is between 15 °C and 35 °C. In case the

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.
We recommend to epilate once a week
during the first month of usage.
• When epilating for the first time, it is
advisable to epilate in the evening, so
that any possible reddening can disap-
pear overnight. To relax the skin we
recommend applying a moisturizing
cream after epilating.
• Epilation is easier and more comfortable
when the hair is at the optimum length
of 2 to 5 mm. If hairs are longer, we
recommend that you first shave and
epilate the shorter, re-growing hairs
after 3 to 5 days.
• Fine, re-growing hairs might not grow up
to the skin surface. The regular use of
massage sponges (e.g. while showering)
or exfoliation peelings helps preventing
in-grown hair as the gentle scrubbing
action removes the upper skin layer and
fine hairs can get through to the skin
surface.
Dry/wet usage
• When using the appliance on dry skin,
your skin must be free from grease or
cream.
• The appliance can be used on wet skin,
even under running water. Make sure
that the skin is very moist. In order to
achieve optimum gliding conditions for
the appliance, you may use a shower
gel while epilating.
How to epilate (see picture section A)
Always stretch your skin while epilating.
Hold the appliance at a right angle (90°)
against your skin and guide it slowly and
without pressure against the hair growth in
the direction of the switch. The skin contact
cap (1) provides a close skin contact and
adapts to all body areas.
The massage cap (7, available with models
5-531 and 5-541) can be used instead of
the skin contact cap (1). It stimulates the
skin to make the epilation process more
comfortable.
Leg epilation
Epilate your legs in an upward direction.
When epilating behind the knee, keep the
leg stretched out straight.
Underarm and bikini line epilation
Especially at the beginning these areas
are particularly sensitive to pain.
We recommend starting with speed I.
With repeated usage the pain sensation
will diminish.
Before epilating, thoroughly clean the
respective area to remove residue (like
deodorant).
When epilating the underarm, keep your
arm raised up and guide the appliance in
different directions in order to catch all
hairs that might grow in various directions.
