User manual PHILIPS HP 6520

[. . . ] This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. Do not cut off the adapter to replace it with another plug, as this causes a hazardous situation. Do not insert metal-containing material into the socket for the appliance plug to avoid short circuiting. [. . . ] Do not apply any cream to your skin before you start to epilate. We advise you to epilate before you go to bed at night, as skin irritation usually disappears overnight. Epilation is easier and more comfortable when the hairs have a length of 3-4mm. If the hairs are longer, we recommend that you shave first and epilate the shorter regrowing hairs after 1 or 2 weeks. Epilating Note: If you are new to epilation, start epilating with the double wavy massage attachment to minimise the pulling sensation of epilation. This attachment is only intended for epilating the legs. Note:To epilate the underarms or bikini line, use the sensitive area cap that reduces the number of active epilating discs. , The appliance starts to operate at speed II, which is the most efficient speed for epilating. Note: If you want to use speed I, press the on/off button a second time. 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. 3 Stretch the skin with your free hand to make the hairs stand upright. 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. - Epilate your bikini line as shown in the figure. 4 Move the appliance slowly over the skin against the direction of hair growth while pressing it lightly. 5 Press the on/off button a third time to switch off the appliance. Tip:To relax the skin, we advise you to apply a moisturising cream immediately or a few hours after epilation. Tip: After epilation, use a gentle deodorant without alcohol or a special deodorising cream for epilated underarms. Using the exfoliation brush You can use the exfoliation brush dry or wet to remove dead skin cells gently and thoroughly. Make gentle circular movements with the exfoliation brush for a soft exfoliating effect. This helps to prevent ingrown hairs and gives you smooth, soft and fresh-looking skin. Brush your skin with the exfoliation brush one day before and two days after epilating. Scrub your legs with gentle, circular movements, starting at the ankles.
