●About the roller mode and single mode
By extending the grip of the device in a straight line or bending the grip, you can use the device to
administer continuous-pulse flashes (roller mode) or single-pulse flashes (single FACE mode/single BODY
mode).
The device can render unwanted hair inconspicuous and allow you to carry out a facial treatment by
administering instantaneous flashes of light to the skin using a xenon lamp.
Use the device by selecting the mode according to the site where the device will be used.
Roller mode: Use by extending the grip in a straight line.
Glide the device with the treatment window in contact with the skin to rotate the roller, which
in turn causes flash pulses to be discharged continuously.
The meter indicator lets you know how many more flash pulses can be emitted.
* Each time the level is raised, the interval between each flash pulse will gradually lengthen.
Single mode: Use by bending the grip.
Each time you press the flash button that appears when you bend the grip, a flash pulse will
be discharged.
Since you can choose between FACE mode and BODY mode in the single mode, select the
mode according to the site where you wish to use the device.
* Do not treat the same site continuously at a high level. Make sure to use the device while
moving the treatment window from one site to the next.
Attention
When treating your face, make sure you use FACE mode.
Using BODY mode may cause a burn injury or other problems.

②Level indicator
The selected intensity level will be indicated. The higher the number, the stronger will be the power of the
flash.
In addition, this indicator will let you know when there is an error (See “Error indications” on page 27.)
③READY lamp
White light: When the treatment window is in proper contact with the skin after preparations have been
completed (emission is possible).
Light is off: When the treatment window is not in proper contact with the skin.
④Meter indicator
The meter gradually rises until all lamp bars are lit to notify the user that the device is ready to emit
flashes.
When in roller mode: The number of continuous flash pulses remaining (max. seven) is indicated.
<Single mode only>
⑤BODY mode/FACE mode indicator
The site (body or face) at which the device can be used is indicated.
Press the power/level button to select the treatment site and the intensity level.
⑥Flash button
Brightness of the environment in which the device is used
A usage environment that is too dark may cause an injury to the eyes.
The recommended usage environment is atop a table in a room with ceiling lights.
Refrain from using the device in any of the following locations:
・Room with indirect lighting
・Room that is lit by a miniature bulb or otherwise with lighting that is excessively dark
・Under a table or otherwise in the shadows
①Power/level button

Roller mode: Standby state (meter indicator will blink in a blue color).
Single mode: The ②level indicator, ④meter indicator, and ⑤BODY mode / FACE mode indicator
will be lit.
For more details on modes, see “Modes” (page 11).
Off: After holding down the button (approx. 3 seconds), the indicator panel will turn off and the device will
then shut down.
Level selection:
Each time the button is pressed, the level will go up by one level. The selected level will be indicated
by the ②level indicator.
* The level that can be selected will differ according to mode.

Treatment preparations
In order to ensure that the device works as intended, make sure to undertake preparations prior to carrying
out a treatment.
* Make sure to perform this test before using the device for the first time.
Test the Flash on a patch of skin
1Apply flash to an inconspicuous site near the intended treatment
site starting from level 1 in single mode.
For more information on how to apply a treatment, see “How to use each mode” (pages 17 through
22).
* Do not perform multiple tests on the same site. Always perform multiple tests by shifting the site
each time.
2After performing the test, wait twenty-four hours before checking
your skin.
You can use the device if no abnormalities can be seen on your skin (such as redness, a blister, or
inflammation).
1Make sure to get rid of excess hair at the site to be treated.
* A burn injury may result if excess hair is allowed to grow long or remain on the surface of the skin.
* Avoid tweezing or removing hair with wax or other such means.
Use a handheld shaver.
2Verify that neither the lamp head nor treatment window is in an
abnormal state.
・
Make sure to clean the device if it is dirty.
Failure to comply may cause a failure or degradation of the device, a burn injury or other type of
injury, or skin problems.
See “How to clean” (page 23) for more information on how to clean the device.
Refrain from using the device when it is damaged or deformed.

Flash level setting
Use the device after setting the flash to a level at which warmth or a little heat can be felt.
Attention
●DO NOT use the device if it is set to a level at which pain can be felt.
●Use the device while adjusting the level.
Adjust the level since your perception will differ depending on the site where the
device is used.
●DO NOT use the device if it is set to an unreasonably high level.
In particular, the skin of a darker-skinned person or a person who has gotten
suntanned will more easily absorb light. For such persons, failure to comply may
cause skin problems.
Treatment steps
Make sure to carry out a flash treatment after removing excess hair.
①Shaving (using a tool other than the device; performed by the user)→②Flash treatment (using the device)
* If you are concerned about hot flashes of the skin, sufficiently cool down the skin by applying a cold pack
or cold towel to the site in question.
Before using
Treatment frequency
* In single mode, do not treat the same site twice or more times per day.

adapter into a wall outlet.
3Press the power/level button and
select the level.

gradually raise the level one by one until it gets
to the level appropriate for yourself. Do not use

2Hold down the power/level
button (approx. 3 seconds) to
turn on the device.
