How to epilate

1 Turning on

Press one of the lock keys (4a) and
turn the switch clockwise to setting 2
(optimum setting). For reduced speed,
choose setting 1 (soft setting).
The «smartlight» comes on instantly
and shines as long as the appliance is
switched on. It reproduces an almost
daylight condition, thus revealing even
the finest hair and giving you a better
control for improved epilation efficiency.

2 How to guide the appliance

Always stretch your skin when epilating.
Always make sure that the epilation area
between the massaging rollers is in
contact with your skin.
The pivoting caps automatically adapt to
the contour of your skin.
Guide the appliance in a slow, continu-
ous movement without pressure against
the hair growth, in the direction of the
switch. As hair can grow in different
directions, it may also be helpful to
guide the appliance in different direc-
tions to achieve optimum results. The
pulsating movement of the massaging
rollers stimulate and relax the skin for a
gentler epilation.
If you are used to the sensation of
epilation and prefer a faster way of
removing hair, attach the Efficiency cap
(1b) replacing the massage system (1a).

3 Leg epilation
Epilate your legs from the lower leg in an

upward direction. When epilating behind
the knee, keep the leg stretched out
straight.

4 Underarm and bikini line epilation
For this specific application, the narrow

epilation head (7) has been developed.
Thanks to its specific design adapted to
the contours of these areas, it provides a
gentle and thorough epilation.

Please be aware that especially at the

beginning, these areas are particularly
sensitive to pain. With repeated usage
the pain sensation will diminish. For more
comfort, ensure that the hair is at the
optimum length of 2-5 mm.

Before epilating, thoroughly clean the

respective area to remove residues (like
deodorant). Then carefully dab dry with
a towel. When epilating the underarm,
keep your arm raised up so that the skin
is stretched and guide the appliance in
different directions. As skin may be more
sensitive directly after epilation, avoid
using irritating substances such as deo-
dorants with alcohol.

Cleaning the epilation head
Before cleaning, unplug the appliance.
Regular cleaning ensures better performance.
Brush cleaning:
5 Remove the cap (1) and brush it out.
6 Thoroughly clean the tweezers from the

rear side of the epilator head with the
brush dipped into alcohol. While doing so,
turn the tweezer element manually. This
cleaning method ensures best hygienic
conditions for the epilation head.

Cleaning under running water:
7 Remove the cap. Hold the appliance with

the epilation head under running water.
Then press the release button (5) to
remove the epilation head (2).

Thoroughly shake both, the epilation

head and the appliance to make sure that
