Mains operation
Caution! Damage due to use of the appliance with the plug-in transformer
permanently plugged in (mains operation)
The appliance is not designed to be used with the plug-in transformer
permanently plugged in (mains operation). The plug-in transformer connecting
cable is not designed for mechanical stress in continuous operation. Mains
operation is only recommended for short periods of use, in the event of an
empty battery.

- Connect the plug-in transformer to the mains socket (Fig. 2ⓑ).
- Switch on the appliance using the on/off switch and switch off after use (Fig. 3ⓐ/ⓑ).
Cutting with attachment comb
The appliance can also be operated with an attachment comb.
- The attachment comb has 5 detent positions for adjusting the cut-ting length.
- The further the attachment comb is pushed onto the blade set, the shorter the cutting length.
The cutting length can be adjusted from 3 mm (Fig. 5ⓐ) to 6 mm (Fig. 5ⓑ).
Attaching/removing the attachment comb
- Slide the attachment comb onto the blade set (Fig. 4ⓐ) in the direction of the arrow until it locks in place.
- The attachment comb can be removed by pushing it in the direc-tion of the arrow (Fig. 4ⓑ).
Maintenance
Warning! Injuries and material damage due to incorrect handling. Switch off the appliance before cleaning it or performing any maintenance and disconnect it from the mains.
Cleaning and care
Danger! Electric shock due to penetration of liquid.
- Do not immerse the appliance in water!
- Do not allow any liquid to get inside the appliance.
Caution! Danger from aggressive chemicals. Aggressive chemicals could damage the appliance and accessories.
- Never use solvents or scouring agents.
- Only use cleaning agents and blade set oil recom-mended by the manufacturer.
Accessories and spare parts are available from your dealer or our service centre.
- Remove the attachment comb (Fig. 4ⓑ) and lift the blade set out of the housing (Fig. 6ⓐ). Use the cleaning brush to remove any cut hairs from the housing opening and from the blade set (Fig. 7).
- Only wipe the appliance with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
- Oil the blade set with blade set oil (Fig. 8).
- For a good and long-lasting cutting performance, it is important to oil the blade set frequently.
- If the cutting performance deteriorates after long use despite regular cleaning and oiling, the blade set should be replaced.
Changing the blade set
- Slide the blade set off the housing in the direction of the arrow (Fig. 6ⓐ). Remove the blade set.
- Replace the blade set by hooking it into the housing and pressing it down until it clicks into position (Fig. 6ⓑ).
Problem solving
Blade set is cutting badly or pulling hair out.
Cause: Blade set is dirty or worn out.
Clean and oil the blade set. If this does not resolve the problem, replace the
blade set.
Skin injury
Cause: Too much pressure on the skin.
Reduce pressure when cutting close to skin.
Cause: Damaged blade set.
Check whether the blade edges were damaged during use and replace the blade
set if necessary.
Battery operating time is too short
Cause: A blade set that is very dirty and has not been oiled can reduce
the available battery operating time substantially!
Carefully clean and oil the blade set. If the blade set is clean and oiled and
the battery operating time is still far too short, it is likely that the
batteries are nearing the end of their life.
Charging indicator does not light up
Cause: appliance socket is dirty.
Clean the appliance socket.
Cause: Defective power supply.
- Make sure that there is a faultless contact between the plug-in transformer and the socket.
- Check the mains cable for possible damage.
In the event that this information does not help you resolve your problem, please contact our service centre. Never attempt to repair the appliance yourself!
