B Always stretch your skin when epilating. 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
massage cap (1a) ensures best skin comfort
during epilation. If you are used to the
sensation of epilation, you may replace the
massage cap with the skin contact cap (1b)
which provides a closer skin contact and an
improved adaptation to all body areas.
CLeg epilation
Epilate your legs from the lower leg in an
upward direction. When epilating behind the
knee, keep the leg stretched out straight.
DUnderarm and bikini line epilation
In sensitive areas, we recommend using the
skin contact cap (1b). Especially during the
first applications these areas are particularly
sensitive to pain. Therefore, we recommend
that you select speed I for the first few times.
With repeated usage the pain sensation 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.
ECleaning 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.g. 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 from 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∑È pil.
In some cases, inflammation of the skin could
occur when bacteria penetrate the skin (e.g.
when sliding the appliance over the skin).
Thorough cleaning of the epilation head before
each use will minimise the risk of infection.
If you have any doubts about using this
appliance, please consult your physician. In the
following cases, this appliance should only be
used after prior consultation with a physician:
eczema, wounds, inflamed skin reactions such as
folliculitis (purulent hair follicles), varicose veins
around moles, reduced immunity of the skin, e.g.
diabetes mellitus, during pregnancy, Raynaudí s
disease, haemophilia, candida or immune
deficiency.
II Exfoliation
Exfoliation tips
The exfoliation brush has been developed for full
body usage, especially for legs, arms and
dÈ colletÈ . It has not been designed for usage on
the face. You can use the exfoliation brush on a
weekly basis on dry or wet skin during your
shower routine.
However, when using it in a bathtub, do not
immerse it fully in water since this will not provide
optimal exfoliation results.
For best exfoliation results, extra comfort and a
pampering experience, we recommend to use
the product use the brush on wet skin with your
preferred body scrub or shower gel.
How to exfoliate

brush adapter (9).
!" Click the brush adapter onto the appliance.
A Select speed ´ Iª for sensitive skin areas, speed
´ IIª for normal skin.
B Slowly guide the exfoliation brush in circular
movements over your skin to gently refine it.
Avoid holding the brush on the same skin area
for prolonged time. Do not use the exfoliation
brush on your face.
We recommend that you exfoliate at least 1ñ 2
days before you want to epilate.
Cleaning the exfoliation brush
After use, rinse the exfoliation brush under
running water. If needed, you may use some
liquid soap to thoroughly clean it. Shake the
brush to remove excess water and leave it to dry.
