2
Snap the appliance onto the skin
cooler (Fig. 4).
3
Select the desired speed to switch on the
appliance (Fig. 5).
Select speed I for areas with little hair growth and
for areas where bones are located directly beneath
the skin, such as knees and ankles.
Select speed II for larger areas with stronger hair
growth.
4
Stretch your skin with your free hand to
make the hairs stand upright.
5
Place the appliance perpendicularly onto
the skin with the epilating head pointing
forward. Move the appliance against the
direction of hair growth at a moderate
speed. (Fig. 6)
Make sure both the epilating discs and the skin
cooler are in proper contact with the skin.
Press the appliance lightly onto the skin.
If you are not completely satisfied with the
epilation result, try moving the epilator more
slowly over your skin.
6
Use the tab on the bottom end of the
appliance to remove the appliance from the
skin cooler (Fig. 7).
Epilating without the leg skin cooler
If you do not want to use the skin cooler, for
instance because you have grown accustomed
to the sensation of epilation, you can also use
the appliance without the skin cooler.
Make sure that you place the epilator
perpendicularly onto your skin and that you
move it against the direction of hair growth.
Epilating the underarms and bikini line
Your epilator comes with a sensitive area cap that
reduces the number of active epilating discs. This
makes the appliance ideal for epilating the more
delicate areas of the body, such as the underarms
and bikini line.
Note: You get the best results when the hairs are not
too long (max.1cm).
Do not use the leg skin cooler to epilate your
underarms and bikini line.
1
Put the sensitive area cap on the epilating
head (Fig. 8).
The sensitive area cap can only be fitted onto the
appliance in one way.
2
Switch on the appliance by selecting the
desired speed. (Fig. 5)
We advise you to use speed II.
3
Stretch the skin with your free hand.
4
Place the appliance perpendicularly onto
your skin, with the on/off slide pointing in the
direction in which you are going to move the
appliance.
5
Move the appliance slowly over the skin,
against the direction of the hair growth.
Epilate your bikini line as shown in the
figure (Fig. 9).
Epilate your underarms as shown in the
figure (Fig. 10).
6
For a cool sensation, you can dab the area
you have just epilated with a cloth soaked in
cold water.
7
Remove the sensitive area cap from the
epilator after use (Fig. 11).

You can use the shaving head to shave sensitive
body parts, such as your underarms and bikini line.

Using the peeling glove
Use the peeling glove in the shower.
Regular massages with the peeling glove may help
to prevent ingrown hairs. Do not use the peeling
glove immediately before or after epilation.

Environment
Do not throw away the appliance with the
normal household waste at the end of its life,
but hand it in at an official collection point for
recycling. By doing this, you help to preserve
the environment (Fig. 24).
The built-in rechargeable batteries contain
substances that may pollute the environment.
Always remove the batteries before you
discard and hand in the appliance at an official
collection point. Dispose of the batteries at
an official collection point for batteries. If you
have trouble removing the batteries, you can
also take the appliance to a Philips service
centre. The staff of this centre will remove the
batteries for you and will dispose of them in an
environmentally safe way (Fig. 25).
1
Remove the adapter from the wall socket and
let the appliance run until the batteries are
empty.
2
Remove the epilating head (Fig. 12).
3
Hold the appliance in your hand and open it
with a screwdriver (Fig. 26).
4
Pull the two housing halves apart with
your thumbs until the snap connections
break (Fig. 27).
5
Remove all components (motor unit and the
printed circuit board unit) from the housing
halves.
6
Insert a screwdriver between the plastic
battery holder and the batteries (Fig. 28).
7
Remove the batteries from the plastic battery
holder and the printed circuit board (Fig. 29).
Do not try to reassemble the appliance in order
