Switch on the hair & beard trimmer by pressing the on/off button (3).
Always switch on the hair & beard trimmer first before you start cutting. This will
prevent the blades from getting blocked.
Position the hair & beard trimmer such that the surface of the blade block (1) can move
parallel to the skin. Always run the hair & beard trimmer evenly through the hair as much
as possible. If the hair & beard trimmer is positioned differently, this can affect the set
cutting lengths.
To avoid injury or skin irritation when cutting folds of the skin or areas with thinner
skin, you should stretch the skin with your fingers as necessary.
Beginning cutting your hair at the neck or sides and move towards the middle of the
head. Then cut the front section of the hair, also towards the middle of the head.
Ideally, it is best to cut against the direction of hair growth.
To ensure you don’t miss any hair, move the hair & beard trimmer across the same hair
sections several times.
We also recommend that you occasionally comb your hair in between.
For cutting lengths over 12 mm, you may want to run the hair & beard trimmer through
the hair several times from different directions. This will give you an even cutting line.
When a comb attachment (12) is attached, the hair is shortened to the chosen length.
The comb attachments (12) need to be fitted so that the teeth of the comb attachments
(12) are pointing in the direction in which the hair & beard trimmer moves. You can also
use the cutting length adjustment switch (2) (0.8 mm, 1.5 mm, 2.2 mm, 2.8 mm)
to make a fine adjustment.
Without a comb attachment (12), the hair is cut at a length of 0.8 mm and 2.8 mm. Use
the cutting length adjustment switch (2) (0.8 mm, 1.5 mm, 2.2 mm, 2.8 mm) to set
the cutting length you require.
The following table provides an overview of the cutting lengths you can set using the cutting
length adjustment switch (2) combined with a comb attachment (12).
