Epilation

• When epilating on dry skin, your skin

must be free from grease or cream.

• The appliance can be used on wet

skin, even under running water. Make

sure that the skin is very moist. In order

to achieve optimum gliding conditions

for the appliance, you may use a

shower gel while epilating.

The epilation head (2) is equipped with

different caps (1, 7 or 8 depending on

model). Choose the cap according to your

needs:

Skin contact cap (1): provides a close

skin contact and adapts to all body areas.

Massage cap (7): can be used instead

of the skin contact cap (1). It stimulates

the skin to make the epilation process

more comfortable.

Always stretch your skin while epilating.

Hold the appliance at a right angle (90°)

against your skin and guide it in a slow,

continuous motion against the hair growth

in the direction of the switch.

Use on legs: Epilate your legs in an

upward direction. When epilating behind

the knee, keep the leg stretched out

straight. Keep your leg stretched out

straight when removing hair in the area

behind the knee.

Use on underarm and bikini zone: Since

these areas are sensitive to pain, start

with speed I. With repeated usage, the

pain sensation will diminish. Before epilat-

ing, thoroughly clean the respective area

to remove residues (like deodorant).

When epilating the underarm, keep your

arm raised up and guide the appliance in

different directions in order to catch all

hairs that might grow in various directions.

Beginner cap (8) for first time users:

combines epilation and shaving to help

getting used to hair removal from the root.

It has been designed for wet usage on legs

only. Always apply shave foam or gel on

your wet skin when using the beginner cap.

In the beginning phase (first 4 weeks), use

the epilator with the beginner cap once a

week to epilate and shave. Take special

care on bony, uneven skin areas in order

to avoid injuries caused by the blades.

Between usages, rinse off the foam built

up on the beginner cap.

After 4 weeks, you will be used to hair

removal and can switch to epilation using

the skin contact (1) or massage cap (7).

If you want keep using the beginner cap,

make sure to replace it after 12 usages (or

in case the blade shows signs of wear,

kinks, or damage). Replacement caps

(reference #771WD) are available from the

retailer where the appliance was bought,

from Braun Service Centres or via

www.service.braun.com.

Epilation tips

• If you have not used an epilator before,

or if you have not epilated for a long

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.

• When epilating for the first time, it is

advisable to epilate in the evening, so

that any possible reddening can disap-

pear overnight. To relax the skin we rec-
