may cause injury.
Apply the shaver head so that the
whole blade is in close contact with
the skin.
Press gently and guide the appliance
slowly against hair growth. Applying
with too much force prevents hairs
from being guided to the blades so
that some areas may be left
unshaved.
Trimmer
It is helpful to use the trimmer only
when you want to cut the long hair.
When the trimmer is up, apply the
blade gently.
Shaving with pre-epilation comb
When the hair is long before epilation,
we recommend you to use a shaver
head with pre-epilation comb.
Place the pre-epilation comb onto
the shaver head, and slide trimmer
up. When the pre-epilation comb is
in place, make sure the comb is in
close contact with the skin.
Further useful tips
• In the beginning, it is advisable to
epilate in the evening so that any
possible reddening can disappear
overnight. When you feel pain or
rash appears, cool the skin with
cold towel.
• Hair is easier to remove after
bathing or showering.
But your skin must be completely
dry!
• In order to prevent the risk of
ingrowing hairs, we recommend
the regular use of massage
sponges, e.g. after showering, or
exfoliation peelings.

Correct usage for best epilation
results
• When the hair is long, it makes
hair removal easier and reduces
pain to trim the hair before
epilation. Leg and arm hair should
be shortened a length of 3 to 5
mm, and underarm and bikini-line
hair to a length of 1 to 2 mm.
• Apply epilator at right angles (90°)
against your skin. For best epilation
results keep in contact with the
skin surface. Press gently and
guide the epilator slowly against
hair growth. (Fig. 3)
• Rub your skin to lift short hairs.
• Move the epilator slowly on the
skin with the skin protector vertically
touching.
