Please be aware that especially at the beginning,

these areas are particularly sensitive to pain.
Therefore, we recommend that you select speed
setting «I» for the first few epilation processes.
With repeated usage the pain sensation will
diminish. For more comfort, ensure that the hair is
at the optimum length of 2–5 mm.

Before epilating, thoroughly clean the respective

area to remove residues (like deodorant). When
epilating the underarm, 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 epilation, avoid using
irritating substances such as deodorants with
alcohol.

Facial epilation

For removing any unwanted hair from the face

or other sensitive areas, use the precision cap (9)
as an optional attachment to be placed on the
epilation head (2).

For the first few usages, we recommend that you

select speed setting «I» in order to get used to the
epilation sensation in those sensitive areas.

Prior to epilation, we recommend cleaning the

skin with alcohol to promote good hygiene.

When epilating the face, stretch the skin with one

hand and slowly guide the epilator with your other
hand the direction of the switch.

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.

Cleaning the epilation head

Regular cleaning ensures better performance.

a Brush cleaning:
Remove the cap and brush it out.
Thoroughly clean the tweezers from the rear side

of the epilator 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.

b Cleaning under running water:
After each wet usage, clean the appliance under

running water.

Remove the cap. Hold the appliance with the

epilation head under hot running water. Then press
the release button (6) to remove the epilation head.

Thoroughly shake both, the epilation head and the

appliance to make sure that remaining water can
drip out. Leave both parts to dry. Before reattaching,
make sure that they are completely dry.

B Using the shaver head attachment

The shaver head (10) is designed for a fast and close
shave of underarms and bikini line, contour trimming
and cutting hair to 5 mm length. Use the shaver
head on dry skin only.

d Cleaning

Do not clean the shaver foil (II) with the brush as
this may damage the foil.

every 3 months.
