4. Setup and First Use

1. Unpack the Device: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Ensure you have the base unit, handheld applicator, power cord, and any included attachments (e.g., facial attachment).
2. Connect Power: Plug the power cord into the base unit, then plug the other end into a suitable electrical outlet. The device is mains powered.
3. Attach Applicator: Ensure the handheld applicator is securely connected to the base unit.
4. Skin Preparation: Before treatment, ensure the skin is clean, dry, and free of any lotions, gels, or deodorants. Shave the area to be treated. Do not wax or pluck hair, as the IPL technology targets the hair follicle.
5. Perform Skin Test: Before your first full treatment, perform a skin test on a small area of skin you intend to treat. Wait 24 hours to check for any adverse reactions. This helps determine the appropriate intensity level for your skin type.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Skin Tone Sensor

The device features an integrated skin tone sensor. This sensor automatically detects your skin tone and prevents flashing if the skin is too dark for safe treatment. Always ensure the sensor is in full contact with the skin before activating a flash.

5.2 Selecting Intensity Level

Based on your skin test and comfort, select the appropriate intensity level using the controls on the device. Start with a lower setting and gradually increase if comfortable and no adverse reactions occur.

5.3 Treatment Modes

• Single Flash Mode: Ideal for precise areas like the face, underarms, or bikini line. Place the applicator firmly on the skin, press the flash button, and move to the next adjacent area.
• Multi-Flash Mode (Glide Mode): Suitable for larger body areas such as legs or arms. Place the applicator firmly on the skin and glide it slowly over the treatment area while holding down the flash button. The device will emit continuous flashes.
