3 - Preparing your skin

Your skin must be clean and dry. • Do not use any cream or moisturiser before your start the epilation. • If you used to remove hair growth using a razor: • On the first few times that you remove hair growth, you may feel that your skin is more sensitive, because the hair growth will have become thicker and tougher as a result of using a razor. This feeling will diminish as you start using your epilator: the hairs will grow back less vigorously and will become finer. • Your epilator will be more effective and easier to use if you use it regularly. We recommend that you start epilating as soon as the hairs start coming through again.

4 - Plugging in the appliance (fig.1)

5 - Disconnecting the appliance (fig.2) 6 - Epilating • To get the best out of your epilator we recommend that you tilt it slightly towards your skin, in the direction you’re going to epilate, as shown in the diagram (fig. 3). • Push the switch to “2”. The switch should always be facing you during use (fig. 4). • Epilate against the direction of hair growth, slowly and without applying pressure.

7 - Epilation in sensitive areas

• For the best possible epilation we recommend that you place your epilator lightly up against the skin, in the direction you’re going to epilate, as shown in the diagram (fig. 3). • Preparing the area to be epilated: - Pre-cut the hairs which are too long, more than 1 cm in length. 8

- Make sure the area to be epilated is completely dry and that there are no traces of deodorant or perspiration.

- If you’re not used to epilating under your arms or around the bikini line with an epilator then we recommend you use the Sensitive Areas accessory. - Fit the Sensitive Areas accessory on the epilating head pushing it until it clicks (fig. 6). - Push the switch to “1” (fig. 6).

FR Epilate against the direction of hair growth, slowly without applying pressure.

• For the under arms: First of all from bottom to top...then from top to bottom (fig. 7).

You must: a) Keep your arm held upright and straight all the time you are epilating. b) Stretch your skin to make it easier to epilate.

• For the bikini line:

You must: tightly stretch your skin (fig. 8). Once you’ve finished using it, remove the Sensitive Areas accessory and unplug your epilator.

8 - Keeping the appliance in good working order

• Cleaning the epilation head: 1. Unplug the appliance (fig. 10). 2. Clean the epilation head (1) using the little brush supplied(6) (fig. 11) Important, make sure that neither the epilation head nor the epilator itself come into contact with water! • Cleaning the Sensitive Areas accessory (fig.12, 13): Avoid using alcohol on the appliance body so as not to cause discolouration.

The little red spots which appear after epilating prove that your hair growth has been removed properly; they’ll quickly disappear. For this reason it’s better to epilate in the evening. If necessary apply soothing cream after epilating.

10 - Help protect the environment!

Your epilator contains many materials that are recyclable or reusable. Make sure you dispose of it at a collection point or failing this at an approved service centre so that it can be processed.
