must never come in contact with the
hair on your head, eyelashes, ribbons
or clothes, etc. to prevent any danger
of injury as well as to prevent
blockage or damage of the unit.
How to operate your
epilator
Check to see that the skin protector
and discs are not damaged or
deformed. If they are then please
do not use the appliance.
If you are concerned about pain
during epilation then please use
with 1 (low speed) setting.
• Insert the power cord securely
into the epilator.
• Plug the power cord securely into
an electrical outlet.
• Attach the head you wish to use.
• Slide the switch to the 1 (low
speed) or 2 (normal speed)
position and carry out epilation.
Correct usage for best epilation
results
• When the hair is long, it makes
hair removal easier and reduces
pain to trim the hair before
epilation. Leg and arm hair should
be shortened a length of 3 to 5
mm, and underarm and bikini-line
hair to a length of 1 to 2 mm.
• Apply epilator at right angles (90°)
against your skin. For best epilation
results keep in contact with the
skin surface. Pressing gently and
guide the appliance slowly against
hair growth. This switch-side of
the appliance shows against hair
growth. (Fig. 2)
• Rub your skin to lift short hairs.
• Move the epilator slowly on the
skin with the skin protector vertically
touching.
Legs and arms epilation (Fig. 3)
Please use the large epilation head.
Important for arms and legs epilation:
Apply epilator at right angles (90°)
against your skin.
Press gently and guide the appliance
slowly against hair growth.
Underarms and bikini-line epilation
(ES2027 and ES2024) (Fig. 4)
When epilating underarm, your arm
should be raised.
Please use the small epilation head.
Be aware that these areas are
particularly sensitive to pain.
However, the pain sensation will
diminish with repeated usage. For
this specific application, we would
like to give the following advices:
• Hairs on the underarms are
growing in different directions,
therefore move the epilator in
several directions.
• Before epilating, thoroughly clean
the respective area to remove
residue (like deodorant).
Then dry carefully to avoid skin
irritation.
• Hair should not be longer than 5mm.
• Do not use alcoholic deodorants.

General information about
epilation
All methods of hair removal at the
roots can lead to minor skin injuries
and in-growing hairs. All micro-
injuries caused by plucking hairs
may lead to inflammation through
the penetration of bacteria into the
skin. Thoroughly cleaning the
epilation discs before each use
minimizes the risk of infection.
Depending on the condition of your
skin and hairs, you may experience
some irritation (e.g. feeling of pain,
skin reddening) when you start
using the product. When removing
hairs at root level, this is a normal
reaction that will quickly disappear
again.
If, after 48 hours, your skin still
shows irritations, we recommend
you to contact your physician.
In general, the skin reactions and
the sensation of pain tend to
diminish considerably with a
repeated use.
If you have any doubts about using
this appliance, please consult your
physician.
In the following cases, this appliance
should only be used after prior
consultation with a physician.
• eczema, wounds, inflamed skin
reactions such as folliculitis
(purulent hair follicles) and
varicose veins
