper position 2 – + 0.2mm
Taper position 3 – + 0.3mm
Taper position 4 – + 0.5mm
Taper position 5 – + 0.6mm

In order to maintain the optimum capacity of the rechargeable batteries, the appliance should be recharged for 3 hours approximately every 6 months.

For an all over even cut

Attach a comb guide as required your clipper is supplied with 10 standard comb guides, lengths 1.5-25mm. Each comb guide is labelled.
Switch the clipper to the `I-ON’ position and the blades will start to move.
Starting at the nape of the neck, hold the clipper with the teeth of the comb guide pointing upwards, ensuring that the comb guide is resting flat against the head.
Slowly move the clipper upwards and outwards through the hair towards your crown, against the direction of the hair growth. The comb guide will help to lift the hair and the blades will cut the hair at the desired length .
Once the desired length is achieved at the back of the hair, start clipping the top and sides.
Hold the clipper to the front of your hair with the teeth pointing towards the back of your head, and move the clipper towards your crown. Repeat as necessary, moving in rows from the front and the sides of your head to the back.
You should achieve an even length cut all over your head.

Attach the longer comb guide as required for the top of your hair - your clipper is supplied with 10 standard comb guides, lengths 1.5- 25mm. Each comb guide is labelled.
Switch the clipper to the `I-ON’ position and the blades will start to move.
Hold the clipper to the front of your hair with the teeth pointing towards the back of your head and move the clipper towards your crown. Repeat as necessary, moving in rows from the front and the sides of your head to the back.
If you then wish to take the back and sides of your hair to a shorter length, switch off the appliance and attach a shorter comb guide.
Starting at the nape of the neck, with the comb guide flat against the head, move the clipper upwards and outwards over the area you want to take shorter.
Repeat on the sides of the hair, starting with the teeth of the clipper pointing upwards and comb guide flat against the area above the ear, again moving the clipper upwards and outwards.

To tidy up the edges around your cut e.g. neckline and sideburns, detach the comb guides.
Hold the appliance upside down, so the front of the clipper is facing towards your head.
Hold the clipper blades straight on your sideburns or neckline and move the clipper blades downwards. This will give you a clean, smooth finish.

To maintain optimum performance, the appliance should be cleaned after each use.
Blow away any remaining hair on the blades or use the cleaning brush provided.
Remove the comb guide. The comb guide can be rinsed under running water. Ensure they are dried thoroughly before storage or further use.
Do not disassemble the blades.
Oil the blades after every use to ensure optimum cutting performance.
