Introduction

C◗With your new Satinxice you can remove

unwanted hairs quickly,easily and effectively.

The combination of the proven epilating disc

system with the newly developed skin cooler

constitutes a revolution in epilation.Thanks to

the natural numbing effect of ice on the skin,

the new Satinxice makes epilation more

comfortable and less painful than ever.

◗The Satinxice is particularly suitable for the

legs.The rapidly rotating epilating discs catch

even the shortest hairs (0.5 millimetres!) and

pull them out by the roots.The hairs that

grow back are soft and downy.So no stubble!

Important

◗Check if the mains voltage indicated on the

appliance corresponds to your local mains

voltage before you connect the appliance.

◗Make sure the appliance does not come into

contact with water.

◗Keep the appliance out of the reach of

children.

◗To prevent damage and injuries,keep the

running appliance away from your hair,

eyebrows,eyelashes,clothes,threads,cords,

brushes etc.

◗If the mains cord of this appliance is damaged,

it must always be replaced by the original

type.

◗Please turn to your Philips dealer or to the

Philips Customer Care Centre in your

country for replacement.

Epilation in general

After epilating with the Satinxice,your skin will

stay smooth and hair-free for weeks.As some

women may develop skin irritation and ingrown

hairs,we recommend that you read the text

below carefully.

- Do not use the appliance when the skin to be

epilated is irritated or when you have varicose

veins,pimples, moles (with hairs) or scratches

without consulting your doctor first.When you

have a reduced immune response,e.g.during

pregnancy or if you are suffering from diabetes

mellitus,haemophilia or immunodeficiency,you

might be more susceptible. If any problems

should occur, please contact your doctor as

well.

- Because the appliance pulls the hairs out by the

roots,the skin may be slightly sensitive or

become somewhat red and irritated.This

phenomenon is absolutely normal (especially

when you have just started using the appliance)

and will quickly disappear.As you use the

appliance more often,the skin irritation will

decrease.Moreover,the hairs that grow back

after epilation gradually become softer and

easier to remove. If,however, your skin irritation

has not disappeared within three days,you are

advised to consult your doctor.

- When you epilate for the first time,we advise

you to try the appliance out on an area with

relatively little hair growth. In this way you can

get accustomed to this epilating method.

ENGLISH 5

- Type HP6434/PB only:This appliance has been

extensively tested on the underarm and bikini-

line areas.Some women may develop skin

irritation when they use this appliance to

epilate these parts of their body for the first

time.We advise you to try the appliance out on

a small patch of skin first.

- Regular cleaning and proper maintenance are

essential to guarantee the best results and to

prolong the life of the appliance.

Tips

- Regular massages with a loofah (types

HP6433/PB, HP6434/PB,HP6435/PB only) may

help prevent ingrown hairs.When the skin

surface is carefully scrubbed with a loofah, fine

hairs will continue to grow without a problem.

Do not scrub immediately before or after

epilating.

- Applying a mild cream or body milk after

epilation will help to reduce any skin irritation

that may develop.

- Hairs are easier to remove after you have taken

a bath or a shower. Make sure your skin is

completely dry when you start to epilate.

- We advise you to epilate in the evening,as this

will allow any skin irritation that may develop to

disappear during the night.
