• Charge the Satinelle at temperatures between 5° and
35° C (41° and 95° F). This guarantees maximum life of
the rechargeable batteries.
How to use
• Make sure your skin is clean, free from grease and
creams and completely dry.
Do not apply any cream before epilating. (Except for
special "pre and after epilaton" gels. See also under
section "Epilation gels".)
• If you use the appliance for the first time, we advise you
to start at a place with comparatively little hair growth so
that you may get accustomed to epilating.
• As the hairs are removed by the root, your skin may feel a
little discomfort after epilating with Satinelle for the first
time. But this effect will gradually lessen with each use.
As the hairs are removed by the root, re-growth tends to
be softer both in appearance and touch.
• The appliance is prevented from being switched on
accidentally by the safety switch incorporated in the
selector. Keep the small button pressed down while
sliding the selector.
- Switch the Satinelle on, selecting the desired speed
(fig. 5).
Our advice:
• For areas where the hairs are thinner, for hard-to-reach
places and for areas with bones under the skin (such as
knees and ankles), select speed I (normal speed) (fig. 6).
• For larger surfaces and thicker hairs, select speed II (high
