DANGER
Never attempt to repair and open the device, as this may expose you to dangerous
electrical components and to pulsed light energy, either of which may cause
serious bodily damage and/or permanent eye injury.
WARNING: Water and electricity are a dangerous combination!
To avoid risk of electrocution,
- do not use this device in wet surroundings (e.g. in a bathroom,
near a shower or swimming pool);
- do not let water run into the device.
To avoid electric shock, never use a wet device.
Do not use if the device is damaged (e.g. cracked housing, cord damage etc).
Internal parts contain electric charges that are hazardous.
Regularly inspect the treatment window (1) for damage:
Do not use if the glass filter (9) is cracked or missing. Do not use if the built-in
reflector is missing or not in correct place.
Do not touch the glass filter during or directly after use since it will get hot.
Do not use petroleum-based or flammable cleaning agents (alcohol, acetones) on
the device as these pose a fire risk.
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents. These may damage the device or scratch the
glass filter.
Do not attempt to use this device other than for removing unwanted hair.
Do not use the device on a surface other than skin. Do not press the treatment
button when the treatment window (1) is not placed in full contact with the skin.
Do not block the cooling vents. The device may overheat and pose an electric
shock risk or fire hazard.
Under continued use the temperature of the device may reach a maximum of 60ºC.
After treatment, remove the device from the skin.
How to use
Preparing the treatment area
Remove any visible hair on the skin before using the device. You may use your preferred hair removal
method. To keep the treatment window clean and intact, ensure there is no hair remaining on the skin
surface. Clean the treatment area and pat it dry.
To power on the device:
Use the mains cord (8) to connect the base station to an electrical outlet. Press any button (4 or 5) to
activate the device. The LED power bars (3) will light up once and a fan starts running. This means the
device is in READY mode. During operation, the device will heat up slightly.
Automatic light adaptation
When both skin tone sensors (2) have skin contact, the device reads your skin tone and selects the
appropriate light intensity which is indicated by white LEDs on the Power bars (3). These confirm that the
device is ready to flash.
