Epilation
• When epilating on dry skin, your skin
must be free from grease or cream.
• The appliance can be used on wet
skin, even under running water. Make
sure that the skin is very moist. In
order to achieve optimum gliding
conditions for the appliance, you may
use a shower gel while epilating.
The epilation head (2) is equipped with
different caps (1, 7 or 8 depending on
model). Choose the cap according to
your needs:
Skin contact cap (1): provides a close
skin contact and adapts to all body areas.
Massage cap (7): can be used instead
of the skin contact cap (1). It stimulates
the skin to make the epilation process
more comfortable.
Always stretch your skin while epilating.
Hold the appliance at a right angle (90°)
against your skin and guide it in a slow,
continuous motion against the hair
growth in the direction of the switch.
Use on legs: Epilate your legs in an
upward direction. When epilating behind
the knee, keep the leg stretched out
straight. Keep your leg stretched out
straight when removing hair in the area
behind the knee.
