During epilation
-- The epilator can be used cordlessly on rechargeable batteries, but it can also be used with the adapter on mains power.
-- 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 epilating head on the skin at an angle of 90° with the on/off button 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, hair may grow in different directions. In this case, it may be helpful to move the appliance in different directions to achieve optimal results.
-- If you sweat during epilation, dab your skin dry with a soft cloth.
-- When you use the optimal performance cap, make sure that both rollers of the skin stretcher always stay in contact with the skin to ensure an optimal result.
-- When you use the active hairlifter with active massage, make sure the active massaging roller and the active hairlifter always stay in contact with the skin.The massaging roller stimulates and relaxes the skin for a gentler epilation.
After epilation
-- To relax the skin, we advise you to apply a moisturising cream immediately after epilation or a few hours after epilation, depending on what is better for your skin.
-- Use a soft deodorant without alcohol or a special deodorising cream for epilated skin after epilating the underarms.
-- Regular use of an exfoliating sponge or cream (e.g. during showering) 24 hours after epilation 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.
Using the epilator
Epilating the legs with the epilator
-- If you already have some experience with epilation, you can simply use the epilating head with the basic epilation cap.
-- If you are not used to epilation, we advise you to start epilating with the optimal performance cap.This cap ensures optimal skin contact and its pivoting head stretches the skin and prepares the hairs for epilation.
-- If your hairs lie flat on your skin, we advise you to use the active hairlifter with active massage. The active hairlifter with active massage not only lifts up the hairs but its active massaging roller also minimises the pulling sensation of epilation.
Note: Remove the basic epilation cap before you attach the optimal performance cap or the active hairlifter with active massage.
1Grab both sides of the basic epilation cap and pull it off the appliance (Fig. 8).
2 Put the desired attachment on the epilating head (Fig. 9).
Note:The procedure for placing the attachments onto the appliance is the same for all attachments.
3Press the on/off button once to switch on the epilator.
,, The epilator starts running at speed II, which is the most efficient speed for epilation.The bottom speed setting indication II lights up (Fig. 10).
,, If you want to use speed I, press the on/off button a second time.The top speed setting indication I lights up (Fig. 11).
