8. Cleaning and maintenance
After each hair removal session it is recommended that you clean your device, paying par-
ticular attention to the light area.
When cleaning, do not use any solvents or other aggressive or abrasive cleaning
agents, as the surface may become damaged.
Never immerse the device or any of its parts in water!
1. Before cleaning, remove the mains adapter of the device from the socket.
2. Clean the housing of the device with a dry, clean cloth.
3. Gently clean the light area and skin contact sensor using a slightly
damp, lint-free cloth.
9. What if there are problems?
"The device will not switch on"
• Ensure that the mains cable is correctly connected to the device.
• Ensure that the mains adapter is inserted into a wall socket.
"No light pulse is emitted when I press the trigger button"
• Ensure that the device is in full contact with the skin and that the light area and skin con-
tact sensor are pressed onto the skin evenly and firmly. For your safety, the trigger but-
ton only activates a pulse if the skin contact sensor is completely covered by the skin.
• If the indicator lamp on the device is illuminated red, this indicates that your skin colour,
as measured by the skin colour sensor, is too dark for safe application. Test the device
on another part of your body or contact Customer Services.
• If the indicator lamp on the device is illuminated orange, this indicates that the contact
with the skin, as measured by the skin contact sensor, is insufficient. Increase the level of
contact with the skin or contact Customer Services.
• If the indicator lamp permanently lights up red, the maximum number of pulses has been
reached.
10. Disposal
For environmental reasons, do not dispose of the device in the household waste
at the end of its useful life. Dispose of the unit at a suitable local collection or recy-
cling point. Dispose of the device in accordance with EC Directive – WEEE (Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment). If you have any questions, please contact the
local authorities responsible for waste disposal.
