point for batteries. Always remove the non-rechargeable batteries
before you discard and hand in the appliance at an official collection

troubleshooting
This chapter summarises the most common problems you could
encounter with the appliances. If you are unable to solve the problem with
the information below, contact the Consumer Care Centre in your country.
Solution
Make sure the socket you use to charge the epilator is live.
The charging light goes on to indicate that the epilator
is charging. If you connect the epilator to a socket in a
bathroom cabinet, you may need to switch on the light in the
bathroom to make sure the socket is live.
When the charging light lights up red continuously, the
batteries are empty and you need to charge the epilator for
approx. 1 hour. Note: You have to charge the epilator fully
before first use.
To deactivate the travel lock, press and hold the on/off button
for 3 seconds until the speed lights flash white 2 times. You
can also connect the epilator to the mains with the adapter
to deactivate the travel lock.
