Additionally, you may apply some shower gel
to the moist skin for results that will leave
your skin beautifully soft and smooth after
wet epilation.
Before use, always make sure that epilation
head is clean.
Always make sure that the epilation head
(2) is provided with a cap (1).
To change caps, press their lateral ribs and
pull off.
To change heads, press the release button

A How to epilate
1 Turning on
Press one of the lock keys and turn the
switch clockwise to setting 2 (optimum
setting). For reduced speed, choose
setting 1 (soft setting).
The «smartlight» comes on instantly
and shines as long as the appliance is
switched on. It reproduces an almost
daylight condition, thus revealing even
the finest hair and giving you a better
control for improved epilation efficiency.
2 How to guide the appliance
Always stretch your skin when epilating.
Always make sure that the epilation area
between the massaging rollers is in
contact with your skin.
The pivoting caps automatically adapt to
the contour of your skin.
Guide the appliance in a slow, continu-
ous movement without pressure against
the hair growth, in the direction of the
switch. As hair can grow in different
directions, it may also be helpful to
guide the appliance in different direc-
tions to achieve optimum results. The
pulsating movement of the massaging
rollers stimulate and relax the skin for a
gentler epilation.

If you are used to the sensation of
epilation and prefer a faster way of
removing hair, attach the Efficiency cap
(1b) replacing the massage system (1a).
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
For this specific application, the underarm
cap (8) has been developed. Placed on the
epilation head (2), it perfectly follows the
contours of these areas, providing a gentle
and thorough epilation.
Please be aware that especially at the
beginning, these areas are particularly
sensitive to pain. With repeated usage the
pain sensation will diminish. For more
comfort, ensure that the hair is at the
optimum length of 2-5 mm.
Before epilating, thoroughly clean the
respective area to remove residues (like
deodorant). Then carefully dab dry with a
towel. When epilating the underarm, keep
your arm raised up so that the skin is
stretched and guide the appliance in
different directions. As skin may be more
sensitive directly after epilation, avoid
using irritating substances such as deo-
dorants with alcohol.
5 Facial epilation
Place the precision cap (9) onto the
epilation head (2) and your Silk·épil is
perfectly suited for conveniently removing
any unwanted hair from the face or other
sensitive areas.
Prior to epilation, we recommend cleaning
the skin with alcohol to promote good
hygiene.
When epilating the face, stretch the skin
with one hand and slowly guide the
