troubleshooting
If the appliance does not work or does not work properly, first check the
list below. If the problem is not mentioned in this list, the appliance
probably has a defect. In that case we advise you to take the appliance to
your dealer or to an authorised Philips service centre.
Problem
Poor
epilating
results.
Cause
You move the
epilator in the
wrong direction.
You place the
epilating
head on the
skin at the
wrong angle.
You used a
(depilatory)
cream prior to
epilation.
The
sensitive area
cap is on the
epilating head
when you
epilate your
legs.
Solution
Move the appliance against the
direction of hair growth, with the on/
off slide pointing in the direction in
which you move the appliance.
Make sure that you place the
appliance perpendicularly onto the
skin (see chapter 'Using the
appliance').
Make sure your skin is clean, entirely
dry and free from grease. Do not use
any cream before you start epilating.
Make sure that the hairs to be
removed have a length of at least
3mm to guarantee proper hair
removal.
Do not use the sensitive area cap
when you epilate your legs, as the cap
reduces the number of active epilating
discs. NB: Never use the epilator
without the precision cap when you
epilate your underarms or bikini line.
