guarantee & service
If you need service or information or if you have a problem, please visit the Philips
website at www.philips.com or contact the Philips Consumer Care Centre in your
country (you find its phone number in the worldwide guarantee leaflet). If there is
no Consumer Care Centre in your country, go to your local Philips dealer.
6 Regularly remove cut hair from the comb.
If a lot of hair has accumulated in the comb, remove the comb from the
appliance and blow and/or shake the hair out of it.
styling with precision trimmer
Use the precision trimmer without the precision comb to style your bikini line.
1 Put the precision trimmer (without precision comb) on the appliance
(see section ‘Attaching/detaching attachments’ in chapter ‘Preparing for
use’) (Fig. 5).
, Trimming without the precision comb results in a hair length of approx.
0.6mm.
2 If necessary, remove the precision comb from the precision trimmer. (Fig. 11)
3 Push the on/off slide upwards to switch on the appliance.
4 Move the appliance towards the desired contour of your bikini line.
Touch the hair lightly with the precision trimmer. (Fig. 12)
The trimmer can be applied:
1 with the trimmer teeth pointing straight towards the skin. (Fig. 13)
2 with the flat part of the trimmer pointing straight towards the skin (Fig. 14)
You can be as creative as you like when you style your bikini line. You can even
draw and cut out a template, for instance a heart shape, which you can use to
create a personal style.
Note: We advise you not to use the precision trimmer in the shower, because an
even trimming result cannot be guaranteed.
Epilating with epilating head
Use the epilating head to epilate your bikini line.
Do not use the epilating head on irritated skin or skin with varicose veins,
rashes, spots, moles (with hairs) or wounds. People with a reduced immune
response or people who suffer from diabetes mellitus, haemophilia or
immunodeficiency should also consult their doctor first.
Note: Your skin may become a little red and irritated the first few times you use
the epilating head. This phenomenon soon disappears as your skin gets used to
epilation and the hairs that grow back become thinner and softer. If the irritation
does not disappear within 3 days, we advise you to consult your doctor.
Note: We advise you not to use the epilating head in the shower, because a good
epilating result cannot be guaranteed.
Tip: Epilating is easier just after taking a bath or shower. You get the best result if
your skin is completely dry when you start epilating.
1 Put the epilating head on the appliance (see section ‘Attaching/detaching
attachments’ in chapter ‘Preparing for use’).
2 Push the on/off slide upwards to switch on the appliance.
3 Place the appliance perpendicularly onto the skin so that the epilating
attachment is in proper contact with the skin.
4 Stretch the skin with your free hand to make the hairs stand upright.
5 Move the appliance slowly against the direction of hair growth (Fig. 15).
Do not exert any pressure.
Cleaning
Never use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents or aggressive liquids such
as petrol or acetone to clean the appliance.
Note: The appliance does not need to be lubricated.
1 Switch off the appliance, pull the adapter out of the wall socket and pull
the appliance plug out of the appliance.
2 Remove any comb and/or attachment from the appliance.
3 Blow and/or shake out any hair that has accumulated in the attachments
and/or combs.
4 Clean the attachments and the combs with the cleaning brush or under
the tap.
5 Clean the adapter and the handle with the cleaning brush or with a dry cloth.
Keep the adapter dry.
