Guarantee
Your appliance is intended for home and personal use only. It may not be used for pro-
fessional purposes. In the event of improper use the guarantee will become null and void.
3 - Preparing your skin
Your skin must be clean and dry.
• Do not use any cream or moisturiser before your start the epilation.
• If you used to remove hair growth using a razor:
• On the first few times that you remove hair growth, you may feel that your skin is more
sensitive, because the hair growth will have become thicker and tougher as a result of
using a razor. This feeling will diminish as you start using your epilator: the hairs will
grow back less vigorously and will become finer.
• Your epilator will be more effective and easier to use if you use it regularly.
We recommend that you start epilating as soon as the hairs start coming through again.

6 - Epilating
• To get the best out of your epilator we recommend that you tilt it slightly towards your
skin, in the direction you’re going to epilate, as shown in the diagram (fig. 3).
• Push the switch to “2”. The switch should always be facing you during use (fig. 4).
• Epilate against the direction of hair growth, slowly and without applying pressure.
7 - Epilation in sensitive areas
• For the best possible epilation we recommend that you place your epilator lightly up
against the skin, in the direction you’re going to epilate, as shown in the diagram (fig. 3).
• Preparing the area to be epilated:
- Pre-cut the hairs which are too long, more than 1 cm in length.
