Introduction
C◗With your new Satinxice you can remove
unwanted hairs quickly,easily and effectively.
The combination of the proven epilating disc
system with the newly developed skin cooler
constitutes a revolution in epilation.Thanks to
the natural numbing effect of ice on the skin,
the new Satinxice makes epilation more
comfortable and less painful than ever.
◗The Satinxice is particularly suitable for the
legs.The rapidly rotating epilating discs catch
even the shortest hairs (0.5 millimetres!) and
pull them out by the roots.The hairs that
grow back are soft and downy.So no stubble!
Important
◗Check if the mains voltage indicated on the
appliance corresponds to your local mains
voltage before you connect the appliance.
◗Make sure the appliance does not come into
contact with water.
◗Keep the appliance out of the reach of
children.
◗To prevent damage and injuries,keep the
running appliance away from your hair,
eyebrows,eyelashes,clothes,threads,cords,
brushes etc.
◗If the mains cord of this appliance is damaged,
it must always be replaced by the original
type.
◗Please turn to your Philips dealer or to the
Philips Customer Care Centre in your
country for replacement.

Epilation in general
After epilating with the Satinxice,your skin will
stay smooth and hair-free for weeks.As some
women may develop skin irritation and ingrown
hairs,we recommend that you read the text
below carefully.
- Do not use the appliance when the skin to be
epilated is irritated or when you have varicose
veins,pimples,moles (with hairs) or scratches
without consulting your doctor first.When you
have a reduced immune response,e.g.during
pregnancy or if you are suffering from diabetes
mellitus,haemophilia or immunodeficiency,you
might be more susceptible.If any problems
should occur,please contact your doctor as
well.
- Because the appliance pulls the hairs out by the
roots,the skin may be slightly sensitive or
become somewhat red and irritated.This
phenomenon is absolutely normal (especially
when you have just started using the appliance)
and will quickly disappear.As you use the
appliance more often,the skin irritation will
decrease.Moreover,the hairs that grow back
after epilation gradually become softer and
easier to remove.If,however,your skin irritation
has not disappeared within three days,you are
advised to consult your doctor.
- When you epilate for the first time,we advise
you to try the appliance out on an area with
relatively little hair growth.In this way you can
get accustomed to this epilating method.
- Type HP6434/PB only:This appliance has been
ENGLISH 5

extensively tested on the underarm and bikini-
line areas.Some women may develop skin
irritation when they use this appliance to
epilate these parts of their body for the first
time.We advise you to try the appliance out on
a small patch of skin first.
- Regular cleaning and proper maintenance are
essential to guarantee the best results and to
prolong the life of the appliance.
Tips
- Regular massages with a loofah ( types
HP6433/PB,HP6434/PB,HP6435/PB only)may
help prevent ingrown hairs.When the skin
surface is carefully scrubbed with a loofah,fine
hairs will continue to grow without a problem.
Do not scrub immediately before or after
epilating.
- Applying a mild cream or body milk after
epilation will help to reduce any skin irritation
that may develop.
- Hairs are easier to remove after you have taken
a bath or a shower.Make sure your skin is
completely dry when you start to epilate.
- We advise you to epilate in the evening,as this
will allow any skin irritation that may develop to
disappear during the night.

C◗Avec votre nouvel épilateur Satinxice,vous
pouvez vous épiler rapidement et
efficacement.La combinaison d'un système
d'épilation à disques déjà éprouvé;avec un
pack givrant à accumulation,amène une
révolution dans la technique d'épilation.Grâce
à l'effet naturel anesthésiant de la glace sur la
peau,le nouvel épilateur Satinxice rend
l'épilation plus confortable et moins
douloureuse comme jamais elle ne l'a été.
◗Votre épilateur Satinxice est particulièrement
adapté à l'épilation de vos jambes.Les disques
rotatifs attrapent même les poils les plus
courts (0,5 mm!) et les retirent à partir de la
racine.Le poil qui repouse est doux et fin.
Plus de poils durs!

l'eau.
◗Conservez l'appareil à l'écart des enfants.

Epilation en général
L'épilation avec Satinxice laisse votre peau douce
et sans poils pendant plusieurs semaines.Etant
donné le fait que certaines femmes peuvent subir
une irritation de la peau,nous vous
recommandons de lire attentivement ce qui suit.
- N'utilisez pas l'appareil sur une peau irritée ou
avec des varices,taches,des taches de vin (avec
pilosités) ou autres problèmes cutanés sans
consulter votre médecin préalablement.Les
mêmes recommandations s'appliquent aux
personnes ayant des protections immunitaires
reduites,par exemple les femmes enceintes,les
diabétiques,les hémophiles ou les déficients
immunitaires.En cas de problème,consultez
votre médecin.
- L'appareil retire les poils avec leurs racines et
donc cela peut provoquer un rougissement ou
une irritation de la peau.Il s'agit d'une réaction
normale (surtout quand vous utilisez l'appareil
pour la première fois) qui disparaîtra
rapidement.Mais cet effet diminuera
graduellement à chaque utilisation.La repousse
a tendance à être plus douce au toucher.
Cependant,si l'irritation persiste plus de trois
jours,consultez votre médecin.
- Quand vous utilisez l'appareil pour la première
fois,nous vous conseillons de commencer à un
FRANÇAIS 21

endroit avec peu de poils de manière à vous
habituer à l'épilation.
- Type HP6434/PB uniquement:l'appareil a été
testé pour les aisselles et la ligne du maillot.
Certaines femmes peuvent subir une irritation
de la peau quand elles utilisent l'appareil pour la
première fois dans ces zones sensibles.Nous
vous recommandons d'essayer d'abord
l'appareil sur une petite portion de peau.
- Un nettoyage régulier et un entretien correct
vous garantissent des résultats optimaux et une
durée de vie plus longue pour votre appareil.
Suggestions
- Un massage régulier de la peau avec un gant
végétal ou un loofah de massage peut vous
aider à éviter les poils incarnés.Quand la
surface de la peau est brossée avec un loofah,
les poils fins continueront à croître sans
problèmes.Ne brossez pas la surface de la
peau immédiatement avant ou après l'épilation.
- Après utilisation,vous pouvez appliquer une
crême douce ou un lait corporel qui aidera à
réduire une irritation possible de la peau après
l'épilation.
- Les poils sont plus facile à épiler après un bain
ou une douche,mais votre peau doit être
complètement sèche durant l'épilation.
- Au début,il est conseillé de s'épiler le soir,afin
de laisser les rougeurs disparaître pendant la
nuit.
