Models 9- 549, 9-561, 9-579:
Connect the charging stand (10) to an
electrical outlet via the special cord set
and place the appliance onto the stand
for charging.
The charging light (5) flashes green to
show that the epilator is being charged.
When the battery is fully charged, the
charging light shines permanently. Once
fully charged, use the appliance without
cord.
When the charging light flashes red,
reconnect the appliance to an electrical
outlet via the special cord set to recharge.
A full charge provides up to 40 minutes
of cordless operation time.
Wet usage might reduce the operation
time. We recommend that you recharge
the appliance after each use.
The best temperature range for charging,
using and storing the appliance is
between 15 °C and 35 °C. In case the
temperature is far beyond this range,
the charging time might be longer
whereas the cordless operation time
might be reduced.
Overheating protection
As a safety feature to avoid the unlikely
event of the appliance overheating, it may
happen that the charging light shines red
for 8 seconds and then the appliance
turns off automatically. In this case, turn
the switch back to the position «0» (off)
and let the appliance cool down.
How to operate the appliance
Switch on the appliance by pressing a
lock key (4a) and turning the switch (4)
clockwise to position «I» or «II».
The Smartlight (3) shines as long as the
appliance is switched on. This provides
better visibility of fine hairs or skin.
To remove the epilation head, press the
release button (6). To change caps (1a),
(1b) or (8), press their lateral ribs and pull
off.
A Epilation
Epilation tips
If you have not used an epilator before, or
if you have not epilated for a longer 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.
When epilating for the first time, it is advis-
able to epilate in the evening, so that any
possible reddening can disappear over-
night. To relax the skin we recommend
applying a moisture cream after epilation.
Epilation is easier and more comfortable
when the hair is at the optimum length of
2–5 mm. If hairs are longer, we recom-
mend that you shave first and epilate the
shorter, re-growing hairs after 1 or 2
weeks. Alternatively, you can trim the
hairs to 5 mm length.
Fine, regrowing hairs 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-grown hair as the gentle scrubbing
action removes the upper skin layer and
fine hair can get through to the skin sur-
face.
Dry usage: Your skin must be dry and free
from grease or cream.
Wet usage: 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. After each wet usage, clean
the appliance under running water.
How to epilate
Before use, always make sure that the
epilation head (2) is clean and provided
with a cap (1a or 1b).
1 Select speed «I» for a gentle epilation
and speed «II» for an efficient epilation.
