Answer
Instantaneous flash from a xenon
lamp.
This is because of unstable
hormone balance when growing
up and the skin can become
sensitive easily.
Only use the appliance on
underarms, arms, legs, bikini-line
and face (when using face
attachment).
(Do not use the body attachment
on the face or other areas.)
Using the appliance on the same
area everyday is not
recommended.
Please follow the guide for
treatment frequency and time.
(See page 14.)
This is because the flash applies
heat to unwanted hair, and is not
a sign of a malfunction. Shave
any hair if it has grown too long.
Also remove all trimmings
remaining on the skin.
Apply the flash switch closely
against the skin. (See page 17.)
If the light is still a concern, wear
sunglasses or other eye protection.
Question
Can the flash lamp be
replaced?
The light feels hot while
using the appliance but is
this a problem?
The treated skin turns
red while using the
appliance but is this a
problem?
The pain and redness do
not subside after use but
is this a problem?
When the remaining
capacity of the battery is
low (charging indication/
notification lamp blinks),
does the flash power
drop?
Answer
The flash lamp cannot be
replaced.
If the flash lamp is damaged or
the like, please contact the store
where you purchased the unit or
a service centre authorized by
Panasonic for repair.
The sensation is different for each
person but it may feel hotter if hair
has not been shaved properly.
Treated skin may temporarily turn
red or feel painful depending on
the body type or condition of the
person using the appliance. Stop
using the appliance immediately,
and keep the skin cool and moist.
If the symptoms subside within
2 days, use the appliance at a
level that the symptoms do not
appear. If the symptoms persist
after 2 days, consult a
dermatologist. (See page 16.)
Regardless of the remaining
capacity of the battery, the flash
power is the same.
