In the following we would like to familiarise
you with the appliance and provide some
useful information about epilation. Please
read the use instructions carefully and
thoroughly before using the appliance.
Braun Silk·épil EverSoft has been de-
signed to make the removal of unwanted
hair as efficient, gentle and easy as pos-
sible. Its proven epilation system removes
your hair at the root, leaving your skin
smooth for weeks.
The high-precision standard epilation
head
B
with its unique arrangement
of tweezers and the integrated feed-in
geometry ensures an efficient epilation
and removes even hair as short as
0.5 mm at the root. As the hair that
re-grows is fine and soft, there will be
no more stubble.
The EverSoft attachment makes the
epilation ultra gentle. With its pulsating
movement it stimulates and relaxes the
skin, thus masking the pulling sensation.
If you have not used an epilator before, or
if you have not epilated for a longer period
of time, it may take a short while for your
skin to adapt to epilation. The discomfort
experienced at first is considerably re-
duced with repeated use as the number of
hair to be removed decreases over time
and as the skin adjusts to the process.
The Braun Silk·épil EverSoft Easy Start
has been specially designed to make your
start in epilation easy as it gently helps
your skin in the adjustment phase.
The starter epilation head
b
has been
developed especially for the first few
epilations, when skin is not yet used to the
process and also for sensitive skin.
Compared to the standard epilation head
it has fewer tweezers that are further
apart, pulling out less hair simul-
taneously. This makes the process much
gentler and helps your skin adjust to
epilation, but will take a bit longer than
with the standard epilation head.
The cooling application provides addi-
tional help to reduce possible skin
irritation after epilation and will also leave
the skin feeling cool and fresh.
Important
• This appliance must never be used near
water (e.g. a filled wash basin, bathtub
or shower).
• Keep the appliance out of the reach of
children.
• 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
prevent blockage or damage to the ap-
pliance.
• Before use, check whether your voltage
corresponds to the voltage printed on
the transformer. Always use the country-
specific 12 V transformer plug supplied
with the product( USA/CDN: type
Pl-41-77 D-1, Mexico: Pl-41-77 AR,
Argentina: Pl-41-77 IR).
General information on epilation
Silk·épil is designed to remove hair on
legs, but it can also be used on all sensi-
tive areas like forearms, the underarm or
the bikini line.
All methods of hair removal at the root can
lead to in-growing hair and irritation (e.g.
itching, discomfort or reddening of the
skin), depending on the condition of the
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.
Using the cooling application will help to
prevent irritation.
