Introduction
.
With your new Flirt, which has been
specially developed for the underarmsand
bikini line, you can remove unwanted
hairs quickly, easily and effectively. The
rotating discs catch even the shortest hairs
(down to 0.5mm) and pull them out by
the root.The hairs that grow back are soft
and thin. So no more stubble! Epilating
with this new appliance leaves your skin
smooth andhair-free for several weeks.

Important
.
Read these instructions for use carefully
before using the appliance and save them
for future reference.
◗
Regular cleaning and proper
maintenance ensure optimal results
and a longer life for your appliance.
◗
Make sure the appliance does not
come into contact with water.
◗
Do not use the appliance on irritated
skin or skin with varicose veins,
rashes, spots, moles (with hairs) or
wounds without consulting your
doctor first. People with a reduced
immune response, e.g. during
pregnancy, or people suffering from
diabetes mellitus, Raynaud's disease
or immunodeficiency should also
consult their doctor first.
◗
Your skin may become a little red
and irritated the first few times you
use the epilator.
This phenomenon will soon
disappear as your skin gets used to
epilation and the hairs that grow
back become thinner and softer. If
the irritation has not disappeared
within three days, we advise you to
consult your doctor.
◗
To prevent damage and injuries, keep
the running appliance away from
your hair, eyebrows, eyelashes,
clothes, threads, cords, brushes etc.
◗
Keep the appliance out of the reach
of children.
◗
Only use the appliance with LR6 AA
1.5V alkaline batteries.
Using the appliance
.
B
Make sure your skin is clean, entirely dry
and free from grease. Do not use any
cream before you start epilating.
B
When you use the appliance for the first
time, we advise you to try it out on an
area with only light hair growth to get
accustomed to the epilation process.
B
As the hairs are removed by the root,
epilation may cause some skin
discomfort the first few times you use
the appliance. This effect will diminish
with each use.
1
Remove the lid of the battery
compartment by moving it
downwards until it comes loose from
the appliance and can easily be taken
off (fig. 2).
2
Insert two LR6 AA 1.5V alkaline
batteries as shown in the figure
(fig. 3).
3
Switch the appliance on by means of
the on/off slide (fig. 4).
4
Place the epilating head
perpendicularly onto the skin so that
the epilating head and massage
element are in proper contact with
the skin and stretch the skin with
your free hand to make the hairs
stand upright (fig. 5).
Move the appliance slowly, with the
massage element pointing forwards,
against the direction of hair growth. Do
not exert any pressure.
B
The massage element stretches the skin
during epilation, which makes the
appliance ideal for the more delicate
areas of the body.
◗
Epilate your bikini line as shown in
the figure (fig. 6).
◗
Epilate your underarms as shown in
the figure (fig. 7).
◗
The appliance is also suitable for
epilating the legs (fig. 8).
