Corded clipping

When the rechargeable battery is empty, you can also run

  1 

 Comb the hair with the styling comb in the 

direction of hair growth. 

  2 

 Choose whether you want to use the large or small 

comb, depending on the desired hair length. 

Use the small comb for a hair length of 3-21mm and use 

the large comb for a hair length of 24-42mm.

  3 

 Slide the comb into the guiding grooves of the 

appliance (‘click’) (Fig. 4).

Make sure that the arms of the comb have been slid 

properly into the grooves on both sides.

  4 

 Press the setting selector (1) and slide the comb 

to the desired hair length setting (2). Then release 

the setting selector to lock the hair length 

setting (Fig. 5).
hair length settings

 - The settings are shown on the arms of the comb. 

The settings correspond to the remaining hair length 

after cutting (Fig. 6).

 - The small comb cuts the hair to a length of 3mm, 

6mm, 9mm, 12mm, 15mm, 18mm or 21mm.

 - The large comb cuts the hair to a length of 24mm, 

27mm, 30mm, 33mm, 36mm, 39mm or 42mm.

  5 

 Switch on the appliance (Fig. 7).

  6 

 Move the appliance through the hair slowly.

 - Start clipping at the highest hair length setting of the 

comb and reduce the hair length setting gradually.

 - Write down the hair length settings you use to 

create a certain hairstyle as a reminder for future 

clipping sessions.

 - To clip most effectively, move the appliance against 

the hair growth direction. 

 - Try different directions (upward, downward or 

across), because hair doesn’t all grow in the same 

direction.

 - Make overlapping passes over the head to ensure 

that the appliance catches all the hairs that need to 

be cut.

 - Make sure that the flat part of the comb is fully in 

contact with the scalp to obtain an even cutting 

result.

 - To achieve a good result with curly, sparse or long 

hair, you can use the styling comb to guide the hair 

towards the appliance.

 - Regularly remove cut hair from the comb. If a lot of 

hair has accumulated in the comb, remove it from the 

appliance and blow and/or shake the hair out of it. 
Clipping without comb

You can use the clipper without comb to contour the 

neckline and the area around the ears.

The comb keeps the cutting unit at a certain distance 

from the head. This means that, if you use the clipper 

without the comb, the hair is cut off very close to the skin.

  1 

 Press and hold the setting selector (1) with one 

hand and pull the comb off the appliance (2) with 

your other hand (Fig. 8).

Never pull at the flexible top of the comb. Always pull at 

the bottom part.

  2 

 Before you start to contour the hairline round the 

ears, comb the hair ends over the ears.

  3 

 Tilt the appliance in such a way that only one edge 

of the cutting element touches the hair ends. 

  4 

 Only cut the hair ends. The hairline has to be close 

to the ear. 

  5 

 To contour the neckline and sideburns, turn the 

appliance and make downward strokes. 

  6 

 Move the appliance slowly and smoothly. Follow the 

natural hairline.
graduation

The Philips hair clipper not only allows you to cut the hair 

evenly at the same length all over the head, it also enables 

you to achieve a smooth transition from longer hair on 

top of the head to shorter hair on the back and sides of 

the head.

  1 

 Slide the large comb into the guiding grooves of the 

appliance (‘click’) (Fig. 4).

  2 

 Start clipping at the setting for maximum hair 

length (42mm). 

  3 

 Then choose a shorter setting and cut the hair on 

all parts of the head, except for the top, where you 

want the hair to be longer.

  4 

 Repeat this procedure until all hairs have the 

desired length.
Cutting over styling comb or fingers

This technique can be used to obtain hair lengths over 

42mm. Bear in mind that this technique is difficult to 

master and should only be applied by experienced users.

  1 

 Press and hold the setting selector (1) with one 

hand and pull the comb off the appliance (2) with 

your other hand (Fig. 8).

Never pull at the flexible top of the comb. Always pull at 

the bottom part.

  2 

 Comb a small section of hair upwards.  

  3 

 Lift the hair with the styling comb and hold it 

between your fingers until only the length that 

needs to be cut sticks out. 

  4 

 Cut the hair protruding from the comb or fingers. 

  5 

 Continue this procedure and comb frequently to 

remove cut hair and to check for unevenly cut 

sections.
Cleaning

Clean the appliance every time you have used it.
