Clipping with comb
The appliance comes with 2 combs for different hair lengths.

The settings correspond to the remaining hair length after clipping.
1 Select the comb you want to use.
The buzz comb cuts the hair to a length of 1mm.
The large comb cuts the hair to a length of 3mm to 21mm.
2 Slide the comb straight into the guiding grooves on both sides of the
handle (‘click’).
3 To set the comb to the desired setting, press the setting selector (1)
and slide the comb to the desired hair length setting (2).
,The settings in the window show the selected hair length in
millimetres after cutting.
Tip:Write down the hair length settings you selected to create a certain
hairstyle as a reminder for future clipping sessions.
4 Press the on/off button to switch on the appliance.
5 Move the appliance through the hair slowly.
Tips
- To clip most effectively, move the appliance against the hair growth
direction.
- Since all hair does not grow in the same direction, you need to move
the appliance in different directions (upwards, downwards and across).
- Make sure that the at part of the comb is always fully in contact with
the scalp to obtain an even result.
- Make overlapping passes over the head to ensure that you cut all the
hair that needs to be cut.
6 Regularly remove cut hair from the comb.
If a lot of hair has accumulated in the comb, remove the comb from the
appliance and blow and/or shake the hair out of it.

comb off the appliance.

the ears.
