• The green charging light (6a) flashes to 
show that the shaver is being charged. 
When the battery is fully charged, the 
charging light shines permanently. Once 
fully charged, use the appliance without 
cord. 
• A full charge provides up to 30 minutes 
of effective usage time. 
• When the red low-charge light (6b) 
flashes, reconnect the appliance to an 
electrical outlet to recharge.
• After each use, recharge the appliance 
either directly via the special cord set or by 
placing it onto the charging stand. 
• The best environmental temperature for 
charging, using and storing the appliance 
is between 15 °C and 35 °C. In case the 
temperature is beyond this range, the 
charging time might be longer whereas 
the cordless operation time might be 
reduced. 
Turning on
• Press one of the lock keys (5a) and turn 
the switch clockwise to select your 
preferred speed setting:
«I» = extra gentle 
«II» = extra efficient 
• The SmartLight comes on instantly 
and shines as long as the appliance is 
switched on. It reproduces an almost 
daylight condition, thus revealing even the 
finest hair and giving you a better control 
for improved epilation efficiency.
Wet usage
The Dual Epilator has been designed for wet 
usage with shave gel or foam. 
In order to achieve optimum gliding condi-
tions use the appliance on wet skin using 
shave gel.
For optimum results, we recommend using 
Gillette Satin Care* shave gel. 
For improved handling under wet conditions, 
you may want to attach the non-slip grip (7).

A Dual Epilation with the 
Smoothing cap 
Hair removal with the Silk·épil 7 Dual Epilator 
is a completely new approach to remove hair. 
In one stroke it first gently removes the hair 
from the root, followed by the blade to 
smoothen the skin. The unique Dual Epilator 
combines Close-Grip Technology (incl. 
40 tweezers) for long-lasting results with 
integrated Venus Technology for one stroke 
efficiency. 
Dual epilation with the Smoothing cap has 
been designed and optimized for usage on 
legs. If you want to use the Smoothing cap 
for hair removal in other body areas, please 
take extra care because of the sharp blades. 
Skin needs to be stretched during usage. 
Start-up phase
In order to allow your skin to adapt to 
the new hair removal process, it is most 
important that you use the appliance once a 
week during the first month of usage. After 
3-4 usages, with every hair being epilated 
once and the hair re-growth adapted to the 
new process, you will be able to enjoy 
long-lasting results as with normal epilation, 
using the dual epilator every 2-3 weeks. 
How to use the Dual Epilator 
• Before use, make sure that Epilation head 
(3) is clean. Attach the Smoothing cap (2). 
• Apply shave foam or gel on the wet skin.
• Stretching your skin, guide the appliance 
in a slow, continuous movement without 
pressure against the hair growth in the 
direction of the switch.
