Electromagnetic elds (EMF)
This Philips appliance complies with all standards
regarding electromagnetic elds (EMF).
Epilation tips
- We advise you to epilate before going to bed at
night, as skin irritation usually disappears overnight.
- Epilation is easier just after taking a bath or
shower. Make sure your skin is completely dry
when you start epilating.
- Make sure your skin is clean, entirely dry and
free from grease. Do not use any deodorant,
makeup or cream before you start epilating.
- Epilation is easier and more comfortable when
the hair has the optimum length of 3–4 mm. If
the hairs are longer, we recommend that you
shave rst and epilate the shorter regrowing
hairs after approx. 1 week.
Using the epilator
Inserting the batteries
1 Remove the lid of the battery compartment
by sliding it down (Fig. 2).
2 Insert two AA 1.5V alkaline batteries into the
battery compartment (Fig. 3).
Note: Make sure the + and - poles of the batteries
point
in the direction indicated in the battery compartment.
Note: New batteries offer an operating time of up to
40 minutes.
3 Slide the lid of the battery compartment back
onto the appliance.
Do not let metal objects come into contact with
the battery terminals and do not short-circuit the
batteries.
Epilating with the epilator
The epilator is primarily intended to remove hairs
by the root in the delicate areas such as bikini area,
bikini line, underarms and lower face. You can also
use it to epilate hard-to-reach areas such as knees
and ankles.
1 Thoroughly clean the area to be epilated.
Remove any residues of deodorant, cream
etc. Then dab the skin dry (Fig. 4).
2 Switch on the appliance.
3 Place the epilating head at an angle of 90°
onto the skin with the on/off slide pointing in
the direction in which you are going to move
the appliance (g. 5).
Note: Always stretch the skin with your free hand.
4 To epilate your upper lip, hold the appliance
with the on/off button pointing upwards.
Place the appliance on the skin above your
upper lip at an angle of 90°. Stretch the skin
with your other hand and move the appliance
upwards (g. 6).
5 To epilate the bikini line, stretch the skin with
one hand to make the hairs stand upright and
reduce skin pulling. Place the appliance onto
the skin at an angle of 90° and slowly move it
against the direction of hair growth (g. 7).
6 To epilate the underarms, lift your arm to
stretch the skin. Place the appliance onto
the skin at an angle of 90° and move the
appliance in different directions to catch all
hairs (g. 8).
Do not use this appliance to remove hairs that
grow out of moles.
Do not use this appliance to epilate eyebrows or
eyelashes.
Cleaning and maintenance
Never immerse the epilator in water or any
other liquid, nor rinse it under the tap (Fig. 9).
Never use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents
or aggressive liquids such as petrol or acetone to
clean the appliance.
Note: Make sure the epilator is switched off before
you start to clean it.
Note: Clean the appliance after each use to
ensure better performance.
1 Clean the epilator regularly by removing
loose hairs with the cleaning brush.
Do not switch the appliance on while
brushing (Fig. 10).
2 Clean the appliance with a dry cloth.
