We hope you thoroughly enjoy using your Braun Silk·épil 9. Please read the use instructions carefully before using the appliance and keep them for future reference. Braun Silk·épil 9 SkinSpa offers a complete system for beautiful skin: • The extra wide epilation head (2) removes the shortest hair (0. [. . . ] 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 deodorants with alcohol. E Facial epilation For removing any unwanted hair from the face or other sensitive areas, use the facial cap (8) as an optional attachment to be placed on the epilation head (2). For the first few usages, we recommend that you select speed «I» in order to get used to epilation in sensitive areas. Prior to epilation, we recommend cleaning the skin thoroughly with a disinfecting toner containing alcohol. When epilating the face, stretch the skin with one hand and slowly guide the epilator with your other hand in the direction of the switch. F Cleaning the epilation head 1 Cleaning with the cleaning brush (11): Remove the cap and brush it out. Thoroughly clean the tweezers from the rear side of the epilator head with the brush dipped into alcohol. While doing so, turn the tweezer element manually. This cleaning method ensures best hygienic conditions for the epilation head. 2 Cleaning under running water: After each wet usage, clean the appliance under running water. Remove the cap and hold the appliance with the epilation head under hot running water. Then press the release button (6) to remove the epilation head. Shake the appliance and the epilation head to remove excess water and leave both parts to thoroughly dry out before re-assembling. General information on epilation All methods of hair removal from the root can lead to irritation (e. Itching, discomfort and 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. When sliding the appliance over the skin). Thorough cleaning of the epilation head before each use will minimise the risk of infection.
