ENGLISH
NOTE: This product is for cordless use only. The epilator cannot be turned on while it is
charging. Do not try to use the epilator while it is plugged into the mains.
Your epilator cannot be overcharged, however, if the product is not going to be used for
an extended period (2-3 months), unplug it from the mains and store. Fully recharge your
appliance when you want to use it again.
C GENERAL INFORMATION ON EPILATION
This Remington® epilator has been designed to make the removal of unwanted hairs as
efficient, gentle and easy as possible.
The rotating tweezers catch even the shortest hairs (minimum length 0.5mm) and pull them
out by the root. The hairs that grow back are soft and thin. Epilating leaves your skin smooth
and hair-free for several weeks.
If you have not used an epilator before, or if you have not epilated for a long period of time, it
may take a short while for your skin to adapt to epilation. The discomfort experienced at first
is considerably reduced with repeated use as the skin adjusts to the process.
Using an epilator may cause reddening or irritation of the skin. This is a normal reaction
that will quickly disappear. However, you should consult your doctor if the irritation has not
disappeared within three days.
All methods of hair removal from the root can result in in-growing hair depending on the
condition of the skin and hair. Regular exfoliation helps to prevent in-growing hair.
In some cases inflammation of the skin could occur when bacteria penetrate the skin (e.g.
when sliding the appliance over the skin). Thorough cleaning of the epilation head before
each use will minimise the risk of infection.
F HOW TO USE
This epilator is suitable for wet or dry use and may be used in the shower.
This epilator operates cordless only.
a Useful Tips
• When using an epilator for the first time it is best to try it on a small area to get used to
the process of epilation.
• The optimum length for hair removal is between 2-5mm. Epilation is easier and more
comfortable.
• Take a warm bath or shower before epilating and exfoliate to remove dead skin cells.
This will make your skin more pliable, making the epilation process less uncomfortable.
• Epilate in the evening so that any possible reddening can disappear overnight.
• After use you can use a body cream or aloe lotion to sooth the skin and reduce skin
irritation.
• Exfoliate regularly to avoid in-growing hair.
Why Exfoliate?
Exfoliation prevents in-growing hairs. Ingrown hairs occur when the growing hair curls up
under the skin instead of growing out like it should. It results in an often painful red bump
and possible infections. Rubbing your skin with an exfoliation glove in the shower or bath, or
using a dry body brush will help reduce ingrown hairs or infections.
