Epilating
1 Press the on/off button once to switch on the appliance.
, The appliance starts to operate at speed II, which is the most efficient speed
for epilating.
Note: If you want to use speed I, press the on/off button a second time. Speed I is
suitable for areas with little hair growth, for hard-to-reach areas and for areas where
bones are located directly beneath the skin, such as knees and ankles.
2 Stretch the skin with your free hand to make the hairs stand upright. Place
the epilating head at an angle of 90° onto the skin with the on/off button
pointing in the direction in which you are going to move the appliance (Fig. 8).
- Epilate your bikini line as shown in the figure.
- Epilate your underarms as shown in the figure.
3 Move the appliance slowly over the skin against the direction of the hair
growth while pressing it lightly (Fig. 9).
4 Press the on/off button a third time to switch off the appliance (Fig. 10).
Tip: When you epilate your underarms, use a small amount of your common shower
gel to ensure better gliding.
Tip: To relax the skin, we advise you to apply a moisturising cream immediately or a
few hours after epilation. For the underarms, use a gentle deodorant without alcohol.
overheat protection
This function helps to prevent overheating of the appliance.
Note: To avoid overheating of the epilator, do not press the appliance too hard onto your
skin. The epilator works best when you move it over your skin without exerting any pressure.
If the overheat protection is activated, the appliance switches off automatically and
the charging light flashes red for 30 seconds.
You can reset the overheat protection by letting the appliance cool down and then
switching it on again.
Note: If the charging light starts to flash red again, the appliance has not yet cooled
down completely.
overload protection
If you press the epilating head too hard onto your skin or when the epilating discs
of the epilating head get blocked (e.g. by clothes etc.), the appliance switches off
and the charging light flashes red for 5 seconds.
Turn the epilating discs with your thumb until you can remove whatever is blocking
the epilating discs.
