 Tips for best epilation \cresults
The hair removal is not permanent, so from th\le 2n\f use we 
recommen\f that you epilate the un\fe\lrarms about once a week 
an\f the arms an\f legs about once every two weeks.

When epilating for the first time, or using for the sensitive skin, 
we recommen\f using t\lhe gentle cap. (ES- ED90/70/50)
The gentle cap has \la skin protector f\lor gentler epilatio\ln, to 
remove hair by hol\fing the skin \l\fown to re\fuce pain.
•	 We also recommen\f to\l use the SOFT mo\fe \lrotation.

•	Massaging with a bo\l\fy puff may help to prevent ingrown hairs.
•	 Re\f\fening might app\lear after use. A cool towel will help if you 
feel pain or there i\ls a rash.
•	 If your skin gets \fry after epilation, \lwe recommen\f applyin\lg a 
moisture lotion two \fays after epilation.\l
•	 Make sure skin is clea\ln before an\f after use.
Charging
For best performance, fully charge the \lappliance before use.
You cannot operate the appliance w\lhile charging.
Charging ti\fe = Approx. 1 hour
The epilator can be\l use\f for approximately 30 minutes (40 
minutes when using th\le gentle cap) after\l 1 hour of chargin\lg.  (This will \fiffer \fepen\fing on the\l temperature.)
Plug the AC adaptor 
into the epilator \c(a) and 
a household outlet\c (b).
•	Recommen\fe\f ambient\l 
temperature for charging is 
15 - 35
  °C (59 - 95   °F). The 
battery may not charge 
properly or not at all un\f\ler 
extreme low or high 
temperatures. 

•	 The charging time \lmay \fecrease \fepen\fing\l on the charging 
capacity.
•	 After charging is \lcomplete\f, turning the power switch O\b with 
the epilator plugge\l\f in will cause the \lcharging light to l\light up 
an\f then turn off after 5 seco\ln\fs. 
This shows that the epilato\lr is fully charge\f.

•	To keep charging the b\lattery will not affect battery performance.
•	 When charging the \lepilator for the first time o\lr when it has not \l
been in use for more than 6 mon\lths, the time it takes to charge 
the epilator may increase, or the charging \llight may not glow for 
a few minutes. It will eventually glow if kept connecte\f.
•	 The AC a\faptor is inten\f\le\f to be correctly \loriente\f in a vertical 
or floor mount posi\ltion.
•	 If the shape of th\le plug \foes not fit \lthe power outlet, use an
