our New
Epilator
Congratulations on your purchase of one of the finest
epilation products available today. The Remington
Smooth & Silky
®
epilation system is an innovative and
revolutionary beauty care product for the removal of
hair FROM THE ROOT. It is designed to provide you with
smooth, soft, gentle results quickly.
WINNER OF THE INTERNATIONAL GOLD MEDAL
The Smooth & Silky
®
epilation system is a major
improvement upon previous hair removal methods. The
ease of use and the perfection of results, takes the
removal of hair from the root to new heights of
technological achievement. It's the only hair removal
system to receive a GOLD MEDAL from the
International Invention Convention.
If you are new to epilation systems, you may experience
some initial discomfort. This decreases with each use
of the product. With cumulative use of the Smooth &
Silky
®
epilation system, you may find a decrease in
both the quantity and the density of hair growth.
Like waxing, Remington's Smooth & Silky
®
is better
than shaving because skin remains silky smooth for up
to four to six weeks. But unlike waxing, the Smooth &
Silky
®
epilator is more efficient, cleaner and can
be used in the comfort of your home eliminating the
high cost and inconvenience of salon waxing.
The ergonomic design of Remington's Smooth & Silky
®
EP-1000 consists of 6 rows of 3 pairs of discs each.
Together they open and close 25,000 times per minute
or 400 times per second. Each time each set of discs
opens, it is for a mere 1/100 of a second. The EP-2000
consists of 6 rows of 3 sets of 3 discs. Together, they
open and close 55,000 times per minute or more than
900 times per second. All discs are on curve which follows the natural
contours of a women's face and body. The EP-2000 model has an
additional fixed middle disc in each disc pair for more efficient
depilation.
The Smooth & Silky
®
epilator can be used effectively after approxi-
mately 48 hours after shaving. Hair as short as 0.02" (0.5 mm) can
be easily removed. Remington's Smooth & Silky
®
epilator has a
built-in safety feature that automatically slows down or stops the
discs when they are pressed too hard against the skin's surface;
thus eliminating skin irritation and preventing discomfort.
How To Use
To get the most out of your Smooth & Silky
®
epilator,
please follow these simple instructions:
■
Your skin should be clean and dry of cream or oil. Use
after a shower or bath may increase effectiveness. Do not
use in an environment where you may perspire.
■
The discs are intended to remove hair as short as
0.02" (0.5 mm).
■
When plugging your epilator in, always attach plug to
the epilator first, then to outlet. This is a single voltage
unit designed to work with 120 Volts A.C., 60 Hz.
■
Switch your Smooth & Silky
®
epilator to the "ON" posi-
tion. Hold it so that the hypo-allergenic discs are perpen-
dicular to your skin. Best results are achieved by gliding
the epilator lightly over the skin in a short, circular motion
- sweeping the head up and and away at the end of each
pass. The discs should gently glide over the skin, barely
touching it. If you press too hard, a built-in safety meas-
ure slows or stops the discs altogether. This product has
the potential to pull or catch the skin if you push too hard
against the skin surface.
■
Repeat the motion within the same area a few times
until all hair is removed. The duration of use depends on
the quantity and density of the hair. After several months
of cumulative use, there will be less hair and those
remaining will be thinner. There will also be a longer
interval between re-growth of the hair.
■
For best results, the unit should be cleaned after every
use.
NOTE:
Always disconnect the epilator from the main
electrical outlet prior to cleaning. Never dip the machine
in water or use powders or other abrasive materials.
Remove the disc cover by pressing the release button
and pulling the cover up (see drawing). Then brush the
discs from all sides with the provided brush and fit the
cover back snugly.

The Smooth & Silky
®
epilator can be used safely on
the bikini line. If the bikini line hair is too long, trim first
with either scissors or a trimmer. Afterwards, you can use
