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

smooth and gentle movements.
Tip: Start trimming at a high length setting and
reduce the length setting gradually until you have
reached the desired hair length.
