works best when you move it over your skin without exerting any pressure.

setting indications and the charging light flash red.

The lights stop flashing after 30 seconds.

red again, the appliance has not yet cooled down completely.

epilating head get blocked (e.g. by clothes etc.), the appliance stops and the speed setting indications
start to flash red for 5 seconds.

your thumb until you can remove whatever is blocking the rotating tweezers.
