 3   Turn the Adjustable Wheel Hair Length 

Setting Selector to the desired setting (fig. 7). 

The Clipper can cut hair up to 24 different 

lengths. See table below.  

 4  The remaining hair length is indicated in  

    millimeters on the adjustable wheel.  

When you are clipping for the first time,  

start at the maximum clipping length setting 

(23mm/7/8 in.) to familiarize yourself with the 

appliance and prevent accidentally trimming 

hairs too short. As you become familiar with the 

settings, adjust the Hair Length Selector to desired 

trimming length.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 5  Make sure that the flat part of the comb is  

    always in full contact with the scalp to obtain  

    an even result (fig. 8).  

 6  Since all hairs do not grow in the same  

    direction, move the appliance slowly over the  

    crown from different directions (i.e. upwards, 

    downwards and across) to achieve an even  

   result. 

 7  Always move the appliance against the    

  direction of hair growth. 

 8   Make overlapping passes over the head to 

ensure that all hair that should be cut has 

been cut. 

 9  For best results with curly, sparse or long  

    hair, use a styling comb to guide the hair  

    towards the Clipper. 

 10  Switch the Clipper off regularly during 

clipping and remove the hair clipping comb 

to blow and/or shake out hair that has 

accumulated. 

TIP: Write down the settings you have used to create 

a certain hairstyle as a reminder for future clipping 

sessions. 

  Clipping without hair clipping comb

w

 Use the Clipper without a comb to clip hair 

very close to the skin (0.5mm/1/32 inch) or to 

contour the neckline and area around the ears. 

 1  Remove the hair clipping comb by pressing  

    and sliding the comb off the Clipper (fig. 9).

Be careful when you are clipping without comb 

attachment as when the Clipper is turned on it 

will remove every hair it touches. 

 2  To contour the hairline around the ears,  

    comb the hair ends over the ears. 

 3  Tilt the Clipper in such a way that only  

    one edge of the cutter blades touches the  

    hair ends when you shape the contours    

    around the ears. 

Only cut the hair ends. The hairline should be 

close to the ear. 

  4   To contour the nape of the neck or  

 

  sideburns, turn the Clipper and make  

 

  downward strokes (fig. 10). 

 5  Move the Clipper slowly and smoothly  

    following the natural hairline.

 

Cleaning

w

 Clean the attachments after each use.

w

 Always switch Clipper OFF, unplug and remove 

power supply cord from Clipper before 

cleaning.

w

 Do not use compressed air, abrasive cleaning  

  agents, scourers or aggressive liquids such as  

  alcohol, benzene, bleach or acetone to clean  

  the Clipper and attachments.

w

 Never clean, replace or remove Clipper 

attachments with motor ON.

w

 Never rinse or immerse the Clipper in water 

or any other liquid.

w

 Do not apply pressure to cutters.

  may damage them.

Put  It To The Test

Like many new products, your Philips Norelco Hair 

Clipper may take a little getting used to. If you are 

using an electric Clipper for the first time, or if 

you’ve been using a different brand, take the time 

to acquaint yourself with your new Hair Clipper.

 

Your Hair Clipper features a double-sharpened 

cutting element with reduced friction as well as 

Turbo power to boost cutting speed for a perfect 

cut even on the thickest hair. 

 

Throw your scissors away and put your new  

Hair Clipper to the test. We guarantee precise 

results or Philips Norelco will refund you the full 

purchase price as long as the request is received 

within 45 days of purchase.
