, GENERAL INFORMATION ON EPILATION

• This Remington epilator has been designed to make the removal of unwanted hair as efficient, gentle and easy as possible. The rotating tweezers catch even the shortest hairs (minimum length 0.5mm) and pull them out by the root. That hairs that grow back are soft and thin. Epilating leaves your skin smooth and hair-free for several weeks.

• If you have not used an epilator before, or if you have not epilated for a long period of time, it may take a short while for your skin to adapt to epilation.

• The discomfort experienced at first is considerably reduced with repeated use as the skin adjusts to the process.

• Using an epilator may cause reddening or irritation of the skin. This is a normal reaction that will quickly disappear. However, you should consult your doctor if the irritation has not disappeared within three days. All methods of hair removal from the root can result in in-growing hair depending on the condition of the skin and hair. ENGLISH5 Regular exfoliation helps to prevent in-growing hair. In some cases inflammation of the skin could occur when bacteria penetrates the skin (eg. when sliding the appliance over the skin). Thorough cleansing of the epilation head before each use will minimise the risk of infection.

This epilator is suitable for wet or dry use and may be used in the shower.

• This epilator is for cordless use only.

• When using an epilator for the first time it is best to try it on a small area to get used to the process of epilation.

• The optimum length for hair removal is between 2-5mm. Epilation is easier and more comfortable.

• Take a warm bath or shower before epilating and exfoliate to remove dead skin cells. This will make your skin more pliable, making the epilation process less uncomfortable.

• Epilate in the evening so that any possible reddening can disappear overnight.

• After use you can use a body cream or aloe lotion to soothe the skin and reduce skin irritation.

• Exfoliate regularly to avoid in-growing hair. , WHY EXFOLIATE?

• Exfoliation prevents in-growing hairs. Ingrown hairs occur when the growing hair curls up under the skin instead of growing out like it should. It results in an often painful red bump and possible infections. Using the Exfoliating Brush Head provided with this product will help reduce ingrown hairs or infections. , WET USE:

• Ensure the skin is moist. For added comfort, shower gel can be added to the skin during use. It is best to try different methods to determine your preferred method of epilation. , Note: after each wet use with shower gel, clean the epilator under running water. , DRY USE:

• Before epilating make sure that the skin is clean, dry and free from creams or oils. Rub the skin in the area to be epilated to lift short hairs to optimise hair removal. ENGLISH GBDNLFEIDKSFINPSKCZ HUN PLRUTRROGRSIBG HRUAAE6

• Turn the epilator on to the desired speed:

• LOW is recommended for fine hair.

• HIGH is recommended for coarse hair or stronger hair growth.

• Using your free hand, hold the skin taut to make the hairs stand upright.

• Position the epilator flat so that the tweezers are at a 90° angle and flat against the skin. The Perfect Angle Cap will ensure the optimum tweezing angle (Diagram A).

• Using small circular motions, slowly and gently glide the epilator over the skin. This circular motion is the most effective method and makes the process less uncomfortable. Alternatively, guide the epilator in a slow, continuous movement against the hair growth (Diagram B).

• Repeat within each area until all the unwanted hair is removed.

• After epilating, turn the epilator off. , ARM/LEG EPILATION: (Diagram C)

• Epilate from the lower arm/leg and slowly move upwards. To epilate behind the elbow/knee, keep the arm/leg straight to stretch the skin. , UNDERARMS AND BIKINI: (Diagram D and E)

• Please be aware that these areas are particularly sensitive. However this sensitivity will reduce after repeated usage. For more comfort, ensure that the skin is held taut and that the hair is at the optimum length of 2-5mm.
