The cutting length can be adjusted to between 0.7mm and 3mm (5 possible positions) using the cutting-length adjustment integrated into the blade set (Fig. 5).

CUTTING WITH THE ATTACHMENT COMB

The appliance can also be operated with attachment combs. In order to achieve the indicated cutting length, the cutting length adjustment lever should be set

CARE AND CLEANING

Danger! Electric shock due to penetration of liquid.

►Switch the appliance off and disconnect from the power supply, before you start with cleaning and care.

►Do not immerse the appliance in water!

►Do not allow any liquid to get inside the appliance.

►Only reconnect the appliance to the power supply if it is completely dry.

Handle with care! 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 recommended by the manufacturer.

Hygienic spray and blade oil are available from your wholesaler or direct from our customer service.

Remove the attachment comb (Fig. 6b) after every use and lift the blade set out of the housing (Fig. 7a). Use the cleaning brush to remove any cut hairs from

the housing opening and from the blade set (Fig. 8). The cleaning lever can also be pressed. This allows the cut hairs that accumulate between the bottom

blade and the top blade to be easily removed using the cleaning brush (EASY CLEANING).

Only wipe the appliance with a soft, slightly damp cloth.

The blade set can be cleaned by using the hygienic spray.

Oil the blade set with the blade set oil (Fig. 9).

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.

AUTOMATIC SENSOR SYSTEM

To give you advance notice of an urgent need for maintenance care, your hair cutting appliance has been equipped with an automatic sensor system.

The sensor system automatically recognises when the blade set needs oiling or cleaning. After the appliance is switched off, an acoustic signal will sound and

the battery power indicator will ash for 2 minutes. The acoustic signal and the ashing of the battery power indicator can be cancelled (turned off) by briey

switching the appliance on and off.

Before using the appliance again, it is strongly recommended to clean the appliance and oil the blade set.

Failure to observe these instructions may result in damage to and early failure of the appliance, which will void all guarantee claims.

CHANGING THE BLADE SET

Warning! Injuries and material damage due to incorrect handling.

►Switch the appliance off and disconnect from the power supply before changing the blade set.

1. Switch the appliance off using the on/off switch (Fig. 3b) and disconnect from the power supply.

2. Slide the blade set off the housing in the direction of the arrow (Fig. 7a). Remove the blade set.

3. Replace the blade set by hooking it into the housing and pressing it down until it clicks into position (Fig. 7b).

PROBLEM ELIMINATION

Blade set is cutting badly or pulling hair out.

Cause: Blade set is dirty or worn out.

►Clean and oil the blade set (Fig. 8/9); if this does not resolve the problem, replace the blade set (Fig. 7).

Battery life is too short.

Carefully clean and oil the blade set (Fig. 8/9). A blade set that is very dirty and has not been oiled can halve the available battery life! If the blade set is clean

and oiled and the battery life is still far too short, it is likely that the batteries are nearing the end of their life.

Battery life generally decreases at a steady rate when the appliance is used on a day-to-day basis. The batteries used here are specially designed for

Battery power indicator light does not light up.

Cause: Appliance has not been correctly placed on the charging stand.

►Ensure that the hand-held appliance has been correctly placed on the charging stand.

Cause: Defective power supply.

►Ensure that the power supply unit is plugged into the mains

►socket.

►Check the mains cable for possible damage.

►Check the power supply.
