SEVERIN HS 0707 Mode D'emploi page 10

Operation
∙ Before cutting, the hair should be clean
and thoroughly combed fi rst.
∙ When cutting longer hair, use a push-on
comb or cut hair above a normal comb.
∙ Always start with the largest push-on
comb, as this will help you to get a feel for
cutting the hair to the desired length.
∙ For shorter hair-cuts, follow-up with a
smaller push-on comb or without any
comb attachment.
∙ Insert the plug into a wall outlet and turn
the appliance on.
∙ Cut from bottom to top with the trimming
comb lying against the head; lead the
appliance upwards through the hair,
moving it gradually away from the head at
the same time.
∙ The tapered trimming heads are designed
for cutting the hair around the ears while
avoiding a 'stepped' effect. For the right
side of the head, the attachment marked
'Right Taper' should be used; for the
opposite side use the one marked 'Left
Taper'. Start trimming from the back of the
head and cut the hair against its natural
direction of growth towards the temples.
∙ For a shaped cut, reverse the appliance
and shorten the hair from top to bottom
without a push-on comb.
∙ Always switch off after use and remove
the plug from the wall socket.
Care and Cleaning
∙ It is essential to switch off the unit and
remove the plug from the wall socket
before cleaning and oiling.
∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, the
appliance must not be immersed in liquid
or even allowed to come into contact with
liquid.
10
∙ Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning
solutions.
∙ If necessary, the housing may be wiped
with a dry, lint-free cloth.
Trimming comb and trimming blade
∙ After each use, use the cleaning brush
to remove the hair between the trimming
comb and the trimming blade.
∙ After cleaning, and also after the
appliance has been used for approx.
20 minutes, put a few drops of acid-free
oil between the trimming comb and
the trimming blade and then switch
the appliance briefl y on to ensure that
the oil is well and evenly distributed.
Regular oiling will guarantee good cutting
performance over a long period and thus
a long service life.
∙ When the appliance is not in use, put the
protective cover over the trimming comb.
