Philips HP6512-50 - Manual (Page 5)

Put It To The Test
Like many new products, your Epilator may take a
little getting used to. If you are using a hair removal
system for the first time, or if you've been using a
different brand, your skin may need time to adapt
to your new Epilator.
Give yourself a little time to practice and determine
the best comfort settings and speed to remove
hairs quickly, yet comfortably. The rotating discs
grip even the shortest hairs (1/64in./0.5mm) and
remove them at the root. Any regrowth of hairs
tends to be softer - no more stubble! Your legs will
remain smooth for weeks.
To acquaint yourself with how the Epilator works,
be certain to read the instructions and important
information contained in this booklet before using
for the first time.
How To Use Your Epilator
► Use this epilator for its intended household
use as described in this manual.
I Make sure your skin is clean, free from grease
and creams. Do not apply any cream before
using. Hairs are easier to remove after a bath
or a shower, but your skin should be
completely dry before using your Epilator.
I Use the hair lift and massage element if you
are new to epilating.This ensures optimal hair
lifting while relaxing the skin.
► Epilation is easier and more comfortable
when the hair has the optimum length of
1/8 - 5/32in/3-4mm.
I Regular massages with the exfoliation glove at
least 2 days before epilating may help prevent
in-grown hairs.
► If you are using the appliance for the first time,
it is recommended that you begin at an area
with little hair growth to become accustomed
to using your Epilator.
I As the hairs are being removed by the root,
your skin may feel a little discomfort after
using the Epilator for the first time.
This effect will gradually lessen with each use.
I After epilation, regrowth of hairs tends to be
softer both in appearance and in touch.
I After each use, you may want to apply a
nonalcohol based mild cream or body lotion
which will help reduce the possibility of skin
irritation.
n Before first use, clean the epilating head.
