It is possible that the power intensity level required will vary with the difference in a person’s skin colour according
to the area to be treated. Skin on the arms, generally exposed to the sun more frequently, is for example darker
than the underarms.
But be careful, by increasing the power level for lighter areas on your body, you will have better results but you
also increase the risk of discomfort or even side effects.
6.2. Prepare your skin for treatment
Your skin should be shaved, clean, dry and free of powder and deodorant residue.
Do not epilate (whether using an electric epilator or wax) before using the Homelight epilator. The epilation
(removal of hair at the root) will make the pulsed light treatment ineffective.
6.3. Installing and configuring your Homelight appliance
1. Remove the appliance and other Homelight epilator parts from the box.
2. Plug the adapter cable into the handle of the appliance.
3. Plug the other end of the adapter into the mains. The ‘ON/OFF’ Indicator Light will come on in orange.
4. Press the ‘ON’ button to switch the appliance on. The ‘ON/OFF’ light will turn green. You will hear a slight
noise of a fan.
Your Homelight epilator is ready to use.
Please wear the safety glasses provided when using the Homelight epilator.
5. About 1.6 second (at level 1) after having pressed the ON button, the ‘Ready’ indicator light will come on.
The appliance is ready to release the first pulse. The appliance is set to the lowest power setting by default.
The level 1 power indicator light is lit.
6. Select the power level that corresponds to your skin type (see table below) using the +/- buttons located
on the side of the appliance. The indicator lights that correspond to the selected power level will come on
in green. For example, for power level 3, the indicator lights for the first 3 levels will come on.
7. Press the application surface firmly against your skin so that there is full contact. When the application
surface is in full contact with the skin, the ‘Ready’ indicator light will start to flash.
NB: The appliance has a mechanism to protect your eyes, a contact sensor that prevents the appliance from
releasing a pulse if its application surface is not in full contact with your skin. If the appliance is not in full
