Tips for best epilation results
Please refer to the “Quick User Card” as well.●
The hair removal is not permanent, so after the 2nd use we
●
recommend that you epilate the arms and legs about once
every two weeks.
When epilating for the first time, or using for the first time in a
●
while, we recommend using the beginner cap.
We also recommend warming the skin to soften the skin
before use.
<Using the beginner cap on the epilation head for legs/arms>
The beginner cap narrows the epilating area thus reducing the
number of hairs removed at one time. It provides a more gentle
epilation for beginners and those with sensitive skin.
1. Remove the gentle cap [

2. Attac
Apply the epilator at a 90˚ angle to
●
your skin. Always make sure that the
appliance is in contact with your skin
and press gently while moving it
slowly against the hair growth.
When using the appliance, pull your skin taut where the area
●
is prone to sagging (on the inside of the knees and elbows).
Massaging with a body puff may help to prevent ingrown

hairs.

Replacing the outer foil
We recommend replacing the outer foil [F6] every year and
the inner blade every two years. Remove the outer foil of the
shaver head [F] only when replacing it.
1. While pushing the outer foil gently with the fingers, use a
fingernail to release the plastic panel (b) on the blade
from the hooks (a) on the inside of the frame.
2. The new outer foil should be slightly bent and pushed in
until it is hooked in the frame.
