Philips HP6574/01 Electric Shaver User Manual


 
- If you are not used to epilation, we advise you to start epilating with the optimal performance
cap. This cap ensures optimal skin contact and its pivoting head stretches the skin and prepares
the hairs for epilation.
- If your hairs lie at on your skin, we advise you to use the active hairlifter with active massage.
The active hairlifter with active massage not only lifts up the hairs but its active massaging roller
also minimises the pulling sensation of epilation.
Note: Remove the basic epilation cap before you attach the optimal performance cap or the active
hairlifter with active massage.
1 Squeeze both sides of the basic epilation cap (1) and pull it off the appliance (2) (Fig. 5).
2 Put the desired attachment on the epilating head (Fig. 6).
Note: The procedure for placing the attachments onto the appliance is the same for all attachments.
3 Press the on/off button once to switch on the epilator.
, The epilator starts running at speed II, which is the most efcient speed for epilation. The
bottom speed setting indication II lights up (Fig. 7).
, If you want to use speed I, press the on/off button a second time. The top speed setting
indication I lights up (Fig. 8).
Tip: Speed I is suitable for areas with little hair growth, for hard-to-reach areas and for areas where
bones are located directly beneath the skin, such as knees and ankles.
, When you press the on/off button a third time, the epilator switches off.
4 Stretch the skin with your free hand to make the hairs stand upright.
5 Place the epilating head at an angle of 90° onto the skin with the on/off button pointing in
the direction in which you are going to move the appliance (Fig. 9).
6 Move the appliance slowly over the skin against the direction of hair growth.
- When you use the optimal performance cap, make sure that both rollers of the skin stretcher
always stay in contact with the skin to ensure an optimal result.
- When you use the active hairlifter with active massage, make sure the active massaging roller
and the active hairlifter always stay in contact with the skin. The massaging roller stimulates and
relaxes the skin for a gentler epilation.

The epilator has an integrated overheat protection, which prevents overheating of the appliance.
Note: To avoid overheating of the epilator, do not press the appliance too hard onto your skin. The epilator
works best when you move it over your skin without exerting any pressure.
1 If the overheat protection is activated, the appliance switches off automatically and the speed
setting indications ash red.
2 Let the appliance cool down.
, The lights stop ashing after 30 seconds.
3 When the appliance has cooled down, you can switch it on again. If the lights start to ash
red again, the appliance has not yet cooled down completely.

If you press the epilating head too hard onto your skin or when the rotating tweezers of the
epilating head get blocked (e.g. by clothes etc.), the appliance stops and the speed setting indications
start to ash red for 5 seconds.
1 Check if the rotating tweezers of the epilating head are blocked by turning the tweezers with
your thumb until you can remove whatever is blocking the rotating tweezers.
