Our products are engineered to meet
the highest standards of quality,
functionality and design. We hope
you thoroughly enjoy your new
Silk·épil.
In the following, we want to make
you familiar with the appliance and
provide some useful information on
epilation. Please read the use in-
structions carefully and completely
before using the appliance.
Braun Silk·épil EverSoft has been
designed to make the removal of un-
wanted hair as efficient, gentle and
easy as possible. Its proven epilation
system removes your hair at the root,
leaving your skin smooth for weeks.
The high-precision epilation head
with its unique arrangement of
tweezers and the integrated feed-in
geometry ensures an efficient
epilation and removes even hair as
short as 0.5 mm at the root. As the
hair that re-grows is fine and soft,
there will be no more stubble.
Important
• This appliance must never be
used near water (e.g. a filled wash
basin, bathtub or shower).
• Keep the appliance out of the
reach of children.
• When switched on, the appliance
must never come in contact with
the hair on your head, eyelashes,
ribbons, etc. to prevent any
danger of injury as well as to
prevent blockage or damage to
the appliance.
• Before use, check whether your
voltage corresponds to the voltage
printed on the transformer.
Always use the country-specific
12 V transformer plug supplied with
the product.
General information on epilation
Silk·épil is designed to remove hair
on legs, but it can also be used on all
sensitive areas like forearms, the
underarm or the bikini line.
All methods of hair removal at the
root can lead to in-growing hair and
irritation (e.g. itching, discomfort or
reddening of the skin), depending on
the condition of the skin and hair.
This is a normal reaction and should
quickly disappear, but may be
stronger when you are removing hair
at the root for the first few times or if
you have sensitive skin.
If, after 36 hours, the skin still shows
irritation, we recommend that you
contact your physician.
In general, the skin reaction and the
sensation of pain tend to diminish
considerably with the repeated use
of Silk·épil.
In some cases inflammation of the
skin could occur when bacteria
penetrate the skin (e.g. when sliding
the appliance over the skin).
