Operation
Before using for the first time
Fitting and removing the heads
Fitting:
To fit the shaving or trimming head, insert
the metal pin on the underside of the head
into the corresponding middle hole on the
main unit. Then press the head on until it
locks audibly into place.
Removing:
To remove the head, push the release
buttons on the appliance and pull the head
off.
Trimming head
The trimming head can be fitted to the
appliance in two different positions. The side
with the wider blade is used for hair, while
the narrower blade is used for the beard.
The blade being used must be facing
upwards when fitted.
Shaving head
The shaving head is designed for regular
shaving.
Each time the shaving blade unit or the foils
are used, they should be thoroughly
examined for any signs of damage. In the
event of such damage being found, the
shaving head must no longer be used.
Adjusting the cutting length
The push-on attachment combs supplied
allow for an 8-fold cutting length adjustment.
The push-on combs have the following sizes:
3mm, 6mm, 9.5mm, 13mm, 16mm, 19mm,
22mm, 25mm.
The push-on combs are fitted over the
trimming comb. Remove the push-on combs
after use.
A few remarks on cutting hair
● Before each use, always put a few drops
of acid-free oil between the trimming
comb and the trimming blade (picture I).
-
Always start with the largest push-on
comb.
-
The hair should first be combed, and
then generally cut against its natural
direction.
-
For longer hair-cuts use a push-on comb
or a normal comb.
-
Cut from bottom to top with the
trimming comb lying against the head;
lead the appliance upwards through the
hair, moving it gradually away from the
head at the same time.
-
For a shaped cut, reverse the appliance
and shorten the hair from top to bottom
without using the push-on comb.
-
Proceed in the same manner for
trimming a beard.
A few remarks on shaving
-
We recommend shaving before washing
or taking a shower, as the skin will swell
slightly after washing.
-
Move the shaving head at right angles
(90°) to the skin against the natural
growth of the beard, while tightening the
skin with your fingers.
Cleaning and Care
General
● It is essential to switch off the appliance
and remove the adaptor from the wall
socket before cleaning and oiling.
● For safety reasons, the electric hair
trimmer and the adaptor must not be
immersed in liquid or even allowed to
come into contact with liquid.
-
If necessary, the housing may be wiped
with a smooth dry cloth.
Trimming head
-
After each use, remove the hair between
the trimming comb and the trimming
blade with the cleaning brush. The
trimming head can be removed for
cleaning by pushing the release buttons
and then pulling the head off.
● After cleaning, and also after the
appliance has been used for approx. 25
