not recharge the batteries until

they are completely dead. This

extends their life. Avoid daily

charging.

USE

___________________________________________________

Special features

Your appliance uses micro-massage

technology, which reduces the pain

when hairs are removed to a

minimum.

The appliance thoroughly removes

your hair at the roots and it takes 4

to 6 weeks to grow back.

Remove hair

To achieve the best results it is

advisable to take a hot bath or sho-

wer before use, as this opens the

pores.

Use the loofah sponge

supplied to remove

dry skin from the area where you

want to remove hair. Moisten the

sponge with shower gel or soap

and move it in small circles.

This cleans your hair and makes it

supple, therefore

ideally preparing it for removal.

Ensure your skin is clean,

free of grease and completely dry

before removing the hair.

1 Remove the protective

cap from the appliance.

2 Switch on the appliance using

switch ; push down the lock

and slide the switch upwards.

3 Adjust the speed.

– Low for fine hair.

– High for thicker or denser hair.

4 The vibrators on the side ensure

unpleasant sensations are

suppressed during hair removal.

5 Hold the appliance in your palm

of your hand at a 90° angle to

your skin. Do not exert pressure;

merely touch the surface of the

skin.

ENGLISH

USE

___________________________________________________

6 Make short, fast movements -

like brushing or wiping – in the

direction in which the hair

grows.

7 Use your other hand to tauten

the area of skin with the hair to

be removed. Stretch out your leg

to remove hair from the area at

the back of your knee.

8 You can also remove hair from

your thigh in the bikini zone.

9 Remove individual hairs from

your upper lip and

in the cheek area.

10 To remove hair from your

armpits, extend your arm first

to tauten the skin.

Note

If you have not removed the hair

in the bikini zone or under the

arms for a long time, trim them

first with a pair of scissors or a

trimmer.

USE

___________________________________________________

ENGLISH

11 For especially gentle treatment

of the skin, remove cover

and attach the massage

attachment .

Useful tips

When using for the first time, you

may experience slight discomfort

as the hair is removed at the

roots.

This feeling recedes after using

the appliance several times, even

if you have sensitive skin.

When used for the first

time the result lasts for

4 to 6 weeks. After repeated use

your hair will grow more slowly

and more sparsely.

Hold the appliance with a

relaxed and comfortable grip. Do

not exert pressure.

For your safety, the appliance

slows down or switches off

if you exert too much pressure on

the skin.

If reddening or irritation of the

skin appears after use, rub the

area concerned with lotion or a

medical skin cream.

If you have in-growing hairs, take

a bath and use the loofah sponge

supplied

to soften the skin and

the in-grown hairs.

If you have varicose veins

or other health problems

you should definitely consult

your doctor before use.

For hygienic reasons the

appliance should only be used by

one person.
