Introduction
◗With your new Satinelle super sensitive you
can remove unwanted hairs quickly and
effectively in an extra-gentle way.
◗The new double-active pain softener relaxes
your skin like a massage,thereby more
effectively masking the sensation of epilation.
As a result,you will hardly feel any pain.
◗The rapidly rotating epilating discs catch even
the shortest hairs (even as short as half a
millimetre!) and quickly remove them by the
root.As a result,your skin stays smooth for
up to four weeks and regrowth is soft and
downy.
Important
◗Check if the mains voltage indicated on the
adapter plug corresponds to your local mains
voltage before you connect the appliance.
◗Make sure the appliance does not come into
contact with water.
◗To prevent damage and injuries,keep the
running appliance away from your hair,
eyebrows,eyelashes,clothes,threads,cords,
brushes etc.
◗Keep the appliance out of the reach of
children.
◗Only use the appliance in combination with
the adapter plug supplied.
◗If the adapter plug of this appliance is
damaged,it may only be replaced with a
adapter plug of the original type.Turn to your
ENGLISH6

Philips dealer or the Philips organisation in
your country for replacement.
◗The appliance contains two nickel cadmium
(NiCd) batteries which may harm the
environment.
◗Do not expose the appliance to temperatures
lower than 5 cC or higher than 35 cC.
◗Do not use the epilating head 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,e.g.during
pregnancy,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.This phenomenon will soon disappear
as your skin becomes used to epilation and
the hairs become thinner and softer.If the
irritation does not disappear within three
days,we advise you to consult a doctor.
◗Regular massages with a loofah may help to
prevent ingrowing hairs.Do not use the
loofah immediately before or after epilation.
◗Only epilate the armpits and bikini line with
the precision cap (B) attached.
ENGLISH 7

General information about epilation
◗Epilating with the Satinelle super sensitive will
leave your skin smooth and hair-free for
weeks.As epilation may cause skin irritation
or ingrown hairs in some women,we advise
you to read the text below.
◗When you use the appliance for the first time,
we advise you to try it out on an area with
only light hair growth to get accustomed to
the epilation process.
◗This appliance has been extensively tested on
the armpits and the bikini line.Some women
will develop skin irritation when they epilate
these areas for the first time.We therefore
advise you to try out the appliance on a small
patch of skin first.
◗After use you can apply a mild cream or body
milk to soothe your skin and reduce skin
irritation.
◗Epilation is easier just after taking a shower or
a bath.Your skin must be completely dry,
however.
◗We advise you to epilate before going to bed
at night.Any skin irritation that may occur will
diminish overnight.

to the mains.
◗The batteries are fully charged after 16 hours.
Do not leave the appliance connected to the
mains for more than 24 hours at a time to extend
the life of the batteries.

◗Le double système anti-douleur relaxe votre
peau comme au cours d'un massage,et fait
oublier la sensation d'épilation.Toute
sensation de douleur est ainsi pratiquement
supprimée.

les plus courts (un demi millimètre!) et les
retirent à partir de la racine.Votre peau sera
douce et sans poils pendant quatre semaines

◗L'appareil contient deux accumulateurs
rechargeables (NiCd) qui contiennent des
substances qui peuvent polluer
l'environnement.
◗N'exposez pas l'appareil à une température
moins de 5 cC ou plus de 35 cC.
◗N'utilisez pas l'appareil sur une peau irritée ou
avec des varices,tâches de vin (avec pilosités)
ou autres problèmes cutanés sans consulter
votre médecin au préalable.Les mêmes
recommandations s'appliquent aux personnes
ayant des protections immunitaires réduites,
par exemple les femmes enceintes,les
diabétiques,les hémophiles ou les déficients
immunitaires.
◗Lors des premières utilisations votre peau
peut devenir rouge et irritée.Il s'agit d'une
réaction normale qui diminuera graduellement
à chaque utilisation car la repousse a tendance
à être plus douce au toucher.Cependant,si
l'irritation persiste plus de trois jours,
consultez votre médecin.
◗Un massage régulier de la peau avec une
éponge végétale (loofah) de massage peut
vous aider à éviter les poils incarnés.Ne
brossez pas la surface de la peau
immédiatement avant ou après l'épilation.
◗Avec l'adapteur de précision (B) épilez
uniquement les aisselles et la ligne du maillot.

Epilation en général
◗L'épilation avec Satinelle super sensitive laisse
votre peau douce et sans poils pendant
plusieurs semaines.Etant donné que l'épilation
peut chez certaines femmes provoquer une
légère irritation de la peau,nous vous
recommandons de lire attentivement les
recommandations ci-dessous.
◗Quand vous utilisez l'appareil pour la
première fois,nous vous conseillons de
commencer par un endroit avec peu de
croissance de poils de manière à vous
habituer à l'épilation.
◗L'appareil a été testé d'une manière
exhaustive pour les aisselles et la ligne du
maillot.Quelques femmes peuvent subir une
irritation de la peau quand elles utilisent
l'appareil pour la première fois dans ces zones
corporelles.Nous vous recommandons
d'essayer d'abord l'appareil sur une petite
portion de peau.
◗Après utilisation,vous pouvez appliquer une
crême hydratante ou un lait corporel qui
aidera à réduire l' irritation 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.
◗Il est conseillé de s'épiler le soir,afin de laisser
les rougeurs disparaître pendant la nuit.
