Epilation tips
Note: Always clean the epilating head of the epilator and the precision epilator before first
use.
- We advise you to epilate before going to bed at night, as skin irritation usually
disappears overnight.
- Epilation is easier just after taking a bath or shower. Make sure your skin is
completely dry when you start epilating.
- Make sure your skin is clean, entirely dry and free from grease. Do not use any
cream before you start epilating.
- Epilation is easier and more comfortable when the hair has the optimum length
of 3–4 mm. If the hairs are longer, we recommend that you shave first and epilate
the shorter regrowing hairs after 1 or 2 weeks.
Using the epilator
Connecting the appliance
1 Insert the appliance plug into the appliance (Fig. 5).
2 Insert the adapter into the wall socket.
Epilating the legs
1 Select the desired speed to switch on the appliance (Fig. 6).
Preferably use speed II. Switch to speed I 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.
3 Place the epilator perpendicularly onto the skin with the on/off slide pointing
in the direction in which you are going to move the appliance (Fig. 7).
