Hair trimming
Make sure the hair is clean and
completely dry.
Place a towel around the neck and
shoulders of the person whose hair
you are trimming. Make sure the
person is seated so that his or her
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 Adjust the trimming length; see
the “Setting the trimming length”
section.
2 Push the On/Off switch
B
to
switch on the appliance.

on
the hair.

against
the direction of hair growth. Apply

slow, gentle movements.

with the On/Off switch B.
Useful tips
7
Hold the appliance with a relaxed and comfortable grip.

Always cut against the natural
direction of the hair.
As you cut, take a break at
regular intervals. Once the hair

Only cut a small amount the first
time you use the trimmer. This is
the only way to get used to the
variable positions.
7
Comb the hair continuously
while trimming. Look for hair
which is too long and comb out
clippings.
