1 Comb your hair with a styling comb in the
direction of hair growth. (Fig. 3)

Make sure that the arms of the comb have been properly
slid into the grooves on both sides.

Tips
- Start clipping at the highest length setting of the
hair clipping comb and reduce the length setting
gradually.
- Write down the length settings you have used to
create a certain hairstyle as a reminder for future
clipping sessions.
- To clip in the most effective way, move the appliance
against the direction of hair growth.
- Since hair grows in different directions, you need
to move the appliance in different directions as well
(upward, downward or across) (Fig. 7).
- Make overlapping passes over the head to ensure
that the appliance catches all the hairs that need to
be cut.
- Make sure that the flat part of the hair clipping comb
is fully in contact with the scalp to obtain an even
clipping result.
- To achieve a good result with curly, sparse or long
hair, you can use a styling comb to guide the hair
towards the appliance.
- Regularly remove cut hair from the hair clipping
comb. If a lot of hair has accumulated in the comb,
remove it from the appliance and blow and/or shake
the hair out of it.
Clipping without hair clipping comb
You can use the appliance without hair clipping comb
to clip your hair very close to the skin (0.8mm) or to
contour the neckline and the area around the ears.
1 To remove the hair clipping comb, press the length
setting selector (1), move the comb upwards and
then pull it off the appliance (2). (Fig. 8)
2 Comb the hair ends over the ears before you start
to contour the hairline.
3 Slide the on/off slide upwards to switch on the
appliance (Fig. 6).
4 Tilt the appliance in such a way that only one
edge of the cutting element touches the hair
ends. (Fig. 9)
5 Only cut the hair ends. The hairline has to be close
to the ear.
6 To contour the neckline and the sideburns, turn the
appliance and make downward strokes (Fig. 10).
7 Move the appliance slowly and smoothly. Follow the
natural hairline.
