Charging

Before use, charge the appliance for 1 hour using the special cord set (6). Unplug after charging and use the appliance cordless.

The best environmental temperature for charging, using and storing is between 15 and 30°C. Beyond this range, charging might take longer.
In case of overheating/motor blocking, the red pilot light flashes/shines constantly and the motor turns off. Wait for the appliance to cool down and the red light to turn off before switching on again.

Switch (4)
Press the switch centre (I) to turn the appliance on and off. Additional switch functions depend on the head attached:

Epilation head (2)	Left rotation	Right rotation
Brush attachment* (7,8) MicroVibration head* (9)	Speed 1	Speed 2

* Both the Brush attachment and the MicroVibration head are provided with a treatment timer. A short pause after every 20 seconds of operation indicates that it is time to move on to the next face zone (left cheek, right cheek, forehead).

Travel lock
Press the switch centre (I) 3 seconds to lock the appliance. A beep confirms that the travel lock is activated. To unlock, press the switch 3 seconds. 3 beeps will sound when your unlock attempt failed. Try again or simply connect the appliance to the mains.

Using the epilation head (dry use only)

• Before use, make sure your skin and the epilation head are thoroughly clean.
• Hold the appliance with the tweezers against a section of skin that you keep stretched with your free hand. Carefully guide it with gentle pressure against the direction of hair growth. Do not press too hard as this may lead to skin injury. To stretch the upper lip area, use your tongue to push from below.
• To relax the skin we recommend applying a moisturizing cream after epilation. When epilating for the first time, it is advisable to epilate in the evening, so that any possible reddening can disappear overnight.

General information on epilation
All methods of hair removal from the root can lead to skin irritation (e.g. itching, discomfort, reddening) depending on the condition of your skin and hair.
This is a normal reaction and should quickly disappear, but may be stronger when you are removing hair at the root for the first few times or if you have sensitive skin.
In general, skin reactions and the sensation of pain tend to diminish considerably with the repeated use. If, after 36 hours, the skin still shows irritation, we recommend that you contact your physician. In order to minimise the risk of infection or inflammation due to penetrating bacteria (e.g. when sliding the appliance over the skin), thoroughly clean the epilation head and the skin before using it.
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, koebner phenomenon, haemophilia or immune deficiency.
When you begin taking hormones or if you change the type of hormone medication (e.g. contraceptive pill), the growth of your hairs may be influenced due to a change of your hormone level. This is caused by the change of hormonal conditions, but not by the appliance.

Using the cleansing brush (wet & dry use)

Pull off the epilation head, attach the brush adapter (8) and click-in the cleansing brush (7a) or the vitalizing pad (7b).
Use this attachment as part of your daily cleansing routine with water, soap, cleanser, cleansing milk, gel or peeling products.
The vitalizing pad additionally provides an intensive massage to improve your skin appearance.
Guide the brush/pad with gentle pressure and circular motions. Avoid the eye area and hairline.

Using the MicroVibration head

Attach the MicroVibration head (9). You can choose between gentle and intense mode by sliding the switch (9a) to the left or right. Each mode can be operated with speed 1 or 2.
We recommend the MicroVibration head for applying liquid skin care products. The delicate tapping action ensures an efficient and economic application of your skin care product. Slowly guide the MicroVibration head over the 3 face zones (20 seconds each).

Cleaning and maintenance

After use, clean the appliance as follows:
MicroVibration head (9): Use a damp cloth for cleaning. Do not clean in water.
Epilation head (2): Use the brush (10) to carefully clean the tweezers. You may want to dip the brush into ethanol (70%). Do not clean the epilation head with water.
Cleansing brush/pad (7,8): Only this attachment can be rinsed under running water. If you prefer cleaning it thoroughly with soap and warm water, you may detach the brush/pad (7a/b) by pressing the release button (8a). After cleaning, leave all parts to dry before reattaching them.
For best results, replace the brush/pad (7a/b) every 3 months or sooner if bristles become deformed due to frequent usage. A range of brush refills (ref. no. 80 Face) is available at your retailer, Braun Service Centres or via www.braun.com.
