Introduction
With your new Satinelle ICE you can remove unwanted hairs quickly,
easily and effectively.The combination of the new ceramic epilating system
with the contour-following skin cooler and the massaging system
constitutes a revolution in epilation.Thanks to the natural numbing effect
of ice and massaging, the new Satinelle ICE makes epilation more
comfortable and less painful than ever.The result is a silky-smooth skin
and a hair growth reduction of up to 50%, assuming you use the
appliance regularly (every 4 weeks).
The Satinelle ICE is suitable for all body parts.Type HP6496 also comes
with a skin cooler specially developed for epilating sensitive areas
(underarms, bikini line).These areas can be particularly sensitive to pain,
which this special skin cooler helps to diminish.
The rapidly rotating epilating discs catch even the shortest hairs (down to
0.5 millimetre!) and pull them out by the roots.As a result, your skin stays
smooth for up to four weeks and regrowth is soft and downy.

cooler is ready for use.
Make sure the outside of the skin cooler is completely dry before you

General information about epilation
Epilation is easier just after a bath or shower. Make sure your skin
is completely dry when you start to epilate.
When you use the appliance for the rst time, we advise you to try
it out on an area with only light hair growth.This helps you get
accustomed to the epilation process.
Before you epilate longer hairs on sensitive skin areas, shorten
them with a trimmer or a pair of scissors.
Your skin may become a little red and irritated the rst few times
you use the epilator.This phenomenon is absolutely normal
and quickly disappears.As you use the appliance more often, your
skin gets used to epilation, skin irritation decreases and
regrowth becomes thinner and softer. If the irritation has not
disappeared within three days, we advise you to consult a doctor.
We advise you to epilate before you go to bed at night, as
this allows any skin irritation that may develop to diminish
overnight.
Epilating with the leg skin cooler
Make sure your skin is clean, entirely dry and free from grease. Do not
use any cream before you start to epilate.
1 Slide the insulating sleeve onto the skin cooler. (Fig. 2)
The insulating sleeve prevents an unpleasant sensation of coldness in your
hand while you use the appliance. It also keeps the skin cooler cold as
long as possible.
Sometimes the pivoting cooling head freezes onto the skin cooler and
does not move when you take the skin cooler from the freezer.The
pivoting cooling head starts to pivot again after you have passed it over
your leg a few times.
2 Snap the appliance onto the skin cooler. (Fig. 3)

3 Insert the appliance plug into the bottom of the appliance and put
the adapter in the wall socket.
4 Select the desired speed to switch on the appliance. (Fig. 4)
Select speed I for areas with little hair growth and for areas where bones
are located directly beneath the skin, such as knees and ankles.
Select speed II for larger areas with stronger hair growth.
5 Stretch your skin with your free hand to make the hairs stand
upright.
6 Place the appliance perpendicularly onto the skin with the epilating
head pointing forward. Move the appliance against the direction of
hair growth at a moderate speed. (Fig. 5)
Make sure both the epilating discs and the skin cooler are in proper
contact with the skin.
Press the appliance lightly onto the skin.
If you are not completely satised with the epilation result, try
moving the epilator more slowly over your skin.
7 Use the tab on the bottom end of the appliance to remove the
appliance from the skin cooler. (Fig. 6)
Epilating with the skin cooler for underarms and bikini line
(HP6496 only).
The special skin cooler for the underarms and the bikini line reduces the
number of active epilating discs. Combined with the large cooling surface,
this skin cooler makes epilating sensitive areas less painful.You get the best
results when the hairs are not too long (max. 1cm).
1 Slide the insulating sleeve onto the skin cooler. (Fig. 7)
2 Snap the appliance onto the skin cooler. (Fig. 8)
3 Switch on the appliance by selecting the desired speed. (Fig. 4)
We advise you to use speed I.
4 To epilate the underarm area, place one arm behind your head to
stretch the skin.Then place the appliance perpendicularly onto the
skin with the hand of the other arm. (Fig. 9)

5 To epilate the bikini line, stretch the skin with your free hand and
place the appliance perpendicularly onto your skin. Do not exert
any pressure. (Fig. 10)
6 Move the appliance slowly across the skin against the direction of
hair growth.
7 Use the tab on the bottom end of the appliance to remove the
appliance from the skin cooler for underarms and bikini line
(HP6496 only). (Fig. 6)
Epilating without skin cooler
If you do not want to use the skin cooler, for instance because you
have grown accustomed to the sensation of epilation, you can also
use the appliance without the skin cooler.
Make sure that you place the epilator perpendicularly onto your
skin and that you move it against the direction of hair growth.

Use the exfoliating body puff in the shower.
Regular massages with the puff may help to prevent ingrown hairs. Do
not use the puff immediately before or after epilation.

underarms and bikini line.With the shaving head, you obtain a smooth
result in a comfortable and gentle way.
