procedure at least twice a year.

Using the appliance

The hair length settings are indicated in millimeters,

the comb cuts the hair to a length of 1mm to 23mm.

The settings correspond to the remaining hair length

after trimming.

Warning: Be careful when you trim for the rst

time. Do not move the trimmer too fast. Make

smooth and gentle movements.

reduce the length setting gradually until you have

reached the desired hair length.
