With your new epilator you can remove unwanted hair quickly, easily and effectively. 

The rotating discs catch even the shor test hairs (down to 0.5mm) and pull them out by 

the root. The hairs that grow back are soft and thin. The ideal combination of epilator, 

exfoliation glove and cooling glove makes epilation more comfor table and leaves your 

skin smooth, fresh and hair-free for several weeks.

Danger

 -

Keep the appliance and the adapter dry.

 -

Do not use the appliance near or over a washbasin or bath filled with water (Fig. 2).

 -

Do not use the appliance in the bath or in the shower (Fig. 3).

 -

If you use the appliance in the bathroom, do not use an extension cord (Fig. 4).

Warning

 -

Only use the appliance in combination with the adapter supplied.

 -

Do not use the appliance or the adapter if it is damaged.

 -

If the adapter is damaged, always have it replaced with one of the original type in 

order to avoid a hazard.

 -

The adapter contains a transformer. Do not cut off the adapter to replace it with 

another plug, as this causes a hazardous situation.

 -

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced 

physical, sensor y or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless 

they have been given super vision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by 

a person responsible for their safety.

 -

Children should be super vised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Caution

 -

This appliance is only intended for removing women’s body hair on areas below 

the neck: underarms, bikini area and legs. Do not use it for any other purpose.

 -

To prevent damage and injuries, keep the 

running

 appliance (with or without 

attachment) away from scalp hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, clothes, threads, cords, 

brushes etc. 

 -

Do not use the appliance on irritated skin or skin with varicose veins, rashes, 

spots, moles (with hairs) or wounds without consulting your doctor first. People 

with a reduced immune response or people who suffer from diabetes mellitus, 

haemophilia or immunodeficiency should also consult their doctor first.

 -

Your skin may become a little red and irritated the first few times you use the 

epilator. This phenomenon is absolutely normal and quickly disappears. As you use 

the appliance more often, your skin gets used to epilation, skin irritation decreases 

and regrowth becomes thinner and softer. If the irritation has not disappeared 

within three days, we advise you to consult a doctor.

 -

Do not use the epilating head, the shaving head, the hair-lifting attachment or the 

shaving comb if it is damaged or broken, as this may cause injur y.

 -

Noise level: Lc = 72 dB(A)

Electromagnetic fields (EMF)

This Philips appliance complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF). 

If handled properly and according to the instructions in this user manual, the appliance is 

safe to use based on scientific evidence available today.

Epilation tips

 -

When you use the appliance for the first time, we advise you to tr y it out on an 

area with only light hair growth to get accustomed to the epilation process.

 -

Epilation is easier just after taking a bath or shower. Make sure your skin is 

completely dr y when you star t epilating.

 -

Make sure your skin is clean, entirely dr y and free from grease. Do not use any 

cream before you star t epilating. 

 -

Epilation is easier and more comfor table when the hair has the optimum length 

of 3–4 mm. If the hairs are longer, we recommend that you either shave first and 

epilate the shor ter regrowing hairs after 1 or 2 weeks or that you use the shaving 

head with the shaving head comb attachment to pretrim hairs to this ideal length.

 -

When you epilate for the first time, we advise you to epilate in the evening, so that 

any reddening that develops can disappear overnight. 

 -

While epilating stretch your skin with your free hand. This lifts up the hairs and 

helps to minimise the pulling sensation.

 -

For optimal performance, place the appliance on the skin at right angles (90°) 

with the on/off slide pointing in the direction in which you are going to move the 

appliance. Guide the appliance across the skin against the direction of hair growth 

in a slow, continuous movement without exer ting any pressure.

 -

On some areas, hair may grow in different directions. In this case, it may be helpful 

to move the appliance in different directions to achieve optimal results.

 -

When you use the hair-lifting attachment with massage element, make sure that the 

massage element and the comb of the hair-lifting attachment always stay in contact 

with the skin.

Preparing for use
Freezing the ice gel pad

Keep the ice gel pad out of the reach of children (Fig. 5).
Do not use a damaged ice gel pad (Fig. 6).
Do not use the ice gel pad if you are hypersensitive to cold.

  1 

  Put the ice gel pad without the cooling glove in the freezer or freezing 

compartment (***) at least 2 hours before you start to epilate (Fig. 7).

Make sure the outside of the ice gel pad is completely dr y before you freeze it.

Tip: You can store the ice gel pad in the freezer permanently.

Using the appliance

Note: Clean the epilating head before first use.

Connecting the appliance

  1 

  Insert the small plug into the appliance (Fig. 8).

  2 

  Insert the adapter into the wall socket.

Epilating the legs with the cooling glove

Use the cooling glove immediately after epilation to soothe and relax your skin.

  1 

  Thoroughly clean the area to be epilated. Remove any residues of oil, cream etc. 

Then dab the area dry.

  2 

  Put the ice gel pad in the compartment of the cooling glove and close the Velcro 

fastener (Fig. 9).

Only use the ice gel pad in combination with the cooling glove.

  3 

  Select the desired speed to switch on the appliance (Fig. 10).

Preferably use speed II. Switch to speed I for areas with little hair growth, for hard-to-

reach areas and for areas where bones are located directly beneath the skin, such as 

knees and ankles.

  4 

  For optimal results, place the epilator at a 90° angle onto the skin with the on/

off slide pointing in the direction in which you are going to move the appliance. 

Stretch your skin with your free hand (Fig. 11).

  5 

  After you have epilated a certain area or after each stroke with the epilator, push 

your hand into the cooling glove and start cooling the area (Fig. 12).

Do not leave the cooling glove on the same area for more than 2 minutes.

Epilating with the hair-lifting attachment with massage element

Use the hair-lifting attachment with massage element when you are new to 

epilation. This attachment ensures optimal hair lifting, relaxes the skin and minimises the 

pulling sensation of epilation.

Note: You get the best results and epilating is most comfortable when the hairs are not too 

long (3-4mm). If the hairs are longer, trim them to this length with the shaving head with 

comb attachment (see section ‘Pretrimming with the shaving head and comb attachment 

before epilation’ in this chapter).

  1 

  Thoroughly clean the area to be epilated. Remove any residues of oil, cream etc. 

Then dab the skin dry.

  2 

  Put the hair-lifting attachment with massage element on the epilating 

head (Fig. 13).

  3 

  Follow steps 3 to 6 in the section ‘Epilating with the cooling glove’ above.

shaving the underarms and bikini line 

Use the shaving head to shave sensitive areas such as the bikini line. 

Note: The shaving head can only be used at speed setting I.

  1 

  Push the epilating head in the direction of the arrows on the back of the 

appliance (1) and remove it from the appliance (2) (Fig. 14).

  2 

  Put the shaving head on the appliance (1) and push it against the direction of the 

arrows on the back of the appliance (2) to fix it.  (Fig. 15)

  3 

  Switch on the appliance.  (Fig. 16)

Note: Speed II does not work when the shaving head is attached.

  4 

  Stretch the skin with your free hand. When shaving the underarms, raise your 

arm to stretch the skin.

  5 

  Place the appliance at a 90° angle onto your skin, with the on/off slide pointing in 

the direction in which you are going to move the appliance.

  6 

  Move the appliance against the direction of hair growth.  (Fig. 17)

Note: Make sure that the shaving foil with integrated trimmer is always fully in contact with 

the skin.

 -

Shave your bikini line as shown in the figure.  (Fig. 18)

 -

Shave your underarms as shown in the figure. Move the appliance in different 

directions.  (Fig. 19)

  When you have finished shaving, switch off the appliance and clean the shaving 

head (see chapter ‘Cleaning and maintenance’). 

  8 

  Put the protection cap on the shaving head when you store the appliance.
