8 - MAINTENANCE
• The clipper needs very little maintenance. You can clean it with a slightly damp cloth
• It is recommended that you clean the cutting head after each usage with the brush (Fig. 9).
For this turn the cutting wheel to position 5
• To clean the comb, remove it and clear away the hair with the brush (Fig. 10).
For a very detailed clean, push the cutting head back (Fig. 11). Remove the hair with the brush
(Fig. 12-13-14) then replace the cutting head:
Important, make sure the cutting head is properly attached when you refit it (Fig. 15)

you to place these batteries in a specially designed waste recovery centre
(waste collection centre). Do not throw away these batteries with the household waste.
11 - IN THE EVENT OF PROBLEMS
• The clipper won't start (rechargeable model in autonomous mode): have you recharged
the batteries?
• The comb won't fit onto the clipper: have you respected the assembly instructions?
(see paragraph 6)
• Your clipper no longer has enough autonomy: have you charged the batteries enough?
If yes, change them.
12 - TIPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL HAIRCUT
• Use the hair trimmer on clean, dry hair
• Dry the hair in the direction of the hairstyle you wish to obtain
• Position the person whose hair you are going to cut in such a way as to be able to see
the top of his/her head (Fig. 20)
• Before starting a cut, examine the hollows and bumps on the head, which are often located at the
nape of the neck (if you place the trimmer directly against a bump, you will obtain a lighter area).
• At the beginning, only cut a small quantity of hair, until you are familiar with the length
left by each comb.
• Never stop the trimmer in mid-stroke.
• Start with the comb with the highest number (i.e. the one which leaves the most hair) before
using another comb.
