Charging

For best performance, fully charge the appliance before use. You cannot operate the appliance while charging.

Charging time = Approx. 1 hour

The epilator can be used for approximately 30 minutes

(35 minutes when using the gentle cap)

after 1 hour of charging. (This will differ

depending on the temperature.)

Plug the AC adaptor into the epilator (a) and a household outlet (b). (Fig. 1)

Red light appears while charging. (Fig. 2)
Red light goes off after charging is completed. (Fig. 3)

How to use

Epilation head

The epilation head for underarms/ bikini-line is suitable for underarms/ bikini-line and the epilation head for legs/arms is suitable for legs/arms.

Areas suitable for epilation (Fig. 10)

A. Areas the epilation head for legs/arms can be used.
B. Areas the epilation head for underarms/bikini-line can be used. Before epilating the bikini-line, be sure to put on your swim wear or underwear etc. and check the areas you wish to epilate. ES-DEL8A/ES-EL8A
- Using the epilator on areas other than those marked areas may cause pain or skin trouble.

Areas not suitable for epilation (Fig. 11)

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.

WET epilation (epilating after wetting the skin and epilator and then applying foam) makes the skin softer so it is gentler to your skin when epilating. For DRY epilation, begin at step 3. Before DRY epilation, wipe dry any moisture or sweat from the skin.

1 Wet your skin.

2 Wet the discs and place a small quantity of liquid shower gel on the discs. (Fig. 12)

Always use shower gel when wet epilating.
- Do not use a shower gel with a scrub or with granular salt, this may cause a malfunction.
- Rinse any shower gel out of your hands.

3 Select the mode by pressing the power switch [120].

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

• The appliance may not operate in an ambient temperature lower than approximately 5^ .
• Apply the epilator at 90^ to your skin and move it slowly so that it slides over your skin.

Upwards from the bottom of the leg.

Inwards from the outside of the arm. (Fig. 13)

ES-DEL8A/ES-EL8A

Move in several directions as underarm/bikini line hair grows in different directions.

Stretch the skin with your fingers, and move slowly from inside to outside going against the flow of hair. (Fig. 14)

Tips for best epilation results

The hair removal is not permanent, so from the second use, it is recommended to epilate the underarms about once a week, and the bikini-line about once every two weeks.

ES-DEL8A/ES-EL8A / ES-EL3A

Using the gentle cap that comes with the skin guard is recommended for people using the epilator for the first time or for those with sensitive skin. The gentle cap has a skin protector for gentler epilation, to remove hair by holding the skin down to reduce pain.

We also recommend to use the SOFT mode rotation. (Page 16)

1. Remove the fast cap [A].

2. Attach the gentle cap [B]. (Fig. 15)

• 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.

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.

Shaver head ES-DEL8A/ES-EL8A

WET Shaving with soap lather makes the skin slippery for a closer shave. For DRY shaving, step 3 is unnecessary. Before DRY shaving, wipe dry any moisture or sweat from the skin.

1 Attach the shaver head [F].

• Confirm the bikini comb [B] is detached.

2 Check that the outer foil is not deformed or damaged.

3 Wet your skin and put shower gel on your skin.

• Do not use a shower gel with a scrub or with granular salt. Also do not use shaving cream, skin cream or skin lotion.

Doing so may clog the blade and cause a malfunction.

4 Select the mode by pressing the power switch [120].

• Press gently so that the whole blade is in close contact with the skin and the surface of the blade does not move up and down.

Foot care head ES-DEL8A/ES-EL8A

The foot care head cannot be used in a bath or shower.
- Before use, be sure to fully charge the appliance.
- We recommend using the product within 30 minutes after bathing or showering. With the feet clean, wipe off any water on the skin. (Each use should be approximately 10 minutes (5 minutes on each foot, 10 minutes total for both feet))

1 Attach the foot care head [H].

• Push down firmly until you hear a "click".

2 Press the power switch [120] thrice. (Fig. 16)

• POWER mode is recommended for rotation speed. (Page 16)

3 Bring the foot care head into contact with the skin, and begin filing.

• Filing a single location for a long time can cause it to become hot with friction. To avoid this, be sure to make small changes in the filing position while filing.
• Filing should be performed about once every two weeks.

The basics of foot care

Do not use the product for filing anything other than calluses and hardened skin on the feet. (Fig. 17)

Callus

A callus is a hardened layer that forms through repeated pressure or abrasion.

a Hardened layer
忍 Epidermis
Derma

Things to be careful of when filing

Before use After use

a Hardened layer
Epidermis
Derma
Portion to be removed
Leave some of the hardened layer

• Filing an area too deeply can cause it to become sore or inflamed.
• Filing too large an area can result in even larger calluses forming. Therefore, be sure to leave some of the hardened layer.

Tips for moving the foot care head

Move in the direction indicated by the arrows.

Use your free hand to support filing. (Fig. 18)

Cleaning

Always clean the heads and caps after use to keep them in a hygienic state.
- Switch off and unplug the appliance before cleaning.
Take care not to damage the skin protector, the frame, the fast cap and the gentle cap during cleaning.

Dry cleaning [ABCDF]

Epilation head/Shaver head

1. Lift fast/gentle caps, the frame upward while holding the cap release ribs [AB②]/the frame release ribs [D⑤] or remove the frame by pushing the frame release button [F⑬]. (Fig. 19)
2. Clean the gentle cap [B], the epilation head [CD] and the shaver head [F] with the cleaning brush [K]. (Fig. 20)

Wet cleaning [ABCDFH]

Epilation head/Shaver head

(Fig. 21)

1. Wet the discs and blades, and then apply liquid hand soap.
2. Turn the switch on and then foam is created.

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

4. Do not use hot water.

5. If soap is not completely washed away, then a white deposit can accumulate and prevent the discs and the blades from moving smoothly.

6. Rinse the shaver head with the frame removed.

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

Foot care head

(Fig. 22)

1. Apply liquid hand soap to the central part of the file.
2. Pour a small amount of water on the file and turn the switch on.
3. Rinse any debris thoroughly with water or lukewarm water.
4. After turning the switch off, remove the frame and rinse inside.
5. Wipe with a dry cloth and dry in a well-ventilated location.

Replacing the outer foil and the inner blade ES-DEL8A/ES-EL8A

We recommend replacing the outer foil

[F⑧] every year and the inner blade [F⑫] every two years. Remove the outer foil of the shaver head [F] only when replacing it.

Replacing the outer foil (Fig. 23)

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.

Replacing the inner blade (Fig. 24)

1. Remove the inner blade by holding it at both ends and pulling straight away from the shaver.
2. Insert the inner blade by holding it at both ends and press downward.

Replacing the file ES-DEL8A/ES-EL8A

The file lifetime is approximately 1 year (assuming a single use every 2 weeks with approximately 10 minutes per use). We recommend replacing the file about once a year.

1. Press down with your finger and release the file.
2. Align the shaped part with the mark side and press down. (Fig. 25)
