HP6493, HP6492, HP6491 Gd∏¨á Gd©ôH«áGd∏¨á Gd©ôH«á v<ñUãIntroduction With your new Satinelle ICE you can remove unwanted hairs quickly, easily and effectively. The combination of the new ceramic epilating system with the contour-following skin cooler and the massaging system constitutes a revolution in epilation. Thanks to the natural numbing effect of ice and massaging, the new Satinelle ICE makes epilation more comfortable and less painful than ever. The result is a silky-smooth skin and a hair growth reduction of up to 50%, assuming you use the appliance regularly (every 4 weeks). The Satinelle ICE is suitable for all body parts. Type HP6493 also comes with a skin cooler that has been specially developed for epilating sensitive areas (underarms, bikini line). These areas can be particularly sensitive to pain, which this special skin cooler helps to diminish. The rapidly rotating epilating discs catch even the shortest hairs (down to 0.5 millimetre!) and pull them out by the roots. As a result, your skin stays smooth for up to four weeks and regrowth is soft and downy.

ENGLISH6◗ Check if the voltage indicated on the adapter corresponds to the local mains voltage before you connect the appliance. ◗ Only use the appliance in combination with the adapter supplied. ◗ Do not use the appliance if the adapter or the appliance itself is damaged. ◗ If the adapter is damaged, always have it replaced by one of the original type in order to avoid a hazard. ◗ The adapter contains a transformer. Do not cut off the adapter to replace it with another plug, as this will cause a hazardous situation. ◗ Keep the appliance and the adapter dry. ◗ Keep the appliance out of the reach of children. ◗ Do not expose the appliance to temperatures lower than 5cC or higher than 35cC. ◗ To prevent damage and injuries, keep the running appliance away from your scalp hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, clothes, threads, cords, brushes etc. ◗ Do not use the epilating head 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 or people suffering from diabetes mellitus, Raynaud's disease or immunodeficiency should contact their doctor first. Preparing for use Freezing the skin cooler 1 Put the skin cooler WITHOUT the insulating sleeve in the freezer or freezing compartment (***) at least 4 hours before you start epilating. When the fluid has turned completely blue, the skin cooler is ready for use. Make sure the outside of the skin cooler is completely dry before you freeze it.

TIP: you can store the skin cooler in the freezer permanently. ENGLISH 7Using the appliance General information about epilation ◗ Epilation is easier just after taking a bath or shower. Make sure your skin is completely dry when you start epilating. ◗ 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. ◗ Before epilating longer hairs on sensitive skin areas, shorten them with a trimmer or a pair of scissors. ◗ Your skin may become a little red and irritated the first few times you use the epilator. This phenomenon is absolutely normal and will quickly disappear. As you use the appliance more often, your skin will get used to epilation, skin irritation will decrease and regrowth will become thinner and softer. If the irritation has not disappeared within three days, we advise you to consult a doctor. ◗ We advise you to epilate before going to bed at night, as this will allow any skin irritation that may develop to diminish overnight. Epilating with the leg skin cooler Make sure your skin is clean, entirely dry and free from grease. Do not use any cream before you start epilating. 1 Slide the insulating sleeve onto the skin cooler (fig. 2). The insulating sleeve prevents an unpleasant sensation of coldness in your hand while using the appliance and keeps the skin cooler cold as long as possible. Occasionally the pivoting cooling head may freeze onto the skin cooler and won't move when you take the skin cooler from the freezer. The pivoting cooling head will start pivoting again after you have passed it over your leg a few times. 2 Snap the appliance onto the skin cooler (fig. 3). 3 Insert the appliance plug into the bottom of the appliance and put the adapter in the wall socket. ENGLISH84 Switch the appliance on by selecting the desired speed (fig. 4). Select speed I for areas with little hair growth and for areas where bones are located directly beneath the skin, such as knees and ankles. Select speed II for larger areas with stronger hair growth. 5 Stretch your skin with your free hand to make the hairs stand upright. 6 Place the appliance perpendicularly onto the skin with the epilating head pointing forward and move it against the direction of hair growth at a moderate speed (fig. 5). Make sure both the epilating discs and the skin cooler are in proper contact with the skin. Press the appliance lightly onto the skin. ◗ If you are not completely satisfied with the epilation result, try moving the epilator more slowly over your skin. 7 Use the tab on the bottom end of the appliance to remove the appliance from the skin cooler (fig. 6). Epilating with the skin cooler for underarms and bikini line (HP6493 only). The special skin cooler for the underarms and the bikini line reduces the number of active epilating discs. Combined with the large cooling surface, this skin cooler makes epilating sensitive areas less painful. You will get the best results when the hairs are not too long (max. 1cm). 1 Slide the insulating sleeve onto the skin cooler (fig. 7). 2 Snap the appliance onto the skin cooler (fig. 8). 3 Switch the appliance on by selecting the desired speed (fig. 4). We advise you to use speed I. 4 To epilate the underam area, place one arm behind your head to stretch the skin and place the appliance perpendiculary onto the skin with the hand of the other arm (fig. 9). ENGLISH 95 To epilate the bikini line, stretch the skin with your free hand and place the appliance perpendicularly onto your skin, without exerting any pressure (fig. 10). 6 Move the appliance slowly across the skin against the direction of hair growth. 7 Use the tab on the bottom end of the appliance to remove the appliance from the skin cooler for underarms and bikini line (HP6493 only) (fig. 11). Epilating without skin cooler ◗ If you do not want to use the skin cooler, for instance because you have grown accustomed to the sensation of epilation, you can also use the appliance without the skin cooler. ◗ Make sure that you place the epilator perpendicularly onto your skin and that you move it against the direction of hair growth. Using the exfoliating body puff Use the exfoliating body puff in the shower. Regular massages with the puff may help to prevent ingrown hairs. Do not use the puff immediately before or after epilation. Shaving (HP6493 and HP6492 only) You can use the shaving head to shave sensitive body parts, such as your underarms and bikini line. With the shaving head you will obtain a smooth result in a comfortable and gentle way. 1 Make sure the appliance is switched off. 2 Remove the skin cooler 3 Remove the epilating head (fig. 12).
