Answer
Instantaneous flash from a xenon
lamp.
This is because of unstable
hormone balance when growing
up and the skin can become
sensitive easily.
Only use the appliance on
underarms, arms, legs or bikini-
line. (Do not use the appliance on
the face or other areas.)
Using the appliance on the same
area everyday is not
recommended.
Please follow the guide for
treatment frequency and time.
(See page 13.)
This is because the flash applies
heat to unwanted hair, and is not
a sign of a malfunction. Remove
any hair if it has grown too long.
Also remove all trimmings
remaining on the skin.
Apply the flash switch closely
against the skin. (See page 15.)
If the light is still a concern, wear
sunglasses or other eye protection.
