Charging
• Before use, charge the appliance. For best
performance, we recommend that you always
use a fully charged appliance. Using the special
cord set, connect the appliance to an electrical
outlet with the motor switched off. Charging
time is approximately 1 hour.
• The charging light (5) flashes green (+) to show
that the appliance is being charged. When the
battery is fully charged, the green charging
light shines permanently. Once fully charged,
use the appliance without the cord.
• A red flashing charging light (–) shows that it is
time to reconnect the appliance to an electrical
outlet via the special cord set in order to
recharge it.
• A full charge provides up to 40 minutes of
cordless operation time.
• Wet usage might reduce the operation time. We
recommend that you recharge the appliance
after each use.
• The best temperature range for charging, using
and storing the appliance is between 59 °F and
95 °F. In case the temperature is far beyond
this range, charging might take longer and the
cordless operation time might be reduced.
Overheating protection
As a safety feature to avoid the unlikely event
of the appliance overheating, it may happen
that the charging light (5) shines red for
8 seconds and then the appliance turns off
automatically. In this case, turn the switch
back to the position «O» (off) and let the
appliance cool down.
How to operate the appliance
Press one of the lock keys (4a) and turn the switch
(4) clockwise to position «I» or «II». The Smartlight
(3) shines as long as the appliance is switched on.
This provides better visibility of fine hairs.
To remove the epilation head (2), press the
release button (6). To change caps, press their
lateral ribs and pull off.
I Epilation
Epilation tips:
If you have not used an epilator before, or if
you have not epilated for a long period of time,
it may take a short time for your skin to adapt
to epilation. The discomfort experienced in the
beginning will decrease considerably with
repeated use as the skin adapts to the process.
When epilating for the first time, it is advisable
to epilate in the evening, so that any possible
reddening can disappear overnight. To relax the
skin we recommend applying a moisturizing
cream after epilation.
Epilation is easier and more comfortable when
the hair is between 0.5 - 5 mm (0.02 – 0.2 in)
long. If hairs are longer, we recommend that you
shave first and let the hair grow back to at least
0.5 mm length.
Dry usage: Your skin must be dry and free from
grease or cream.
Wet usage: Make sure your skin is very moist in
order to achieve optimum gliding conditions for
the appliance.
How to epilate
Make sure that the epilation head (2) is clean and
provided with a cap (1a or 1b).
A Select speed «I» for a gentle epilation, speed
«II» for an efficient epilation.
