Philips HP6490 Manuale Utente

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.

We advise you to epilate before you go to bed at night, as 

this allows any skin irritation that may develop to diminish 

overnight.
corded use

Do not run the appliance from the mains when the batteries are fully 

charged. 

 1 

 To run the appliance from the mains, switch off the appliance and 

connect it to the mains. Wait a few seconds before you switch on 

the appliance.
 Epilating the legs

Make sure your skin is clean, entirely dry and free from grease. Do not 

use any cream before you start to epilate. 

 1 

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

Select speed I for areas with little hair growth and for areas where bones 

are located directly beneath the skin, such as knees and ankles.

Select speed II for larger areas with stronger hair growth.

  

 Stretch your skin with your free hand to make the hairs stand 

upright.

  

 Place the appliance perpendicularly onto the skin with the epilating 

head pointing forward. Move the appliance against the direction of 

hair growth at a moderate speed.  (Fig. 5)

Make sure both the epilating discs and the massaging element are in 

proper contact with the skin.

Press the appliance lightly onto the skin.

If you are not completely satisfied with the epilation result, try 

moving the epilator more slowly over your skin.
