Our products are engineered to meet the highest standards of quality, functionality and design. We hope you thoroughly enjoy using your Braun Silk·épil 7.
Please read the use instructions carefully before using the appliance and keep them for future reference.
Braun Silk·épil 7 has been designed to make the removal of unwanted hair as efficient, gentle and easy as possible. Its proven epilation system removes hair at the root, leaving your skin smooth for weeks. As the hair that re-grows is fine and soft, there will be no more stubble.

Never use the epilation head (2) without cap (1).
General information on epilation
All methods of hair removal at the root can lead to in-growing hair and irritation (e.g. itching, discomfort and reddening of the skin) depending on the condition of the skin and hair. This is a normal reaction and should quickly disappear, but may be stronger when you are removing hair at the root for the first few times or if you have sensitive skin. If, after 36 hours, the skin still shows irritation, we recommend that you contact your physician. In general, the skin reaction and the sensation of pain tend to diminish considerably with the repeated use of Silk·épil. In some cases inflammation of the skin could occur when bacteria penetrate the skin (e.g. when sliding the appliance over the skin).
Thorough cleaning of the epilation head before each use will minimise the risk of infection. 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, candida or immune
deficiency.
Some useful tips
If you have not used an epilator before, or if you have not epilated for a longer period of time, it may take a short time for your skin to adapt to epilation. The discomfort experienced in the beginning will decrease considerably with repeated use as the skin adapts to the process.
Epilation is easier and more comfortable when the hair is at the optimum length of 2-5 mm. If hairs are longer, we recommend that you either shave first and epilate the shorter, re-growing hairs after 1 or 2 weeks. When epilating for the first time, it is advisable to epilate in the evening, so that any possible reddening can disappear overnight. To relax the skin we recommend applying a moisture cream after epilation.
Fine hair which re-grows might not grow up to the skin surface. The regular use of massage sponges (e.g. after showering) or exfoliation peelings helps to prevent in-growing hair as the gentle scrubbing action removes the upper skin layer and fine hair can get through to the skin surface.

Charging
• Before use, charge the appliance. For best performance, we recommend that you always use a fully charged appliance. Using the special cord set, connect the appliance to an electrical outlet with the motor switched off. Charging time is approximately 1 hour.
• The green charging light (5a) flashes to show that the epilator is being charged. When the battery is fully charged, the charging light shines permanently. Once fully charged, use the appliance without cord.
• When the red low-charge light (5b) flashes, reconnect the appliance to an electrical outlet via the special cord set to recharge.
• A full charge provides up to 40 minutes of cordless operation time.
• Wet usage might reduce the operation time. We recommend that you recharge the appliance after each use.
• The best temperature range for charging, using and storing the appliance is between 15 °C and 35 °C. In case the temperature is far beyond this range, charging time might be longer whereas the cordless operation time might be reduced.

Getting prepared for …
… dry usage
Your skin must be dry and free from grease or cream. Optional skin cooling: For the first few epi­lations or if you have sensitive skin, you can use the ice glove, recommended by dermato­logists to help reduce possible skin irritation.
• Ensure that the gel pack has been in the deep freezer (***) for at least 2 hours (for convenience you can store the gel packs in the freezer).
• Insert the gel pack underneath the glove‘s transparent foil. Use only with glove.
• Put transparent (cool) side of the glove on your leg.
• Start cooling for approx. 1/2 minute, longer if needed.
• Epilate the cooled skin area immediately.
• Repeat cooling and epilating until completion.
• While epilating, please ensure your skin is dry.
Important: Apply the ice glove to the same area for no longer than 2 minutes. Keep away from sunlight. Do not use gel pack when damaged. Dispose of in household waste. Do not use if you are hypersensitive, allergic to the cold, or if your skin suffers from sensory disturbances, when suffering from cardiac diseases or arterial circulatory disorders.
… wet usage
The appliance can be used on wet skin, even under running water. Make sure that the skin is really moist in order to achieve optimum gliding conditions for the appliance. After each wet usage, clean the appliance under running water.
• Before use, always make sure that the epilation head is clean.

• Always make sure that the epilation head (2) is provided with a cap.
• To change caps, press their lateral ribs and pull off.
• To change heads, press the release button (6).
How to epilate
The epilation head (2) features the new Close-Grip Technology to ensure extra efficiency especially with short hairs: The 40 tweezers always keep close contact to the skin to remove hairs as short as grain of sand. Thanks to its pivoting feature, it perfectly adapts to the body contours, for maximum thoroughness.
The High-Frequency Massage System (1a) soothes your skin effectively for an ultra gentle epilation.
The EfficiencyPro cap (1b) for fast epilation ensures maximum skin contact, positioning the tweezers at the optimum position at all times.
1 Turning on
• Press one of the lock keys and turn the
switch clockwise to select your preferred
speed setting: «I» = extra gentle «II» = extra efficient
• The «smartlight» comes on instantly
and shines as long as the appliance is
switched on. It reproduces an almost
daylight condition, thus revealing even
the finest hair and giving you a better
control for improved epilation efficiency.
2 How to guide the appliance
• Always stretch your skin when epilating.
• Always make sure that the epilation area
between the massaging rollers is in
contact with your skin.
• The pivoting caps automatically adapt to the contour of your skin.
• Guide the appliance in a slow, continu­ous movement without pressure against the hair growth, in the direction of the switch. As hair can grow in different directions, it may also be helpful to guide the appliance in different direc­tions to achieve optimum results. The pulsating movement of the massaging rollers stimulate and relax the skin for a gentler epilation.
• If you are used to the sensation of epilation and prefer a faster way of removing hair, attach the Efficiency cap (1b) replacing the massage system (1a).
3 Leg epilation Epilate your legs from the lower leg in an
upward direction. When epilating behind the knee, keep the leg stretched out straight.
4 Underarm and bikini line epilation For this specific application, the underarm
head (8) has been developed. Thanks to its specific design adapted to the contours of these areas, it provides a gentle and thorough epilation.
Please be aware that especially at the
beginning, these areas are particularly sensitive to pain. With repeated usage the pain sensation will diminish. For more comfort, ensure that the hair is at the optimum length of 2-5 mm.
Before epilating, thoroughly clean the
respective area to remove residues (like deodorant). When epilating the underarm, keep your arm raised up so that the skin is stretched and guide the appliance in different directions. As skin may be more sensitive directly after epilation, avoid using irritating substances such as deo­dorants with alcohol.
Overheating protection
As a safety feature to avoid the unlikely event of the appliance overheating, it may happen that the red low charge light shines permanently for 8 seconds and then the appliance turns off automatically. In this case, turn the switch back to the position «0» and let the appliance cool down.
5 Cleaning the epilation head Before cleaning, unplug the appliance.
Regular cleaning ensures better performance.
a Brush cleaning: Remove the cap and brush it out. Thoroughly clean the tweezers from the
rear side of the epilator head with the brush dipped into alcohol. While doing so, turn the tweezer element manually. This cleaning method ensures best hygienic conditions for the epilation head.
b Cleaning under running water: After each wet usage, clean the appliance
under running water.
Remove the cap. Hold the appliance under
hot running water. Then press the release button (6) to remove the epilation head.
Thoroughly shake both, the epilation
head and the appliance to make sure that remaining water can drip out. Leave both parts to dry. Before reattaching, make sure that they are completely dry.
For electric specifications, please see printing on the special cord set. The special cord set automatically adapts to any worldwide AC voltage.
