Keep gel pack out of sunlight and not
use if damaged. Dispose of gel pack in
household waste. Do not use if you are

Preparing the epilator
• Before starting off, thoroughly clean the
epilation head you want to use ( or ).
• To remove the epilation head, press the
release buttons on the left and right
and pull it off.
• Click the desired head into place:
– Choose the starter epilation head if
you are epilating for the first time or
if you have very sensitive skin.
– Once your skin is used to epilation,
you may switch to the standard
epilation head
B which allows a more
efficient and faster epilation thanks to
its greater number of tweezers.
• Plug the cord connector into the
socket and plug the special cord set
into an electrical outlet.
C How to epilate
1 Make sure one of the clips or is
attached to the epilation head.
To turn on the epilator, slide switch
to the «optimal» setting. For reduced
speed, choose the «soft» setting. The
SmartLight illuminates as long as the
epilator is switched on.
2 Rub your skin to lift short hairs. For
optimum performance hold the ap-
pliance at a right angle (90°) against
your skin. Guide it in a slow, continuous
movement without pressure against the
hair growth, in the direction of the
switch.
As hair can grow in different directions,
it may also be helpful to guide the
appliance in different directions to
achieve optimum results.
Both rollers of the massaging rollers
clip
should always be kept in contact
with the skin, allowing the pulsating
movements to stimulate and relax the
skin for a gentler epilation.
If you epilate often and are looking for a
faster way to efficiently remove hair,
attach the EfficiencyPro clip
. It
ensures maximum skin contact at the
optimum usage position.
3 Leg epilation
Epilate your legs from the lower leg in
an upward direction. When epilating
behind the knee, keep the leg stretched
out straight.
4 Underarm and bikini line epilation
Use tests monitored by dermatolo-
gists have revealed that you can also
epilate the underarm and the bikini line.
Please be aware that these areas are
particularly sensitive to pain. With
repeated usage the pain sensation will
diminish.
Before epilating, thoroughly clean the
respective area to remove residue (like
deodorant). Then carefully dab dry with
a towel. When epilating the underarm,
keep your arm raised up and guide the
appliance in different directions.
Cleaning the epilation heads
5 After epilating, unplug the epilator and
clean the epilation head. First remove
the clip used (
or ) and clean it with
the brush.
6 To clean the tweezer element, dip the
cleaning brush in alcohol. Clean the
tweezers with the brush from the rear
side of the epilator head while turning
the barrel manually. Remove the
epilation head by pressing the release
buttons
on the left and right and pull
it off.
