CUTTING WITH GUIDE COMBS

Depending on the type of cut desired, the appliance can be used with or without a guide comb. The guide combs can be adjusted to 13 different settings by means of the comb setting selector (fig.1 - ref.19) in order to allow different cut- ting lengths. The setting is visible on the comb setting reference (fig.1 - ref.18). Without a guide comb, the appliance has a cutting length of 1 mm.

FITTING AND REMOVING THE GUIDE COMB

• Switch the appliance off.

• Use the bottom button of the comb setting selector (fig.1 - ref.19) to retract the guide comb fully (fig.2) to setting 1, shown on the comb setting reference (fig.1 - ref.18).

• Grip the comb and pull as indicated in (fig.3) to remove it.

• To replace the comb, again with the appliance switched off and the selector to setting 1, fit the comb in the guide and click it into place (fig.4).

The ceramic blade set guarantees a perfect hair cut for long time without oiling. CHANGING BLADES

• Switch the appliance off.

• To remove a blade, push to release from the seat as shown in (fig.9).

• To refit a blade, follow the instructions in (fig.10): first insert the rear section in the seat (A), then push the front to secure in place (B). STYLING TIPS SHORT STYLES

• Choose the guide comb and, using the selector (fig.1 ref.19), adjust it to the best setting for the desired length of cut. We advise you begin from a higher setting and then move on to a lower setting as required.

• Cut hair while dry, using short strokes and progressing slowly.

• Comb the hair as you proceed in order to remove cut hair and check the results.

• NECK: Starting from the midpoint of the bottom of the neck (fig.5) work upwards using short strokes towards the middle of the head (fig.6), gradually working outwards to the sides.

• SIDES: We advise you use a lower setting, working in the same way as with the neck. To finish sideburns and the area around the ears, use the appliance without a guide comb, holding it turned downwards.

• TOP OF HEAD: Use a higher setting. Start from the forehead working backwards towards the middle of the head. 00060452 INTERNO 7-11-2005 14:43 Pagina 56 LONGER STYLES

• Use the same method, starting from the neck and working upwards, followed by the sides and then the top of the head.

• To adjust the cutting length, use the barber's comb (fig.7), or else your fingers to help (fig.8), using the appliance without a guide comb.

• The appliance comes supplied with a set of clips (fig.1 - ref.12) for sectioning very long hair and for cutting fringes.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

• The cleaning and maintenance procedure must be carried out after every use.

• All maintenance or blade change operations must be carried out with the appliance switched OFF and removed from the charger.

• Never immerse the appliance in water!

• After every use, remove the guide comb then use the small brush to elimina- te any hair from the cutting head and its seat.

• Clean the outside of the appliance with a soft cloth (slightly damp if neces- sary). Never use solvents or abrasive detergents!

• Remove the cutting head (fig.9) and evenly oil the seat of the motor pin which is located on the inside.

• If after prolonged use, and despite regular cleaning and lubrication, the cut- ting ability of the appliance appears to be diminished, the cutting head must be replaced.

• Once the appliance has been cleaned, the guide comb can be fitted back in place since it also helps to protect the blade.

• Do not oil the ceramic blade set. DISPOSAL
