Leg epilation:

Stretching your skin, guide the appliance

in a slow, continuous movement without

pressure against the hair growth in the

direction of the switch.

As hair grows in different directions, it

may be helpful to guide the appliance in

different directions to achieve best results.

Epilation in sensitive areas:

For underarm and bikini line epilation,

attach the Epilation cap (12) which has

been specifically developed for use in

sensitive areas.

Before epilating, thoroughly clean the

respective area to remove residues (like

deodorant). Keep your arm raised up so

that the skin is stretched and guide the

appliance in different directions. As skin

may be more sensitive directly after epila-

tion, avoid using irritating substances

such as deodorants with alcohol.

Please be aware that especially in the

beginning, these areas are particularly

sensitive to pain. Therefore, we recom-

mend that you select speed setting «I» for

the first few usages.

With repeated usage the pain sensation

will diminish. For more comfort, ensure

that the hair is at the optimum length of

2-5 mm.

Overheating protection

As a safety feature to avoid the unlikely

event of the appliance overheating, it may

happen that the red low charge light shines

permanently for 8 seconds and then the

appliance turns off automatically. In this

case, turn the switch back to the position «0»

and let the appliance cool down.

Keeping the appliance in top

shape

Cleaning with water

After each wet usage, thoroughly clean the

appliance with water to ensure optimum

performance.

Remove the Smoothing cap (2) and clean it

under warm running water.

Hold the appliance with the epilation head

under running water and briefly switch it on.

Then press the release button (10) to remove

the epilation head.

Thoroughly shake both, the epilation head

and the appliance to make sure that

remaining water can drip out. Remove the

non-slip grip and leave all parts to dry.

Before reattaching, make sure all parts are

completely dry.

After reassembling the epilation head and

the Smoothing cap (2), you may attach the

protection cap (1) to protect the blade.

Cleaning with the brush

If you have used the appliance in dry

conditions, it may be sufficient to clean it

with the brush.

Thoroughly clean the tweezers from the rear

side of the Epilation head with the brush

dipped into alcohol. While doing so, turn the

tweezer element manually. This cleaning

method ensures best hygienic conditions for

the epilation head.

Replacing the Smoothing cap

The Smoothing cap (2) is provided with a

lubrastrip (2b). It turns white over time,

which acts as an indicator when the blade is

becoming dull. This indicates that it is time to

change the Smoothing cap. As the lubrastrip

is water soluble the Smoothing cap should

be stored in a dry environment and should

never be left in the sink, face down.
