Braun Silk·épil 5 has been designed
to make the removal of unwanted hair
efficient, gentle and easy. Its epilation
system removes hair at the root, leaving
your skin smooth for about 19 days.
The epilation head
40 tweezers that are uniquely arranged
to remove hair in a single stroke, for
unprecedented efficiency. The SoftLift
tips integrated in the epilation head make
sure that even short hairs (0.5 mm) and
flat lying hairs are removed thoroughly at
the root.
It comes with two different attachments:
A
The Dual Massage System gently
stimulates the skin before and soothes
it after the hair is pulled out to
significantly reduce the pain sensation.
a
The EfficiencyPro cap easily fits your
body curves for a fast and pleasant
epilation session. It ensures maximum
skin contact at the optimum usage
position thus enabling more effective
hair removal.
The «smartlight» incorporated in the
switch reproduces an almost daylight
condition, thus revealing even the finest
hair and giving you a better control for
improved epilation efficiency.
Important
• This appliance must never be used
near water (e.g. a filled wash basin,
bathtub or shower).
• Keep the appliance out of the reach of
children.
• 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.

General information on epilation
All methods of hair removal at the root
can lead to ingrowing 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 or immune deficiency.
Some useful tips
Epilation is easier and more comfortable
when the hair is at the optimum length of
2–5 mm (0.08–0.2 in.) If hairs are longer,
we recommend that you either shave first
8
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.
The regular use of massage sponges
(e.g. after showering) or exfoliation
peelings helps to prevent ingrowing hair
as the gentle scrubbing action removes
the upper skin layer and fine hair can get
through to the skin surface.

• 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.

• Your skin must be dry and free from
grease or cream.
