epilation head before each use will mini-
mise the risk of infection.
If you have any doubts about using this
appliance, please consult your physician.
In the following cases, this appliance
should only be used after prior consul-
tation with a physician:
eczema, wounds, inflamed skin
reactions such as folliculitis (purulent
hair follicles) and varicose veins
– around moles
reduced immunity of the skin, e.g.
diabetes mellitus, during pregnancy,
Raynaud’s disease
haemophilia or immune deficiency.
Some useful tips
Epilation is easier and more comfortable
when the hair is at the optimum length of
2–5 mm (0.08–0.2 in.) If hairs are longer,
we recommend that you either shave first
and epilate the shorter re-growing hairs
after 1 or 2 weeks.
When epilating for the first time, it is
advisable to epilate in the evening, so that
any possible reddening can disappear
overnight. To relax the skin we recom-
mend applying a moisture cream after
epilation.
Fine hair which re-grows might not grow
up to the skin surface. The regular use of
massage sponges (e.g. after showering)
or exfoliation peelings helps to prevent
ingrowing hair as the gentle scrubbing
action removes the upper skin layer and
fine hair can get through to the skin
surface.

or

is attached to the epilation head.
To turn on the appliance, slide switch

to the «optimal» setting. For reduced
speed, choose the «soft» setting. The
«smartlight» illuminates as long as the
appliance is switched on.
2 Rub your skin to lift short hairs.
For optimum performance hold the
appliance at a right angle (90°) against
your skin. Guide it in a slow, contin-
uous movement without pressure
against the hair growth, in the direction
of the switch. As hair can grow in
different directions, it may also be
helpful to guide the appliance in dif-
ferent directions to achieve optimum
results.
The massaging rollers

always be kept in contact with the
skin, allowing the pulsating movements
