Braun Silk-epil 5 Anleitung Seite 14

• Put transparent (cool) side of the glove
on your leg.
• Start cooling for approximately
30 seconds, longer if needed.
• Epilate the cooled skin area immedi-
ately as described below.
• Repeat cooling and epilating until
completion.
• While epilating, please ensure your
skin is dry.
Important: Apply cooling glove to the
same area for no longer than 2 minutes.
Keep away from sunlight. Do not use
gel pack when damaged. Dispose of in
household waste. Do not use if you are
hypersensitive, allergic to the cold, or if
your skin suffers from sensory disturb-
ances, when suffering from cardiac
diseases or arterial circulatory disorders.
A How to epilate
The epilation head (2) features Close-
Grip Technology to ensure extra effi-
ciency especially with short hairs: The
40 tweezers always keep close contact
to the skin to remove hairs as short as
grain of sand (0.5 mm). The pivoting
head perfectly adapts to the body
contours for maximum thoroughness.
The high-frequency massaging rollers
(1a) stimulate your skin effectively for an
extra gentle epilation.
1 How to operate the appliance
Turn the on/off switch (4) to operate
the appliance:
Turn to position «I» = extra gentle
Turn to position «II» = extra efficient
As long as the appliance is switched
on, the light (3) illuminates the area
to be epilated. This gives 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 is in close contact with your
skin.
• Guide the appliance in a slow,
continuous 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 directions to
achieve optimal results. The pulsat-
ing movements of the massaging
rollers stimulate and relax the skin
for a gentler epilation.
• If you are used to the sensation of
epilation, you may replace the
massage cap (1a) with the skin
contact cap (1b) which provides a
closer skin contact and an improved
adaptation to all body areas.
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 sensi-
tive area cap (7) has been developed
as an optional attachment to be placed
on the epilation head (2).
Please be aware that especially at the
beginning, these areas are particularly
sensitive to pain. Therefore, we recom-
mend you start with switch setting «I».
With repeated usage the pain sensa-
tion will diminish. 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 deodorants with alcohol.
