Important

Read this important information carefully before you use the appliance and save it for future reference.
Danger

Keep the adapter dry. (Fig. 1)

Warning

If the adapter is damaged, always have it replaced with one of the original types in order to avoid a hazard.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Do not cut off the adapter to replace it with another plug, as this causes a hazardous situation.

Caution

This appliance is only intended for removing women’s body hair in areas below the neck.
To prevent damage and injuries, keep the operating appliance (with or without attachment) away from clothes, threads, cords, brushes, etc.
Do not use the appliance on irritated skin or skin with varicose veins, rashes, spots, moles (with hairs), or wounds without consulting your doctor first.
People with a reduced immune response or people who suffer from diabetes mellitus, hemophilia, or immunodeficiency should also consult their doctor first.
Your skin may become a little red and irritated the first few times you use the epilator. This is normal and quickly disappears. As you use the appliance more often, your skin gets used to epilation, skin irritation decreases and regrowth becomes thinner and softer. If the irritation has not disappeared within three days, we advise you to consult a doctor.
Do not use the epilating head, the shaving head, or the trimming comb if they are damaged or broken, as this may cause injury.
Do not clean the appliance with water that is hotter than the shower temperature (max. 40°C).
Charge, use, and store the appliance at a temperature between 10°C and 30°C.
Make sure the socket is live when you charge the appliance.
Do not use bath or shower oils when you epilate wet skin, as this may cause serious skin irritation.
Noise level: Lc= 76 dB(A).
