Solution
This is a safety measure. The device is not intended to work when it is
charging. Let the device charge approximately 1 hour for a 5-minute
session.
Only use the device on dry skin. The device only works optimally on dry
skin.
Using this device may lead to mild redness directly after use. You may
experience a warm, tingling sensation during use. These effects usually
disappear within several minutes and are generally experienced as
pleasant. It is possible that you experience dry or flaky skin, prolonged
redness or swelling. In that case you may have pressed the device too
hard on your face or have passed it over the same area too many times.
Try to exert less pressure onto the device during the next session or pass
the device over the area fewer times. In rare cases the device may cause
a bruise or blister, scratch or pigmentation change. Almost all skin
reactions will disappear within a week, pigmentation change will
decrease within several weeks or a few months. To avoid possible side
effects, use a day cream with sun protection factor or a sun protection
cream after the session. This helps to avoid sunburn. The device has
been tested and confirmed safe for use when used as described in the
user manual. Medicines or products and their possible side effects can
affect individual people in different ways. Since there is always the
possibility that a rare or previously unknown side effect may occur with
the use of this device or any other product, please contact the Philips
Consumer Care Center in case you experience a side effect which is not
mentioned above.
Check if the filter is clogged. Clean the tip by rinsing it under the tap. If
the exfoliation ring is dirty, let the tip soak in hot water with washing-up
liquid for 5-10 minutes. You can use the cleaning brush to clean it. Make
sure you clean the filter with the tip upside down to rinse off any dirt left
in the filter. Dry the tip with a lint-free towel or let it air-dry. Check if you
can feel the suction of the device when the tip is taken off: you remove
the tip and then switch on the device. When you put your finger on the
hole, you should be able to feel the suction. If you do not feel the
suction, the device might be broken. Please contact your Philips
Consumer Care Center in your country.
Try different ways of holding the device in order to find the right angle of
the tip with the forehead for proper skin contact. Make sure to move the
device slowly over the forehead. You can try to hold your hand still and
move your head instead.
As soon as you do not experience side effects from using the 'Sensitive'
tip, you may try the ' Normal' tip. Please note that the first time you use a
new tip, you may have a different skin reaction. Give your skin some time
to get used to the new tip.
