• Do not connect the appliance to the mains without checking that the voltage indicated in
the rating label and that of your household are the same.
• Do not use it near the water contained in bathtubs, wash basins or other containers.
• Keep out of the reach of children.
• Keep away from any sources of heat.
• Do not use it if the cutting guides have cracks or the blade does not have all the teeth in
perfect condition. They could be the cause of serious injuries.
• Do not leave on clothes or any other object while in use, in order to avoid possible blockage.
It must not be left connected on flat surfaces such as tables or counter tops, as the vibration

• This appliance has been designed for domestic use only.
• If you are using it in a bathroom, it is advisable to install in the electrical circuit of the
bathroom a residual differential current device (DDR) of differential current of assigned
capacity that does not exceed 30 mA. Ask your supplier for advice.
• VERY IMPORTANT: The hair clippers, the adapter and the base must never be immersed in
water.
• It must not be used outdoors.
• If the cable were to deteriorate it must be changed by an Authorised Service Centre.
LUBRIFICATION
• For the hair clipper to work correctly it is absolutely necessary to lubricate the blades
with oil before each use.
• Carefully pour a few drops of oil, which is provided, between
the teeth of the blade, or if you have run out, with another high
quality, acid free oil.
• Turn the hair clipper on for a few seconds and clean the excess
oil off with a cloth.
CUTTING GUIDES
• The hair clipper is equipped with four cutting guides which
allow for a accurate height of cut in four different lengths (3-7-
9 and 12 mm.)
• To assemble the chosen guide place it in the blade and press
the bottom flange of the guide to be inserted.
BEGINNING THE CUT
• Relax and work slowly. Make short cuts. Do not go on to the
final cut of one side or the back straight away. Work gradually
and all over the head.
• It is better to cut a little each time to be able to cut some more
later on.
• While you are working and before you begin, comb the hair
frequently to the chosen style.
• It is better to cut the hair when it is dry, not wet. It is easier
to see and control the amount of hair you are cutting.
• The first time you use the appliance it is advisable to cut a small portion of hair until you
get used to the different lengths of the guides. At first use the guide which allows the longer
cutting length (guide 12 mm.). With a little practice you will soon choose the most adequate
guide for the length you wish to have.
• After combing your hair following its natural direction, proceed as follows to obtain a
perfect hair cut.
First step: NAPE
• Set the guide to the position corresponding to lowest length of cut (3 mm). Start cutting
at the centre of the nape and at the bottom of the neck. Hold the hair clippers softly against
the head with the teeth of the guide pointing upwards.
• Go up gradually, working your way upwards and outwards, just cutting a little hair at a time.
When cutting raise the head of the clippers towards you little by little. Continue cutting at
the back of the head from the base of nape to the area just above the ears (Zone "A" of the
figure).
