Danger
- Keep the epilator and the adapter dry.
- Do not use the epilator near or over a washbasin or
bath filled with water (Fig. 2).
- Do not use the epilator in the bath or in the
shower (Fig. 3).
- If you use the epilator in the bathroom, do not use
an extension cord (Fig. 4).
Warning
- Keep the precision epilator and the Smart Tweezers
dr y.
- Only use the epilator with the adapter supplied.
- Do not use the epilator, precision epilator, Smart
Tweezers and the adapter if they are damaged.
- If the adapter is damaged, always have it replaced
with one of the original type in order to avoid a
hazard.
- Check if the voltage indicated on the adapter
corresponds to the local mains voltage before you
connect the epilator.
- Do not cut off the adapter to replace it with another
plug, as this causes a hazardous situation.
- The epilator, precision epilator and Smart Tweezers
are not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliances by a
person responsible for their safety.
- Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the epilator, precision epilator and
Smart Tweezers.
- Keep the button batteries of the Smart Tweezers out
of the reach of children and pets. Button batteries
are a potential choking hazard.
Caution
- The epilator is only intended for removing women’s
body hair from the legs.The precision epilator is
intended for epilating women’s body hair in the bikini
and underarm area and on hard-to-reach areas such
as knee and ankle. Do not use the appliances for any
other purpose.
- For hygienic reasons, the epilator, precision epilator
and Smart Tweezers should only be used by one
person.
- To prevent damage and injuries, keep operating
appliances away from scalp hair, eyebrows, eyelashes,
clothes, threads, cords, brushes etc.
- Do not use the appliances and the Smart Tweezers
on irritated skin or skin with varicose veins, rashes,
spots, moles (with hairs) or wounds without
consulting your doctor first.
- People with a reduced immune response or people
who suffer from diabetes mellitus, haemophilia or
immunodeficiency should also consult their doctor first.
- Your skin may become a little red and irritated
the first few times you use the epilator or
precision epilator.This phenomenon is absolutely
normal and quickly disappears. As you epilate
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.
- Do not use the epilating heads if they are damaged
or broken, as this may cause injury.
- Do not expose the epilator to temperatures lower
than 5°C or higher than 35°C.
- Only use the precision epilator on non-rechargeable
AA 1.5V alkaline batteries.
- Only use the Smart Tweezers on alkaline button
batteries type L736H or AG3 (dia. 7.8 x 3.4mm).

Electromagnetic elds (EMF)
The Philips epilator and precision epilator comply with all
standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF).
Epilation tips
Note:Always clean the epilating head of the epilator and the
precision epilator before rst use.
- We advise you to epilate before going to bed at
night, as skin irritation usually disappears overnight.
- Epilation is easier just after taking a bath or shower.
Make sure your skin is completely dry when you
start epilating.
- Make sure your skin is clean, entirely dry and free
from grease. Do not use any cream before you start
epilating.
- Epilation is easier and more comfortable when the
hair has the optimum length of 3–4 mm. If the hairs
are longer, we recommend that you shave first and
epilate the shorter regrowing hairs after 1 or 2
weeks.
- Regular massages with the exfoliation glove one
day before and two days after epilation may help to
prevent ingrown hairs.
Note: Do not use the exfoliation glove immediately after
epilation, as this may intensify possible skin irritation caused
by the epilator.
