of the cutting element against your skin and
make strokes against the direction of hair
growth (Fig. 12).
2 For contouring, hold the cutting element
perpendicular to the skin and move it upwards
or downwards with gentle pressure (Fig. 13).

2 To trim the most effective way, move the comb
against the direction of hair growth. Make sure
the surface of the comb always stays in contact
with the skin.
Attachments for use on body
- Use the green body combs to trim body hair.
- When you trim for the first time, use the
5mm/3/16in. body comb to familiarize yourself
with the appliance.
- Make sure hair is clean and dry as wet hair
tends to stick to the body and, when trimming
sensitive areas, always use a body comb.
- Since all hairs do not grow in the same
direction, you may want to try different
trimming positions (i.e. upwards, downwards, or
across). Practice is best for optimum results.
- Always make smooth and gentle movements
and be sure the surface of the comb always
stays in contact with your skin.
