INSTRUCTION BOOKLET
Before using your
Gold&Caress
, please read all these instructions
carefully and completely.
Do not store or use your
Gold&Caress
where it can fall into a tub or sink
of water. Do not reach for your unit if it has fallen into water - immediately
unplug it.
It is recommended to use the appliance on an electrical installation which
uses a differential, with a nominal current loss not over 30m A.
The
Gold&Caress
will help you obtain and maintain silky smooth skin
with its new, super-gentle and pain reduction technology. Pain reduction
technology was designed to help eliminate pain that is normally associated
with removing hair from the root.
The
Gold&Caress
, incorporating over 10 years of development and
know-how, takes epilating to new levels of efficiency and comfort that you
can use at home or while travelling.
With its curved, ergonomic shape and 36 gold plated tweezers that fit the
contours of your body, it quickly and effectively removes hair as short as
0.25mm in length, so you can use the
Gold&Caress
the day after shaving.
The
Gold&Caress
can be used without the adapter, after being initially
charged for 16 hours, or after being plugged in to an electrical outlet.
CAUTION :
When travelling overseas, before plugging into an electrical outlet, make
sure that the adaptor is appropriate for the local voltage.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
The
Gold&Caress
can be used either as a cordless rechargeable unit or
by plugging it into an electrical outlet.
Before using the
Gold&Caress
for the first time as a rechargeable unit, you
need to charge the battery for 16 hours. After the initial charging you will
only need to recharge your unit after every few sessions for 4-6 hours. To
extend the lifetime of your unit we recommend that you fully drain, let the
battery ware out, every six months.
For best results : take a warm bath or shower, to open up your pores, and
use the loofa sponge, enclosed, in small circles to exfoliate and remove dead
skin from the area you wish to remove hair. You can use the loofa with any
bath/shower gel or bar soap. Doing this before you use your
Gold&Caress
will cleanse and make your skin pliable, so removing hair will be less
uncomfortable.
1 - Use your
Gold&Caress
in a location that has a comfortable
temperature to avoid perspiration.
2 - Make sure that the areas you wish to remove hair from are clean, dry
and free from moisturing cream or oil.
3 - If your unit is not charged, insert the adapter plug into the bottom of the
unit and plug your adapter into an electrical outlet.
4 - Remove the protective cap, by gently pulling, from your
Gold&Caress.
5 - Turn your unit to the desired speed, low is recommended for fine hair and
high is recommended for coarse hair.
6 - Position your
Gold&Caress
so that the gold discs are upright, the Sportelec
logo should be facing away from you.
7 - To minimize discomfort, hold the skin taut surrounding the area you are
removing hair from.
8 - Gently glide the
Gold&Caress
in short, quick, brush like or sweeping
strokes in the opposite direction of the hair growth.
9 - Note : for your protection your
Gold&Caress
may slow down, or stop
operating completely if it is pressed too hard against the skin.
10 - Before removing hair from the bikini line and underarms it is important
to use the loofa sponge in a warm shower or bath to remove dead skin and
prevent ingrown hairs. If it has been an extended amount of time since you
have removed hair from your bikini line and underarms, trim the hair with
a scissor or trimmer. Make sure to hold your skin taut with one hand while
removing hair.
11 - The
Gold&Caress
is only intended to remove single hairs from the upper
lip and chin. Hold area taut and use a small brushing motion. Do not use
like an electric shaver on your entire face!
12 - Repeat within each area until all unwanted hair is removed. The time
required to remove unwanted hair depends on the users hair type. After
several months of continuous use, the hair may begin to grow in sparser
and finer.
13 - After each use clean your
Gold&Caress
.
