A How To Epilate - Braun 7280 User Manual

If you have any doubts about using this
appliance, please consult your physician. In
the following cases, this appliance should
only be used after prior consultation with a
physician:
– eczema, wounds, inflamed skin reactions
such as folliculitis (purulent hair follicles)
and varicose veins,
– around moles,
– reduced immunity of the skin, e.g. diabetes
mellitus, during pregnancy, Raynaud's
disease, haemophilia, candida or immune
deficiency.
Some useful tips
If you have not used an epilator before, or
if you have not epilated for a longer period
of time, it may take a short time for your
skin to adapt to epilation. The discomfort
experienced in the beginning will decrease
considerably with repeated use as the skin
adapts to the process.
Epilation is easier and more comfortable
when the hair is at the optimum length of
2–5 mm (0.08 – 0.2 in.). If hairs are longer, we
recommend that you either shave first and
epilate the shorter, re-growing hairs after 1 or
2 weeks.
When epilating for the first time, it is
advisable to epilate in the evening, so that
any possible reddening can disappear
overnight. To relax the skin we recommend
applying a moisture cream after epilation.
Fine hair which re-grows might not grow
up to the skin surface. The regular use of
massage sponges (e.g. after showering) or
exfoliation peelings helps to prevent in-
growing hair as the gentle scrubbing action
removes the upper skin layer and fine hair
can get through to the skin surface.

A How to epilate

1 Turning on
• Press one of the lock keys and turn the
switch clockwise to setting 2 (optimum
setting). For reduced speed, choose
setting 1 (soft setting).
• The «smartlight» comes on instantly and
shines as long as the appliance is switched
on. It reproduces an almost daylight
condition, thus revealing even the finest
hair and giving you a better control for
improved epilation efficiency.
2 How to guide the appliance
• Always stretch your skin when epilating.
• Always make sure that the epilation area
between the massaging rollers is in
contact with your skin.
• The pivoting caps automatically adapt to
the contour of your skin.
