position
of
the
cutting
element
to
the
part
of

you
are
clipping
(Fig.

El
Turn
the
rotating
head
left
or right
to
the
desired
clipping
position.At
each
position
you
will
hear
a

in
full
contact
with
the
scalp
to
obtain
an
even
result.
Ed
Since
all
hairs
do
not
grow
in
the
same
direction,
move
the
Clipper
slowly over
the
crown
from
different
directions
(i.e.
upwards,
downwards
and
across)
to
achieve
an
even
result
(Fig.
11).
[Tl
Always
move
the
Clipper
slowly
against
the
direction
of
hair
growth.
Make
overlapping
passes over
the
head
to
ensure
that
all
hair
that
should
be
cut
has
been
cut.
EB
As
you
clip
different
areas
of
your
head,
adjust
the
position
of
the
swivel
head
so
that
the
rotating
head
position
is
most
comfortable
for
you.
EE
For
best
results
with
curly,
sparse
or
long
hair,
use
a
styling
comb
to
guide
the
hair
towards
the
Clipper.
HD
Turn
the
Clipper
off
regularly
during
clipping
and
remove
the
hair
comb
to
blow
and/or
shake
out
hair
that
has
accumulated.
When
you
remove
the
comb,
the
selected
setting
does
not
change.
