Silk·épil SuperSoft Plus Body System is equipped with two different head attachments for epilating and shaving.
The high-precision epilator head is specially designed for a comfortable and longlasting hair removal. Even very short hairs (0.5 mm in length) will thoroughly be removed at the root. In general, regrowing hairs will become finer and thinner. Additionally, the soothing attachment makes the epilation process more gentle. It provides
a pleasant tickle, thus masking the epilation feeling.
The shaver head is perfectly suited for fast and thorough hair removal in delicate body areas, i.e. underarm or bikini line.
Read these use instructions carefully and completely before using the appliance.
Important
•This appliance must never be used in the vicinity of or over water (e.g. a filled wash basin, bathtub or shower).
•Keep the appliance out of the reach of children.
•Before use, check whether your voltage corresponds to the voltage printed on the transformer.
Always use the 12 V transformer, type PI-41-77 D-1.

A Epilation
All methods of hair removal at the roots can lead to minor skin injuries and in-growing hairs. All micro-inju- ries caused by plucking hairs may lead to inflammation through the penetration of bacteria into the skin (e.g. when sliding the appliance over the skin). Thoroughly cleaning the tweezer head before each use minimizes the risk of infection.
Depending on the condition of your skin and hairs, you may experience some irritation (e.g. feeling of pain, skin reddening) when you start using the product. When removing hairs at root level, this is a normal reaction that will quickly disappear again.
If, after 36 hours, your skin still shows irritations, we recommend to contact your physician.

In general, the skin reactions and the sensation of pain tend to diminish considerably with the repeated use of Silk·épil.
If you have any doubts about using this appliance, please consult your physician. In the following cases, this appliance should only be used after prior consultation with a physician:
–eczema, wounds, inflamed skin reactions such as folliculitis (purulent hair follicles)
and varicose veins
–around moles
–reduced immunity of the skin, e.g. diabetes mellitus, during pregnancy, Raynaud’s disease
–haemophilia or immune deficiency.
•Silk·épil is designed to remove hair on legs, but can also be used on all sensitive areas like arms, underarms or at the bikini line.
•When switched on, the appliance must never come in contact with the hair on your head, eyelashes, ribbons, etc. to prevent any danger of injury as well as to prevent blockage or damage
to the appliance.
Underarm and bikini line epilation
Use tests monitored by dermatologists have shown that the epilator head may as well be used underarm and at the bikini line. Be aware that this area is particularly sensitive to pain. However, the pain sensation will diminish with repeated usage.
For this specific application, we would like to give the following advice:
•Before epilating, thoroughly clean the respective area to remove residue (like deodorant). Then dry carefully with a towel using a dabbing action to avoid skin irritations.
•Hair should not be longer than 5 mm.
•After use, apply Silk·épil cream or baby powder (don’t use alcoholic deodorants).
How to operate your Silk·épil
Before starting off, make sure that the epilator head is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. Your skin must be dry and free from grease or cream.
•Plug the cord connector into the socket and plug the transformer into an electrical outlet.
1Select the tweezer grip:
+full tweezer grip
for normal to thicker hair
–reduced tweezer grip for finer hair
•Switching on 0 = Off
1 = For gentle epilation
2 = For normal epilation
3 = For high-speed epilation

2Rub your skin to lift short hairs. Apply the Silk·épil at right angles (90°) against your skin. For best epilation results, make sure that the soothing attachment wheels always keep in contact with the skin surface. Pressing gently, guide it slowly against the
direction of hair growth (see illustration A 2). Underarm, this means guiding the appliance in different directions. Do not press too hard. On bony parts, we recommend to use a lower switch setting.
3When epilating behind the knee, keep the leg stretched out straight; when epilating underarm, your arm should be raised up.
Cleaning the epilator head
4After each use, unplug the appliance. Take off the soothing attachment and brush out the rows of wheels.
5Thoroughly clean the tweezer element with the cleaning brush and also disinfect it with a few drops of Silk·épil cleaning fluid or alcohol. While cleaning, you can turn the tweezer element manually. To take off the epilator head, press the two release bars on the front and back and pull
it off.
6Give the top of the housing a quick clean with the brush. Put back on the epilator head.
Some useful tips
•For the first use or if not having epilated for a long time, we recommend to first shave longer hairs. After 1-2 weeks, the regrowing, short hairs are much easier to epilate.
•In the beginning, it is advisable to epilate in the evening, so that any possible reddening can disappear overnight.
•Hair is easier to remove after bathing or showering (but remember your skin must be completely dry).
•After epilating, we recommend applying Silk·épil cream or another moisture cream to relax the skin and relieve slight skin irritations.
•It may happen that regrowing fine hairs do not manage to get through to the skin surface.
In order to prevent the risk of ingrowing hairs, we recommend the regular use of massage sponges (e.g. after showering) or exfoliation peelings. By a gentle scrubbing action, the upper skin layer is removed and fine hairs can get through to the skin surface.
