Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to

Philips!To fully benefit from the support that Philips offers, register your product at www.philips.com/welcome.

With your new epilator you can remove unwanted hair quickly, easily and effectively. It is suitable for removing hair from your legs, underarms and bikini line.

The rotating discs catch even the shortest hairs (down to 0.5mm) and pull them out by the root.

The hairs that grow back are soft and thin. Epilating with this new appliance leaves your skin smooth and hair-free for several weeks.

This epilator comes with the following attachments:

Sensitive area cap

The sensitive area cap has been specially designed to epilate sensitive areas, such as your underarms and bikini line. It minimises the pulling sensation of epilation in sensitive areas with long-lasting results.

Double wavy massage attachment

The double wavy massage attachment helps to make the depilation extra gentle. It minimises the pulling sensation and gives a more pleasant sensation during epilation.The massage attachment pivots for optimal contour following and can be easily detached for better cleaning.

Important

Read this user manual carefully before you use the appliance and save it for future reference.

Danger

-- Keep the appliance and the adapter dry.

-- Do not use the appliance near or over a washbasin or bath filled with water (Fig. 2).

-- Do not use the appliance in the bath or in the shower (Fig. 3).

-- If you use the appliance in the bathroom, do not use an extension cord (Fig. 4).

Warning

-- Only use the appliance in combination with the adapter supplied.

-- Do not use the appliance or the adapter if it is damaged.

-- If the adapter is damaged, always have it replaced with one of the original type in order to avoid a hazard.

-- The adapter contains a transformer. Do not cut off the adapter to replace it with another plug, as this causes a hazardous situation.

-- This appliance is not intended for use by persons

(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

-- Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Caution

-- Only epilate the underarms and bikini line with the sensitive area cap attached.

-- This appliance is only intended for removing women’s body hair on areas below the neck: underarms, bikini area and legs. Do not use it for any other purpose.

-- To prevent damage and injuries, keep the running appliance (with or without attachment) away from scalp hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, clothes, threads, cords, brushes etc.

-- Do not use the appliance on irritated skin or skin with varicose veins, rashes, spots, moles (with hairs) or wounds without consulting your doctor first.

People with a reduced immune response or people who suffer from diabetes mellitus, haemophilia or immunodeficiency should also consult their doctor first.

-- Your skin may become a little red and irritated the first few times you use the epilator.This phenomenon is absolutely normal and quickly disappears. As

you use the appliance more often, your skin gets used to epilation, skin irritation decreases and regrowth becomes thinner and softer. If the irritation has not disappeared within three days, we advise you to consult a doctor.

-- Do not use the epilating head, sensitive area cap or double wavy massage attachment if it is damaged or broken, as this may cause injury.

Electromagnetic fields (EMF)

This Philips appliance complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF). If handled properly and according to the instructions in this user manual, the appliance is safe to use based on scientific evidence available today.

Using the appliance

Note:Clean the epilating head before first use.

Epilation tips

-- When you use the appliance for the first time, we advise you to try it out on an area with only light hair growth to get accustomed to the epilation process.

-- Epilation is easier just after taking a bath or shower.

Make sure your skin is completely dry when you start epilating.

-- Make sure your skin is clean, entirely dry and free from grease. Do not use any cream before you start epilating.

-- Epilation is easier and more comfortable when the hair has the optimum length of 3–4 mm. If the hairs are longer, we recommend that you shave first and epilate the shorter regrowing hairs after 1 or 2 weeks.

-- When you epilate for the first time, we advise you to epilate in the evening, so that any reddening that develops can disappear overnight.

-- While epilating stretch your skin with your free hand. This lifts up the hairs and helps to minimise the pulling sensation.

-- For optimal performance, place the appliance on the skin at right angles (90°) with the on/off slide pointing in the direction in which you are going to move the appliance. Guide the appliance across the skin against the direction of hair growth in a slow, continuous movement without exerting any pressure.

-- On some areas, e.g. the underarms, hair may grow in different directions. In this case, it may be helpful to move the appliance in different directions to achieve optimal results.

-- To relax the skin, we advise you to apply a moisturising cream after epilation.

-- Fine hair that regrows might not grow up to the skin surface.The regular use of an exfoliating sponge or cream (e.g. during showering) 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.

Connecting the appliance

1Insert the appliance plug into the appliance (Fig. 5).

2Insert the adapter into the wall socket.

Epilating the legs

If you are new to epilation, we advise you to start epilating with the double wavy massage element. This attachment relaxes the skin and minimises the pulling sensation of epilation.

If you already have some experience with epilation, you can simply use the epilating head without any attachment.

Only use the double wavy massage attachment on your legs.

1Put the double wavy massage attachment  on the epilating head (Fig. 6).

The procedure for placing the attachments onto the appliance is the same for all attachments.

2Select the desired speed to switch on the appliance (Fig. 7).

Preferably use speed II. Switch to speed I for areas with little hair growth, for hard-to-reach areas and for areas where bones are located directly beneath the skin, such as knees and ankles.

3Stretch the skin with your free hand to make the hairs stand upright.

4Place the epilator perpendicularly onto the skin with the on/off slide pointing in the direction in which you are going to move the appliance (Fig. 8).

5Move the appliance slowly over the skin, against the direction of hair growth.

Press the appliance lightly onto the skin.

Epilating the underarms and bikini line

Your epilator comes with a sensitive area cap that reduces the number of active epilating discs.This makes the appliance ideal for epilating the sensitive areas of the body, such as the underarms and bikini line.The first few times you use the appliance, these areas are particularly sensitive to pain, but after repeated use the pain sensation diminishes.

Note:You get the best results in the most comfortable way when the hairs are not too long (approx.4mm).

1Thoroughly clean the area to be epilated to remove any residues of deodorant, cream etc.Then dab the area dry.

2Put the sensitive area cap on the epilating head (Fig. 9).

3Switch on the appliance.

Preferably use speed II. Switch to speed I for areas with little hair growth and for hard-to-reach areas.

4Stretch the skin with your free hand.When epilating the underarms, raise your arm to stretch the skin.

5Place the appliance perpendicularly onto your skin, with the on/off slide pointing in the direction in which you are going to move the appliance.

6Move the appliance slowly over the skin, against the direction of the hair growth.

-- Epilate your bikini line as shown in the figure (Fig. 10). -- Epilate your underarms as shown in the figure. Move

the appliance in different directions (Fig. 11).
