Rowenta INSTANT SOFT COMPACT BODY & FACE, Manual

Page: 5 / 265

For a better assessment, observe the areas which have not been exposed to the sun: underneath the
swimsuit or the armpits. You must not have recently applied any self-tanning or exfoliation product.
To schedule your first session, refer to the "PRECAUTION OF USE / STEP 1" colour table found on
the back cover.
Regardless of intensity level, you must take the tolerance test before performing the first treatment.
Ideally, test three spots on the area to be depilated, which have been shaved beforehand. If the first hair
removal is painful, even in the slightest, you must reduce the intensity.
24 hours after the test, inspect the state of the treated area. It should not be red in any way; the skin
should neither be sensitive nor swollen, and you should not feel any discomfort.
If the test is fine, you can use the appliance with the same setting.
It is preferable to shave on the day before treatment. The skin must be clean and free of any cosmetics.
WARNING! DO NOT USE THIS APPLIANCE:
- Before having read the warnings and safety instructions in the contraindication section of this
manual.
- If the skin is darker than MAT skin type shown in the table with the different skin colours.
- On parts exposed to the sun to UV radiation, or treated with self-tanning products.
- On parts having been exfoliated recently.
CAUTION: Do not apply any cosmetics before or after the treatment. This could lead to redness or
burns.
