How to use summary
This is a summary and a memory aid and
not a replacement for the full instructions—
which you need to read fully.
Keep these instructions, you may need to
refer to them in the future.
The Boots Smooth Skin
PLUS
system is not
suitable for everyone.
1 Ensure your skin type is suitable by
reading the warnings and safety
Information on pages 7 – 9 of these
instructions before using.
2 Assess your skin tone in the area you
wish to treat using the Skin Tone chart
on page 2 and the Electronic Skin Tone
Sensor. NB Always use the skin tone setting
IIII when treating the face and neck.
3 Remember to patch test a small area
of skin (see section 3, page 11) and
wait for 48 hours to ensure no adverse
reactions occur in this time.
4 Shave or trim the area to be treated.
5 Turn on the mains supply and the
unit will come on in STANDBY mode.
Press and hold the selector button for
three seconds, the gentlest setting IIII
will light up and is now ready to pulse.
6 Repeatedly press the selector button
until the correct skin tone light is on.
7 Always apply a thick layer of
refrigerated Activator Gel to the area
to be treated. DO NOT rub the gel into
the skin. The gel will help minimise any
discomfort and also aid in showing the
areas treated. Not using enough gel
may result in a serious adverse reaction.
8 Hold handset to the skin. The trigger
button will illuminate to indicate correct
positioning on the skin.
9 Press trigger button to cause a flash.
10 Move to next area and repeat
