USER MANUAL Silk Epil Lady Shaver 5328 BRAUN

• Using the special cord set, connect the shaver to an electrical outlet with the motor switched off.

• When charging for the first time, leave the shaver to charge continuously for 4 hours. Subsequent charges will only take about 1 hour.

• The charging light (5) shows that the shaver is being charged. When the batteries are fully charged, the green light goes off. If it comes on again while connected to an electrical outlet, this indicates the shaver is recharging to maintain its full capacity.

• A full charge provides up to 40 minutes cordless operation depending on your hair type and usage behaviour. Frequent use of the exfoliation attachment will reduce the cordless operation time.

• Once the shaver is completely charged, discharge it through normal use. Then recharge to full capacity. Maximum battery capacity will only be reached after several charging/dis- charging cycles.

• Thanks to the convenient 2-way feature your Braun Silk·épil may also be used even if the rechargeable batteries are discharged, connecting it to an electrical outlet via the special cord set. Shaving For radiant skin, the Silk&Soft system captures even problem hairs, the integrated SoftStrip stretches the skin to ensure a closer reach and the floating shaver foil and the floating longhair trimmer hug the skin, all to ensure a perfectly close shave. For a gentle shave, the EasyGlide cushion ensures smoother gliding and reduces skin irritation. The additional OptiShave attachment (1) allows an extra close and comfortable shave of legs.

• Press and slide up the on/off switch to turn the shaver on. Make sure that the TrimLock is in the « » position.

• For optimum shaving results, place the OptiShave attachment onto the shaver head (A). It ensures perfect closeness and the optimum usage angle so that both, the shaver foil and the long hair trimmer are in contact with the skin.

• Move the appliance slowly against the direction of hair growth. Adjusting to the body contours, the long hair trim- mer first raises all long hairs and cuts them off. Then the shaver foil follows to smooth away any stubble.

• If you have not shaved for a long period of time, remove the OptiShave attachment to allow a faster pre-cutting of longer hairs (B).

• Always ensure that both, the shaver foil and the long hair trimmer are in contact with the skin. Shaving your legs with the exfoliation attachment Instead of the OptiShave attachment, you may want to use the exfoliation attachment (6) that helps enhancing the general look of the skin surface thanks to its exfoliation pad. The exfoliation pad gently scrubs the skin to remove dead skin particles, thus revitalizing the skin and giving it a radiant lode. 91094868_LS_5560_S6-104.indd 1191094868_LS_5560_S6-104.indd 11 27.09.16 13:3627.09.16 13:36 CSS APPROVED Effective Date 4Oct2016 GMT - Printed 04Jan2017 Page 10 of 103 Downloaded from www.vandenborre.be12 Proceed as follows: – Remove the OptiShave attachment (1) and replace it with the exfoliation attachment (6). – When guiding the appliance slowly against the direction of hair growth, make sure that the long hair trimmer, the shaver foil and exfoliation pad are in contact with the skin. Shaving and styling the underarm and bikini area In these sensitive areas, make sure that you always shave on stretched skin in order to avoid injuries (B). Please take special care if the skin surface is uneven or provided with skin tags. Make sure not to touch them with the long hair trimmer. Shaving the underarm and bikini area: Remove the OptiShave attachment for a perfect reach. Always stretch your skin when shaving. Bikini area styling: For trimming precise lines and contours, lock the long hair trimmer by sliding the TrimLock to the position « » (C1). To trim hair to a uniform length, lock the long hair trimmer and place the bikini zone trim attachment (7) onto the shaver head (C2). For optimum results, move the appliance slowly against the direction of hair growth. When you are finished After shaving, you may want to smooth on a little body cream or lotion. However, avoid using irritating substances like deodorants with alcohol right away. Cleaning Cleaning the shaver head with the brush (D1)

• Press the release buttons to remove the shaver head. Tap the bottom of the shaver head gently on a flat surface (not on the foil).

• Brush out the cutter block and the inside of the shaver head. However, do not clean the shaver foil with the brush as this may damage the foil. Cleaning the shaver head under running water (D2)

• Press the release buttons to remove the shaver head.

• Rinse the shaver head and the cutter block separately under warm running water. A natural based soap may also be used provided it contains no particles or abrasive substances. Rinse off all foam.

How to clean and maintain the exfoliation attachment To clean the exfoliation attachment (6), first remove it (E), then thoroughly brush out the exfoliation pad (6a). From time to time, you may also clean it with soapy water. Let it dry before using it again. Keeping your Braun Silk·épil in top shape

• The shaving parts need to be lubricated regularly every 3 months (F). If you clean the shaver head under running water, lubricate it after each cleaning. Apply some light machine oil or vaseline to the shaver foil and the metal parts of the long hair trimmer. Then remove the shaver head and also apply a tiny amount of vaseline as shown in picture section (F).
