6. Initial use
• Remove the packaging.
• Check the device, power supply and cables for damage.
• Connect the device to the mains power. The device must be switched off at this time.
• Route the cable safely so that there is no risk of anyone tripping over it.
• Charge the device for approx. 90 minutes before the first use.
• If the charger indicator lamps flash slowly this means that the battery is charging. Once the dis-
play is permanently illuminated, the device is fully charged.
• Then you can begin using the device either on battery power or using the mains cable.
• If the charger indicator lamps flash rapidly during battery operation, the battery is empty.
• Charge the device by placing it on the station or connecting it to the mains adapter.
• One charge is sufficient for approx. 60 minutes of cordless operation. After that, you can con-
tinue to use the device via mains operation.
CAUTION
• For hygiene reasons, you should not share this device with anyone else.
• When switched on, the device should not come into contact with other areas of skin
(e.g. eyelashes, head hair etc.), or with clothes or cords, to avoid injury as well as block-
ages or damage to the device.
• Do not use the device on irritated skin, varicose veins, rashes, spots, (hairy) birthmarks
or wounds without consulting a doctor beforehand. The same applies to patients with
weakened immune systems, diabetes, haemophilia and immune insufficiency.
Note
• Batteries do not have their full load capacity from the beginning. In order to achieve the
full load capacity of the batteries, they should be fully charged prior to initial operation.
Batteries are fully charged after approx. 10 charges. The batteries should not be fully
discharged as this could damage them.
• The epilator can be used on dry or wet hair.
• When used on dry skin, the skin must be completely dry and free from grease.
• When used on wet skin, it is important that the skin is sufficiently damp so that the de-
vice can glide optimally over the skin. Epilating is easiest after a shower or bath.
• Do not use any cream before epilating.
• Epilation is easier and more comfortable if the hairs are at the optimal length of 2-5 mm.
• If the hairs are longer, we recommend that you first shave the area and after 1-2 weeks
epilate the shorter regrowth.
Thoroughly clean the epilator attachment before epilating. This reduces the risk of infection as
much as possible.
7. Usage
• Press the on/off button to switch on the device.
• Press the button again to increase the speed.
• The "Epilight" function ensures optimal lighting conditions so that you can see and remove
even the finest hairs.
• Hold the skin taught with your free hand to help lift the hairs.
• Move the device slowly, steadily and without pressure over the skin, with the "Epilight" side
pointed against the direction of hair growth. Make sure you hold the device vertically at a 90°
angle to the skin. As hair doesn't always grow in one direction, it can be useful to move the de-
vice in various directions over the skin to achieve an optimal result.
