Braun Silk-epil SuperSoft EE 1030 Mode D'emploi page 6

• Silk·épil is designed to remove
hair on legs, but can also be used
on all sensitive areas like arms,
underarms or the bikini line.
• When switched on, the appliance
must never come in contact with
the hair on your head, eyelashes,
ribbons, etc. to prevent any
danger of injury as well as to prev-
ent blockage or damage to the
appliance.
Underarm and bikini line epilation
Use tests monitored by dermatol-
ogists have shown that the epilator
head may as well be used underarm
and at the bikini line. Be aware that
these areas are particularly sensitive
to pain. However, the pain sensation
will diminish with repeated usage.
For this specific application, we
would like to give the following
advice:
• Before epilating, thoroughly clean
the respective area to remove
residue (like deodorant).
Then dry carefully with a towel
using a dabbing action to avoid
skin irritation.
• Hair should not be longer than
5 mm.
• After use, apply Silk·épil cream or
baby powder (don't use alcoholic
deodorants).
How to operate your Silk·épil
Before starting off, make sure that
the epilator head is thoroughly
cleaned and disinfected. Your skin
must be dry and free from grease
or cream.
• Plug the cord connector into the
socket and plug the transformer
into an electrical outlet.

Apply the Silk·épil at right angles

gently, guide it slowly against the
hair growth. Underarm this means
guiding the appliance in different
directions. Do not press too hard.
On bony parts, we recommend
to use a lower switch setting.
