Using the product
Switching the product on and o
1 To turn on the product, press the on/o button once (Fig. 7).
2 If you want to select the low speed setting, press the on/o button again
(Fig. 8).
3 To turn o the product, press the on/o button once more.
Attaching and detaching the epilating head
1 To attach the epilating head, press it onto the handle (‘click’) (Fig. 9).
2 To detach the epilating head, press the release button on the back of the
product (Fig. 10).
Note: You can attach and detach the callus removal head, the trimmer head,
the shaving head and the body exfoliation brush in the same way.
Attaching and detaching the callus removal disk
1 To attach the disk, push it onto the coupling in the head (Fig. 11).
Look at the appliance from the side to check if the disk is level with the
outer rim of the head.
If the disk wobbles when you switch on the appliance, the disk is not
placed correctly. Remove the disk and attach it properly.
2 To remove the disk, put your thumb in the indent behind the disk and push
it forward until the disk detaches from the head (Fig. 12).
How to use your epilator
- Use this epilator for its intended household use as described in this
manual.
- For hygienic reasons, the epilator and attachments should only be used by
one person.
- Epilation is easier and more comfortable when the hair has the optimum
length of 1/8 - 5/32 in/3-4 mm. If the hairs are longer, pretrim them rst or
shave and epilate after 1 to 2 weeks.
- Make sure you hold the epilator handle at a 75° angle on the skin and move
it slowly against the direction of hair growth (Fig. 13).
- It is normal to experience slight skin irritation (red skin or red dots) after
epilating. In this case, it is best to epilate in the evening as most skin
irritation disappears overnight. This eect will gradually lessen with each
use.
- After each use, you may want to apply a non-alcohol based mild cream
or body lotion which will help reduce the possibility of skin irritation. Be
certain it does not contain alcohol as it may cause discomfort.
- Make sure the epilator is fully charged before using. This epilator will not
operate while the cord is connected to an electrical outlet.
Epilating
- Only use the epilator attachment to epilate areas below the neck such as
your legs, underarms and bikini line.
- Attach the delicate area cap if you want to epilate facial hair.
- For gentle, less painful epilation, epilate in the shower or bath on wet skin
with or without shower gel or soap.
- For dry epilating, make sure your skin is clean, and free from grease and
creams. Do not apply any cream before using. Hairs are easier to remove
after a bath or shower, but your skin should be completely dry before using
your epilator.
1 Before rst use, clean the epilating head (see ‘Cleaning’).
2 Press the epilating head onto the handle (Fig. 9).
3 If desired, put an attachment on the epilating head (Fig. 14).
NOTE: The attachment will only t onto the product in one direction.
4 Press the on/o button once to turn on the epilator (Fig. 7).
- The epilator starts running at speed II which is the most ecient speed for
epilating. The speed II light lights up.
- If you want to use speed I, press the on/o button a second time. Speed I
light lights up (Fig. 8).
- Select speed I for areas with little hair growth, for hard-to-reach places and
for areas with bones close to the skin’s surface, such as knees and ankles.
- When you press the on/o button a third time, the epilator turns o.
Tip: For greater visibility of ne hairs, the built-in light goes on
automatically when epilating (Fig. 15). To turn o, press the on/o button
for 3 seconds after turning on the product.
5 Hold the epilator perpendicular to your leg at a 75° angle with the on/o
button pointing in the direction you are going to move the product (Fig. 13).
6 Gently press and move the epilator slowly over the skin against the
direction of hair growth. If you press too lightly or too hard, the epilator will
not be able to grasp and remove the hairs. Experiment until you nd the
right settings and right amount of pressure for your type of skin and hair.
Tip: When epilating sensitive areas, stretch the skin with your free hand. For
epilating underarms, put your hand on the back of your head to stretch the
skin (Fig. 16).
7 Press the on/o button to turn the epilator OFF.
8 Pull the attachment o the epilating head and clean epilator and
attachment (see ‘Cleaning’).
IMPORTANT:
- After using the epilator, some redness or irritation may occur. This is normal
and should disappear quickly.
- Clean the product and attachments after each use (see ‘Cleaning’).
Using epilator attachments
- When using epilator attachments, always be sure you place the heads at
onto the skin at a 75° angle (Fig. 13).
- Simply snap each attachment onto the epilator head (‘click’) (Fig. 14).
- To remove an attachment, grasp its front and back and pull it up o the
epilator head (Fig. 17).
Delicate area cap
- Attach the delicate area cap onto the epilating head for more comfortable
epilating of delicate areas such as underarms and bikini area.
- You can also use the delicate area cap for precise epilating of facial hair
such as upper lip.
Do not use the appliance to epilate eyelashes, eyebrows or scalp hair.
Eciency cap
- Attach the eciency cap onto the epilating head to keep skin tight and help
reduce pain while epilating.
Body exfoliation brush
- Remove the epilator head by pressing the release button on the back of the
appliance (Fig. 10).
- Attach the body exfoliation brush to the coupling unit and then attach to
the appliance handle. (Fig. 18) The body exfoliation brush helps remove
dead skin cells.
Do not use the body exfoliation brush on your face.
Callus removal
Note: The callus removal head is only intended for use on feet.
You can use the callus removal disk in 3 dierent ways, depending on the area
or callus you want to treat.
1 To treat a large, at area, use the entire disk (Fig. 19). Make sure you place
the disk at onto the skin for good control during use.
2 For precision treatment of smaller areas and good visibility of the treated
area (Fig. 20), use the top part of the disk that sticks out beyond the top of
the head (Fig. 21).
3 For precision treatment and for bung away hard skin very quickly, use the
narrow edge of the protruding top part of the disk (Fig. 22).
Move the disk back and forth gently over the skin you want to treat. Do not
push too hard. When you push too hard, the disk might stop rotating.
Shaving
Do not use the shaving head if the foil damaged or broken, as injury may occur.
- Use the shaving head to shave your legs, underarms and bikini line.
- Attach the shaving head comb onto the shaving head to shave hairs to a
length of 1/8in/3mm (Fig. 23). When you remove the comb, always grasp
the comb on the sides (Fig. 24).
- To shave legs and bikini line, always move the appliance gently over the
skin against the direction of hair growth.
- To shave underarms, place one arm behind your head and move the
appliance up and down and from left to right.
Trimming
- Use the trimmer head to trim hard-to-reach areas in the bikini zone.
- Attach the trimmer head comb onto the trimmer head to trim hairs in the
bikini zone to a length of 1/8in/3mm (Fig. 25).
- To create precise lines, place the trimmer head perpendicular onto the skin
(Fig. 26).
Caution: Do not use the trimmer head without the comb on intimate areas
other than the bikini line as this could cause injury.
Overheat protection
Note: To avoid overheating of the product, do not press the product too
hard onto your skin. The product works best when you move it over your skin
without exerting any pressure.

INFORMACIÓN IMPORTANTE
PRECAUCIÓN
- Por motivos de higiene, se recomienda que solo una persona utilice el
producto.
- Nunca use aire comprimido, bras, agentes de limpieza abrasivos ni
líquidos agresivos como gasolina o acetona para limpiar el producto.
- Apague el producto antes de retirar o colocar los accesorios y antes de
limpiarlo.
- Cuando enjuague el producto o los accesorios, asegúrese siempre de
revisar que el agua no esté demasiado caliente (100 °F máximo) para evitar
quemarse las manos.
- Los métodos que eliminan el vello de raíz pueden causar vellos encarnados
y lesiones menores en la piel. Consulte a su médico si tiene alguna duda
respecto del uso de una depiladora.
- No use la depiladora si tiene venas varicosas, erupciones, manchas, así
como tampoco si la piel está irritada, si tiene vellos encarnados o una
tendencia a sufrir de vellos encarnados. Consulte primero a su médico.
- Cualquier lesión pequeña que se origine por la eliminación del vello puede
permitir que las bacterias penetren en el lugar de la lesión y, potencialmente,
causen pequeñas cicatrices o un cambio en la pigmentación de la piel. Se
puede minimizar el riesgo de infección al limpiar cuidadosamente los discos
giratorios antes o después de cada uso (ver ‘Limpieza’).
- La depiladora solo debe utilizarse después de una consulta previa con su
médico si tiene o si sufre:
- Heridas abiertas
- Eczema, psoriasis (eczema con escamas), reacciones cutáneas
inamatorias como foliculitis, erupciones cutáneas o la tendencia a
alergias o a reacciones alérgicas cutáneas
- Inmunodeciencia o trastornos inmunitarios
- Rosácea o venas varicosas
- Está embarazada
- Inmunidad cutánea reducida como consecuencia de diabetes,
embarazo, enfermedad de Raynaud, etc.
- Hemolia
- Lunares, protuberancias en la piel, etc.
- Si ha ingerido medicamentos hormonales o comenzará a hacerlo, o si ha
estado embarazada recientemente, el cambio en sus niveles de hormonas
puede afectar el grosor, el color o la cantidad de crecimiento de vello. Esto
se debe a cambios hormonales, no a este método de eliminación del vello.
- No utilice aceites de baño o ducha cuando depile piel húmeda, ya que esto
puede provocar irritación cutánea grave.
- Limpie el cabezal de depilación después de cada uso (ver ‘Limpieza’).
