USING THE CUTTING GUIDES

Very practical, the cutting guide guarantees equal cutting length. IMPORTANT: Always attach the cutting guide BEFORE turning the trimmer on, and turn it off before changing the guide.

To attach the cutting guide, first adjust the cutting length to 3mm and push on the guide until you hear a ‘click’. (Fig. 2)

• Begin at the nape. Place the guide on the scalp and move the clipper toward the crown of your head. Move your clipper slowly, pointing the teeth of the guide slightly upward. Keep the clipper in contact with your head at all times. (Fig. 4)
• For the crown of the head, move from front to back, that is, from your forehead to the crown of your head.
• For the finishing touches, that is, around the nape and sideburns, use the clipper without a cutting guide. Turn your clipper over and move it from top to bottom. (Fig. 5) To remove the cutting guide, first adjust the cutting length to 15mm or 30mm and push up on the guide with your thumbs holding both sides of the unit. (Fig. 3) NOTE: The precision guide adjusted manually and independently of the graduated screen.

TURNING ON AND USING

To adjust the trimmer’s cutting length, push the button (6) up or down. The length selected is displayed by a LED: - Red LED for lengths between 3 and 15mm - Green LED for lengths between 18 and 30mm. Switch the ON/OFF button. You can change the cutting length at any time.

• If you want a length greater than 30 mm, or if you are experienced, you can create ‘comb’ or ‘finger’ cuts: - Work without a cutting guide. - Take up a small section of hair with a comb or in your fingers. - Move the comb or your fingers along the section of hair to the desired length. - Cut your hair along the comb or your fingers. - Remove the cut hair using a comb and check the evenness of the cut regularly. (Fig. 6)

CUTTING TECHNIQUES AND

ADVICE FROM THE EXPERTS

• Use the clipper on clean, dry hair.
• To familiarize yourself with the clipper, begin with the cutting guide for a longer cut, then, if you want a shorter cut, adjust it by pushing the knob. You will soon know the lengths of each guide and each position.
• Always move the clipper against the direction of hair growth. Using the thinning guide Switch the clipper to the ‘THIN’ position. The thinning guide is in front of the blades. This technique allows you to thin out hair to make styling easier.

The technique is particularly good for the crown of the head where hair is usually thicker. To thin you hair, take a section of hair (rest your little and ring fingers on your scalp, using the middle and index fingers to set the length), hold 1 to 2 cm below the cutting length. Then, using the clipper, cut the section of hair steeply and at an angle to create a saw-toothed ‘edge’. Carefully squeeze a few drops of BaByliss oil onto the pad. (Fig. 8) Then put the blades back on the clipper. BaByliss oil is specially formulated for clippers, it will not evaporate or slow the blades down. You can get new blades when these are worn or damaged. MAINTENANCE Remove the cutting guide after each use. Cleaning the clipper blades regularly will maintain their optimal performance. Removable blades To make cleaning easier, the BaByliss clipper blades can be removed. Make sure the clipper is turned off. Hold the clipper with the blades pointing up and remove them by pressing the top of the blade. (Fig. 7) Brush the blades using the cleaning brush to remove any hair. Self-lubricating blades The blades of your clipper have a reservoir pad that dispenses the amount of oil necessary for your clipper to operate properly, every time. It is nevertheless recommended that you occasionally refill, when you notice the clipper isn’t performing as well. Remove the blades as described above.
