Charging the epilator

Charging the epilator takes approximately 1 hour. When the epilator is fully

charged, it has a cordless operating time of up to 30 minutes.

1 Switch off the appliance before you charge it. Then connect it to a wall

socket. (Fig. 3)

, The charging light ashes white to indicate that the appliance is

charging. (Fig. 4)

, When the battery is fully charged, the charging light lights up white

continuously for 20 minutes and then goes out (Fig. 5).

Battery low or empty

- When the battery is almost empty, the charging light starts to ash red. When

this happens, the battery still contains enough energy for a few minutes of

epilating.

- When the battery is completely empty, the charging light lights up red

continuously. To charge the epilator, see section ‘Charging’ above.

Using the epilator

Clean the epilating head and charge the appliance fully before you use the

appliance for the rst time.

Note: You cannot use the appliance while it is connected to the mains.

Epilating tips

- Wet: If you are new to epilation, we advise you to start epilating on wet skin,

as water relaxes the skin and makes epilation less painful and more gentle. The

appliance is waterproof and can be safely used in the shower or bathtub. (Fig. 6)

Tip: Use a small amount of your common shower gel or foam to ensure better gliding.

- Dry: If you epilate dry, epilation is easier just after taking a bath or shower.

Make sure your skin is completely dry when you start epilating.

- Dry: Make sure your skin is clean and free from grease. Do not apply any

cream to your skin before you start to epilate.

- General: We advise you to epilate before you go to bed at night, as skin

irritation usually disappears overnight.

- General: Epilation is easier and more comfortable when the hairs have a

length of 3-4 mm. If the hairs are longer, we recommend that you shave rst

and epilate the shorter regrowing hairs after 1 or 2 weeks. (Fig. 7)
