When epilating for the first time, it is
advisable to epilate in the evening, so that
any possible reddening can disappear
overnight. To relax the skin we recommend
applying a moisture cream after epilation.
Fine hair which re-grows might not grow
up to the skin surface. The regular use of
massage sponges (e.g. after showering)
or exfoliation peelings helps to prevent in-
growing hair as the gentle scrubbing
action removes the upper skin layer and
fine hair can get through to the skin
surface.

How to epilate
1 To turn on the appliance, slide switch
4
to setting «2»
(«2»= normal speed, «1» = reduced
speed).
2 Rub your skin to lift short hairs.
For optimal performance, hold the
appliance at a right angle (90°) against
your skin and guide it without pressure
against the hair growth, in the direction
of the switch. Both rolls of the EverSoft
attachment should always be kept in
contact with the skin, allowing the
pulsating movements to stimulate and
relax the skin for a gentler epilation.
3
Leg epilation
Epilate your legs from the lower leg in
an upward direction. When epilating
behind the knee, keep the leg stretched
out straight.
4
Underarm and bikini line epilation
Use tests monitored by dermatolo-
gists have revealed that you can also
epilate the underarm and the bikini line.
Please be aware that these areas are
particularly sensitive to pain. With
repeated usage the pain sensation will
diminish.
Before epilating, thoroughly clean the
respective area to remove residue (like
deodorant). Then carefully dab dry with
a towel. When epilating the underarm,
keep your arm raised up and guide the
appliance in different directions.
Cleaning the epilation head
5 After epilating, unplug the appliance
and clean the epilation head:
First take off the EverSoft attachment
1
and brush out the rolls.
6 Thoroughly clean the tweezer element
with the cleaning brush and also with
alcohol. While cleaning, you can turn
the tweezer element manually. To
remove the epilation head, press the
release buttons
3
on the left and right
and pull it off.
7 Give the top of the housing a quick
clean with the brush. Replace the
epilation head and the EverSoft
attachment.
