Operation

Before Using, remove the plug of adapter from the mains power socket and remove the connect wire from body . We recommend to trim a small area first to familiarize yourself with the attachment comb.

Hair trimming

Make sure that the hair is clean and completely dry. Place a towel around the neck and shoulders of the person whosehair you are trimming. Make sure that the person is seated so that their head is roughly at your eye level. Before trimming, comb the hair so that it falls naturally and you can see the direction in which it grows.

  1. Place the cutting head on the person’s hair. Hold the clipper against the hair, the teeth of the clipper guide pointing upwards yet flat against the head.
  2. Move the cutting head against the direction of hair growth. Apply only a slight pressure when cutting with slow, gentle movements.

Useful tips

  • Move the clipper upwards and out wards through the hair, a little at a time, against the direction of hair growth.
  • The appliance will work most efficiently when cutting through the hair at its own speed. Never force the clipper through the hair. Never switch the clipper off whilst in the hair.
  • For longer hair on top of the head, hold the hair between the fingers and cut to the desired length. Always work from the front to the back of the head.
  • As you cut, take a break at regular intervals. You can always make a correction, but not once the hair has been cut.
  • Only cut a small amount the first time you use it. This is the only way to get used to the variable positions.
  • Keep combing the hair. Only look for hair which is too long and comb out clippings.

Beard trimming

  1. Place the cutting head (1) on the beard.
  2. Move the cutting head (1) against the direction of hair growth. Apply only a slight pressure when cutting with slow, gentle movements.

Useful tips

  • The combs are designed for easy removal of excess hair and clean the cutting head (1) with the brush supplied. Clean the appliance as described in the “Cleaning and Care” section.
  • For trimming contours, remove the detachable blade. Use the appliance without the combs (cutting length is 1.5 mm).

High speed setting button (2) (Turbo)

  • Device performance can be maximized by pushing the turbo button (2).

The usage of the BeardCare sensor

  • Never used liquids to clean the appliance. Use the cleaning brush provided and water only.
  • Remove any clippings after each use.
  • The cutting head of your appliance does not normally need to be oiled. If you want to maintain the original condition of the cutting head for as long as possible, it is worth oiling it at regular intervals (with the oil provided).

Using exclusively the cleaning brush, remove the hairs from the blade head. The blade head may be cleaned with water or other liquids. If in regular use, the blade head should be oiled . For this, use the supplied blade oil.
