Wet cleaning [A C]

1. Wet the discs and blades, and then apply liquid hand soap.

2. Turn the switch on and then foam is created.

1. Wash the head with water to wash out hair.

2. Do not use hot water.

3. If soap is not completely washed away, then a white deposit can accumulate and prevent the discs and the blades from moving smoothly.
4. Rinse the shaver head with the frame removed.

1. Turn the switch off, wipe the appliance with a dry cloth and dry it well.

Replacing the outer foil

We recommend replacing the outer foil [C④] every year and the inner blade every two years. Remove the outer foil of the shaver head [C] only when replacing it.

1. While pushing the outer foil gently with the fingers, use a fingernail to release the plastic panel (b) on the blade from the hooks (a) on the inside of the frame.
2. The new outer foil should be slightly bent and pushed in until it is hooked in the frame.

• Always use shower gel when wet epilating.
- Rinse any shower gel out of your hands.

3 Slide the power switch [D⑪] to the 1 position and carry out epilation.

- Foam is created. Foam makes the epilator slide better, so you can move it fast.

Best hair length for epilation

Trim your hair before epilating for the first time or if you have not epilated for a long time. Hair removal is easier and less painful when the hair is short.

Epilating

Areas suitable for epilation

The epilator can be used on the areas. Using the epilator on other areas may cause pain or skin trouble.

Illustration of a person sitting on a bench with bandages, no text or symbols present

Areas not suitable for epilation

The epilator should not be used on the inner side of the upper arms and areas such as elbows or knees which are prone to sagging.

Dry epilation

Before epilating, wipe away water or sweat on your skin.

Slide the power switch [D⑪] to the 1 position and carry out epilation.

Wet/foam epilation

WET epilation (epilating after wetting the skin and epilator and then applying foam) makes the skin softer so is gentler to your skin when epilating.

Tips for best epilation results

The hair removal is not permanent, so from the 2nd use we recommend that you epilate the arms and legs about once every two weeks.

- Apply the epilator at a 90^ angle to your skin. Always make sure that the appliance is in contact with your skin and press gently while moving it slowly against the hair growth.

• Massaging with a body puff may help to prevent ingrown hairs.
• Reddening might appear after use. A cool towel will help if you feel pain or there is a rash.
• If your skin gets dry after epilation, we recommend applying a moisture lotion two days after epilation.
  • Make sure skin is clean before and after use.

Charging

For best performance, fully charge the appliance before use.

• You cannot operate the appliance while charging.
• Charging time differs depending on the rated voltage.

Charging time	220 V~	Approx. 15 hours
	230 - 240 V~	Approx. 12 hours

- The epilator can be used for approximately 25 minutes after charging. (This will differ depending on the temperature.)

Plug the AC adaptor into the epilator (a) and a household outlet (b).
