Quick Start Guide:
- Remove the Silk'n Flash&Go™ HAIR REMOVAL UNIT and other components from the packaging.
- Verify that the DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE is inserted properly.
- Plug the ADAPTOR cord into the Silk'n Flash&Go™ HAIR REMOVAL UNIT.
- Plug the ADAPTOR into an electrical outlet. The STAND BY INDICATOR on your Silk'n Flash&Go™ is now ready to start.
- Choose areas to treat that have not had recent exposure to the sun.
- The skin of the treatment areas should be shaved, clean, dry and free of deodorants. Do not wax, pluck or tweeze the hair out. Shaving is an important step to get the results you want!
- Press the ON/STBY SWITCH. The POWER ON INDICATOR (green) will turn on.
- Approximately 3.5 seconds after pressing the ON/STBY SWITCH, the fan sound (similar to the sound of a hairdryer) will start. The device is then ready for you to trigger the energy level.
- If this is your first treatment, choose the energy level. Flash&Go has 5 levels (1 the lowest to 5 the highest). To choose the right energy level for your treatment area separately.
Operating the Device
The Silk'n Flash&Go Pro utilizes advanced technology for effective hair removal. The device features a skin tone sensor and a movement sensor to ensure safe and efficient operation.
- Power Levels: The device offers 5 adjustable energy levels. Start with a lower level and gradually increase as your skin tolerates.
- Skin Tone Sensor: The integrated skin tone sensor automatically detects your skin complexion. If the skin is too dark for a safe treatment at the selected energy level, the device will adjust the power down or prevent flashing.
- Touch&Glide Technology: This feature allows for continuous flashing as you glide the device over your skin, making treatments quicker and more convenient.
- Movement Sensor: The device will only flash when it is in full contact with the skin and moving, ensuring precise application.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Silk'n Flash&Go Pro, regular maintenance is recommended:
- Cleaning: After each use, ensure the device is unplugged and cool. Gently wipe the flash window and the surrounding area with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
- Storage: Store the device in its original packaging or a protective case in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.
- Lamp Cartridge: The Flash&Go Pro is designed for lifetime flashes, meaning no refill cartridges are needed. However, ensure the lamp cartridge area is kept clean.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Silk'n Flash&Go Pro, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:
- Device Not Flashing: Ensure the device is properly plugged into a working electrical outlet. Verify that the skin tone sensor is in full contact with the skin and that your skin tone is compatible with the device's safety parameters. The device will not flash if skin contact is not detected or if the skin is too dark.
- Blinking Indicator Lights: If certain indicator lights are blinking, it may signal a specific issue. Refer to the detailed manual for specific blinking patterns and their corresponding solutions. For example, a blinking light might indicate the need for a flash replacement (though this model is designed for lifetime flashes, older models or specific issues might trigger such warnings).
- Device Getting Hot: It is normal for the device to warm up during use. However, if it becomes excessively hot or uncomfortable, discontinue use and allow it to cool down. Ensure proper ventilation around the device during operation.
