from the mains adapter.
• Never immerse the appliance in water!
• After every use, remove the guide comb then use the small brush to eliminate any hair from the cutting head and its seat.
• Clean the outside of the appliance with a soft cloth (slightly damp if necessary). Never use solvents or abrasive
detergents!
• Remove the cutting head (fig.5) and evenly oil the blades and the seat of the motor pin which is located on the inside.

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.
