Before use
Make sure skin is clean before and after use. Failure to do so can cause infection and inflammation.
Do not use the appliance if you have eczema or other skin conditions, rashes, sensitive skin, proneness to
infections, varicose veins, diabetes, hemophilia or poor blood clotting.
Using just before swimming and sports activities or sharing use with family or friends can result in bacteria
entering the skin and causing damage and inflammation.
Turning on the appliance without an epilation head attached can cause finger injury, hair entanglement in
the spinning gears or mechanical malfunction.
The following things can cause skin damage, injury, inflammation, pain, bleeding, sensitive skin or severe
pain.
- Using the appliance if the epilation discs or the skin protector have been damaged.
- Using on or near your face, genitals, warts, pimples, bruises, rashes, wounds or loose skin.
- Applying strong pressure to the skin, repeatedly moving over the same area or using a jabbing motion.
- Using before or during menstruation, during pregnancy, for about one month after giving birth, when ill
and when your skin is sunburned etc.
The appliance can be used for wet or dry epilation. The following is the symbol for a wet epilator. It means
that the appliance may be used in a bath or shower.

Safety precautions
Do not drop or bang the appliance as the skin protector or the epilation discs may be damaged.
The movement of the discs makes some noise but this is perfectly normal.
The appliance is not for use by or on children or invalids. Close supervision is necessary when used near
children or invalids.
The following things can cause mechanical malfunction.
- Using nail polish remover, benzine, alcohol, etc. to clean the appliance.
- Leaving the appliance where it will be exposed to high temperatures or direct sunlight.
Contact an authorized service center if the epilator gets damaged.
Replacing batteries (Fig. 1)
When the discs speed decreases, this indicates that the batteries should be replaced with new ones.
Before replacing the batteries, wipe the epilator free of moisture to prevent the inside from getting wet.
Do not use this epilator with weak batteries.
Remove the batteries when not using the epilator for a long time.
1 Make sure the switch is in the off position, then remove the battery cover.
Always grasp the white portion of the epilator when removing the battery cover.
Do not let your fingers touch the switch.
2 Insert two AAA alkaline batteries as illustrated.
3 Reattach the battery cover.
Listen for the clicking sound assuring you the cover has been properly attached.
Wet/foam epilation
1 Wet your skin.
2 Remove the cap and attach the head frame you wish to use.
3 Place a small quantity of liquid body soap on the discs to move the epilator smoothly.
4 Wet the discs.
5 Slide the on/off switch and then epilate.
Foam makes the epilator slide better, so you may move it fast. Make sure the epilator is applied at a
right angle to your skin and press gently while moving it slowly. Always wash the discs well after use
to remove any residual soap.
1
Dry epilation
You can also epilate without wetting your skin or the discs.
For best epilation results
Apply the epilator at a right angle to your skin and press gently while moving it slowly against the
hair growth. (Fig. 2)
We recommend trimming hairs before epilating for the first time if you have not epilated for a long time.
When using the appliance on areas where the skin is prone to sagging (on the inside of the knees and
elbows), pull and stretch the skin so that it is tight.
Rub your skin to lift short hairs.
We strongly recommend that you do not use for hairs longer than 5 mm.
We recommend epilating in the evening at first so any possible reddening can disappear overnight. Cool
the skin with a cold towel if you feel pain or there is a rash.
We recommend regular use of massage sponges or exfoliation to prevent ingrown hairs.
