2. Silk’n Glide™ Intended Use
3. Safety with Silk’n Glide™
Silk’n Glide™ may be used to remove unwanted body hair. Ideal body areas for Silk’n Glide™ use include the
underarms, bikini line, arms, legs, face, back, shoulders and chest.
With Silk’n Glide™ Safety Comes First.
HPL™ technology in Silk’n Glide™ - Superior safety with lower energy level:
Home Pulsed Light™ technology is able to achieve long-term hair removal results at a fraction of the energy
level used in other light-based hair removal equipment. The low energy used in Silk’n Glide™ reduces its
potential to cause harm or complications, and contributes to your overall safety.
Silk’n Glide™ protects your skin:
Light based hair removal is not suitable for naturally darker skin tones or tanned skin. Silk’n Glide™ comes
with a built-in SKIN COLOR SENSOR that is designed to measure the complexion of the applied surface
and enable application only on suitable skin complexions. This unique safety feature will not let you treat
where your skin is too dark or too tanned.
Furthermore, the 3cm² TREATMENT SURFACE through which pulses of light are delivered is recessed
inside the device. This enables Glide™ to protect your skin by avoiding direct contact between the
TREATMENT SURFACE and the skin.
Silk’n Glide™ protects your eyes:
Silk’n Glide™ has a built-in safety feature for eye protection. It has been designed so that a light pulse can not
be emitted when the TREATMENT SURFACE is facing open air. The safety feature enables treatment only
when the TREATMENT SURFACE is in contact with the tissue.
Silk’n Glide™ is intended for removal of unwanted hair. Silk’n Glide™ is also intended to eect long term,
or permanent hair reduction. Permanent hair reduction is defined as a long-term stable reduction in the
number of hairs re-growing after a treatment regime.

7. Possible side effects using Silk’n Glide™
When used according to the instructions, side eects and complications associated with use of Silk’n Glide™ are
uncommon. However every cosmetic procedure, including those designed for home use, involves some degree
of risk. Therefore it is important that you understand and accept the risks and complications that can occur with
pulsed light hair removal systems designed for home use.
Adverse Reaction
Degree
of Risk
Minor Skin Discomfort –
Although home pulsed light hair removal is generally very well-tolerated, most users do feel
some mild discomfort during use, usually described as being a mild stinging sensation on
the treated skin areas. The stinging sensation usually lasts during the time of the application
itself or for a few minutes thereafter. Anything beyond this minor discomfort is abnormal
and means that either you should not continue to use Silk’n Glide™ because you are
unable to tolerate the hair removal application, or that the energy level setting is too high.
Minor
Skin Redness –
Your skin may become red right after using Silk’n Glide™ or within 24 hours of using Silk’n
Glide™. Redness generally clears up within 24 hours. See your doctor if redness does not go
away within 2 to 3 days.
Minor
Increased Sensitivity to Skin –
The skin of the treated area is more sensitive so you may encounter dryness or flaking of the skin.
Minor
Pigment Changes –
Silk’n Glide™ targets the hair shaft, in particular the pigmented cells in the hair follicle and
the hair follicle itself. Nevertheless there is risk of temporary hyperpigmentation (increased
pigment or brown discoloration) or hypopigmentation (whitening) to the surrounding skin.
This risk of changes in skin pigmentation is higher for people with darker skin tones. Usually
discoloration or changes to skin pigment are temporary and permanent hyperpigmentation
or hypopigmentation rarely occur.
Rare
Excessive Redness and Swelling –
In rare cases treated skin may become very red and swollen. This is more common in
sensitive areas of the body. The redness and swelling should subside within 2 to 7 days and
should be treated with frequent applications of ice. Gentle cleansing is OK, but one should
avoid exposure to sun.
Rare

A typical full hair growth cycle may take 18-24 months. During this time multiple Glide™ sessions may be
required in order to achieve permanent hair removal.
The eciency of hair removal varies from person to person according to body area, hair color, and how
Silk’n Glide™ is used.
Typical Silk’n Glide™ hair removal plan during a full hair growth cycle:
Treatments 1-4 – plan two weeks apart
Treatments 5-7 – plan four weeks apart
Treatments 8 + – treat as needed, until desired results are achieved.
1. Individual response depends on hair type as well as biological factors that may aect hair growth patterns. Some users may respond quicker or slower than
the average number of treatments.
2. One cannot expect permanent hair removal in a single or even double treatment sessions. The duration of the resting period for hair follicles also
depends on the body area.

9. Get Started!
1. Remove Silk’n Glide™ HAIR REMOVAL DEVICE and other components from box.
2. Plug the ADAPTOR cord into the Silk’n Glide™ HAIR REMOVAL DEVICE socket.
3. Plug the ADAPTOR into an electrical outlet. All indicator lights in the CONTROL PAD will turn on and o
repeatedly in a circular motion.
Your Silk’n Glide™ is now ready to start.
Choose areas to treat that have not had recent exposure to the sun.
Treat with Silk’n Glide™ safely and properly!
4. The skin of the treatment areas should be shaved, clean, dry and free of any powders, antiperspirants or
deodorants. Do not wax, pluck or tweeze the hair out. Shaving is an important step to get the results you want!
Best results will be reached when you shave 3 days prior to the treatment or when the hair is 1-2 mm - 3/32 inch.
5. Press the CENTRAL BUTTON. The device will turn on, the Energy Level 1 INDICATOR LIGHT will turn on
and a fan sound will start.
6. Approximately 1 second after pressing the CENTRAL BUTTON, the READY/SKIN TONE WARNING
INDICATOR LIGHT will turn on. The device is then ready for you to trigger the first pulse at the lowest
energy level.
7. If this is your first treatment - Choose the energy level. Glide™ oers 5 levels of energy from 1 (the lowest) to
5 (the highest). To choose the right energy level for your first treatment, test each treatment area separately:
Place the TREATMENT SURFACE on the skin and press the trigger to deliver one pulse. If you did
not experience abnormal discomfort press the CENTRAL BUTTON again. This will increase the
energy level. Deliver one pulse on a dierent spot at energy level 2.
Continue testing at increased energy levels until you have reached the highest level that you feel
comfortable with. If within one hour you experience no adverse eects, you can start your full
treatment at that energy level.
Repeat this test for each body part you intend to treat.
8. Set the energy level. To set an energy level higher or lower, press the CENTRAL BUTTON repeatedly to
increase the energy level from 1 to 5 and from 5 directly back to 1, until the desired energy level is set.
The ENERGY LEVEL INDICATOR LIGHTS will indicate the energy level setting. (For details see “Energy
Level” chapter inside this user manual).
11
English
9. Apply the TREATMENT SURFACE to the skin, making sure the skin is spread evenly and smoothly. As
soon as the TREATMENT SURFACE is in full contact with the skin, the READY/SKIN TONE WARNING
INDICATOR LIGHT will start blinking slowly.
10. Press the PULSE TRIGGER. The device will first determine the color of your skin. If the color of the skin
is light enough for safe application, the device will flash a pulse of light onto your skin, and the READY/SKIN
TONE WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT will turn o. You will see a bright flash of light and simultaneously
hear a subtle pop sound, which is a normal noise for the device. You will feel a mild sensation of warmth
and tingling.
Silk’n Glide™ will immediately recharge for the next pulse.
After a few seconds (depending on the set energy level) the READY/SKIN TONE WARNING
INDICATOR LIGHT will turn on again, and start blinking slowly when attached again to the skin.
11. Remove the TREATMENT SURFACE from the treated area of skin.
12. Choose a method of application for your session. Glide™ can be applied in two ways: “Pulsing” and
“Gliding” (for more details see application methods frame below).
For the PULSING method, follow steps 9-11 above on another spot repeatedly until the entire area
is fully covered.
For the GLIDING method, hold the PULSE TRIGGER down continuously, and slide the device
smoothly along the treated area.
Energy Level
Energy level determines the intensity of the Silk’n Glide™ light pulse delivered to your skin. As energy
level increases, so does hair removal results as well as the risk of possible side eects and complications.
Glide™ oers 5 levels of energy from 1 (the lowest) to 5 (the highest), represented by 5 ENERGY LEVEL
INDICATOR LIGHTS.
Whenever Silk’n Glide™ is turned on its energy level will automatically be reset to the lowest energy level.
Only one ENERGY LEVEL INDICATOR LIGHT will be on. To set the energy level, press the CENTRAL
BUTTON repeatedly to increase the energy level from 1 to 5 and from 5 directly back to 1 .
If your skin blisters or burns, STOP USE IMMEDIATELY!
Methods of application
PULSING
PULSING is the best technique for working with higher energy levels as it enables better control of skin
coverage. When pulsing, Glide™ pulses should be administered in rows, starting at one end of each row and
progressing sequentially towards the other end helping you avoid treating the same area more than once
or overlapping skin areas. When pulsing, the Silk’n Glide™ TREATMENT SURFACE is designed to create
12
English
The Skin Color Sensor
Light-based hair removal on darker skin tones can result in adverse eects such as burns, blisters, and skin
color changes (hyper- or hypo-pigmentation).
To prevent such misuse, a unique SKIN COLOR SENSOR in Silk’n Glide™ measures the treated skin
complexion at the beginning of each session and occasionally during the session. If the SKIN COLOR
SENSOR detects a skin tone that is too dark for Silk’n Glide™ application, the device will automatically
stop emitting pulses.
If you see no light pulse and the READY/SKIN TONE WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT is rapidly blinking,
this is an indication that your skin tone, measured by the SKIN COLOR SENSOR, is too dark for safe
application. Try using the device on a dierent body part or contact the Silk’n™ support.
GLIDING
GLIDING is the best way to work within the low energy levels and achieve a fast and more ecient session.
When Gliding, hold the PULSE TRIGGER down continuously, and using a slow sliding motion while keeping
contact with the skin, smoothly move the device along the treated area. In the lower energy levels the device
takes only 1-1.5 seconds to recharge between pulses and provides a nonstop sequence of flashes.
If your skin blisters or burns, STOP USE IMMEDIATELY!
Try to avoid overlapping pulses!
Do not treat the same area of skin more than once per hair removal session!
Treating the same area of skin more than once per session increases the likelihood of
adverse eects.
temporary pressure marks on the treated area. In every repositioning of the TREATMENT SURFACE use
these pressure marks to guide you for proper positioning of the next pulse, avoiding both gaps and overlaps
between pulses.

English
9.2. After treating with Silk’n Glide™
1. When Glide™ session has been completed turn Glide™ o by giving the CENTRAL BUTTON an extended
press. Be sure to remember the last energy level setting you used, as it will not be restored when turning
Glide™ on again.
2. Unplug the ADAPTOR cord from the electrical outlet.
3. After each hair removal session it is recommended that you clean your Silk’n Glide™ device, especially the
TREATMENT SURFACE (See: “Cleaning Silk’n Glide™”).
4. After cleaning, it is recommended to store your Silk’n Glide™ device in its original box, and keep it away
from water.
9.1. What to Expect when treating with Silk’n Glide™?
For many people, using Silk’n Glide™ may be their first experience with a light-based device designed for
home use. Silk’n Glide™ is simple to use, and hair removal sessions go by quickly. During a Silk’n Glide™
session it is normal to experience and feel:
A Fan Noise – The cooling fan in Silk’n Glide™ makes noise similar to a hairdryer. This is normal.
A Pop Sound with Each Pulse – When a pulse of HPL™ light is activated, it is normal to hear a subtle pop
sound simultaneously with the flash of light.
A Sensation of Warmth and Tingling – During each pulse of light it is normal to feel a mild sensation of
warmth and tingling from the light energy.
Some Mild Red or Pink Color – During and just after your Silk’n Glide™ session it is not uncommon to
see some very mild, pink-like color of the skin. This is usually most noticeable around the hairs themselves.
However if you see full redness of the skin, blistering or burns stop use of Silk’n Glide™ immediately.
Skin care following hair removal session
Do not expose areas of skin treated in energy levels 2-5 to the sun. Be sure to carefully
protect the treated skin with sunscreen, throughout the hair removal period and for at
least 2 weeks following the last Silk’n Glide™ session.
10. Maintenance of Silk’n Glide™
10.1. Cleaning Silk’n Glide™
After each hair removal session, it is recommended to clean your Silk’n Glide™ device, and especially the
TREATMENT SURFACE.
1. Unplug Silk’n Glide™ before cleaning.
2. Use a dry, clean cloth and a specially formulated cleaning detergent for electronic equipment to gently wipe
Silk’n Glide™ surface, and especially the TREATMENT SURFACE.
Never immerse Silk’n Glide™ or any of its parts in water!
14
English
Do not attempt to open or repair your Silk’n Glide™ device. Only authorized
Silk’n™ repair centers are permitted to perform repairs.
11. Troubleshooting
11.1. “My Silk’n Glide™ does not start.”
Make sure the ADAPTOR is properly connected to the Glide™ device.
Make sure the ADAPTOR is plugged into an electrical outlet on the wall.
11.2. “A light pulse is not emitted when I press the PULSE TRIGGER”
Make sure that the READY/SKIN TONE WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT is blinking slowly to ensure you have
good contact with the skin and that the TREATMENT SURFACE is evenly and firmly pressed to the skin. For
your safety, the PULSE TRIGGER will activate a pulse only if the TREATMENT SURFACE is firmly pressed against
the skin.
Check the SKIN TONE WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT. If it blinks rapidly, this is an indication that your skin
tone, measured by the SKIN COLOR SENSOR, is too dark for safe application. Try using the device on a
dierent body part or contact the Silk’n™ support.
If the light is constantly on, together with any number of indicator lights, you have a system error. If this
problem persists, contact your local Glide™ Customer Service Center.
If these problems persist, contact your local Silk’n™ Customer Service Center.
Check if all lights are blinking together in a circle . If so, unplug the device from its power source. The device
has reached its End of Life stage. This device is to be orderly disposed of. Deliver your old equipment to the
nearest electronic waste collection point for safe and ecient disposal.
Opening Silk’n Glide™ may expose you to dangerous electrical components and to pulsed light energy, either
of which may cause serious bodily damage and/or permanent eye injury.
Trying to open Silk’n Glide™ may also damage the device and will void your warranty.

2. Der Verwendungszweck von Silk’n Glide™
3. Sicherheit mit Silk’n Glide™
Silk’n Glide™ kann für die Entfernung ungewollten Körperhaars verwendet werden.
Für die Verwendung von Silk’n Glide™ stellen Achselhöhlen, Bikinizone, Arme, Beine, Gesicht, Rücken,
Schultern und Brust die idealen Körperstellen dar.
Mit Silk’n Glide™ steht die Sicherheit an erster Stelle
HPL™- Technologie bei Silk’n Glide™ – Ausgezeichnete Sicherheit bei einer niedrigeren Energiehöhe:
Die Home Pulsed Light™ Technologie ist im Stande, langfristige Haarentfernungsresultate zu einem Bruchteil
der Energiehöhe zu erreichen, die andere auf Licht basierende Haarentfernungsvorrichtungen benötigen.
Die geringe Energie, die von Silk’n Glide™ verwendet wird, vermindert das Potenzial, Schaden oder
Komplikationen zuzufügen, und trägt zu Ihrer allgemeinen Sicherheit bei.
Silk’n Glide™ schützt Ihre Haut:
Eine auf Licht basierende Haarentfernung ist nicht für eine natürlich dunkle Haut oder sonnengebräunte
Haut geeignet. Silk’n Glide™ besitzt einen Hautfarben-Sensor, der die Hautpigmentation auf der zu
behandelnden Fläche misst und die Verwendung nur bei einer geeigneten Hautpigmentation ermöglicht.
Diese einzigartige Sicherheitsvorrichtung wird Ihnen eine Behandlung auf zu dunkler oder sonnengebräunter
Haut verweigern. Darüber hinaus ist die 3cm²-BEHANDLUNGSFLÄCHE, durch die die Lichtpulse
abgegeben werden, in das Gerät eingelassen. Dadurch schützt das™ Ihre Haut, da ein direkter Kontakt der
BEHANDLUNGSFLÄCHEmit der Haut vermieden wird.
Silk’n Glide™ schützt Ihre Augen:
Das Silk’n Glide™ verfügt über eine integrierte Sicherheitsfunktion zum Schutz der Augen. Es ist so
konzipiert, dass die Lichtpulse nicht ausgesendet werden können, wenn die BEHANDLUNGSFLÄCHE
in die Luft zeigt. Durch diese Sicherheitsfunktion ist eine Behandlung nur möglich, wenn sich die
BEHANDLUNGSFLÄCHE in Kontakt mit Gewebe befindet.
Silk’n Glide™ ist für die Entfernung ungewollten Körperhaars vorgesehen. Silk’n Glide™ ist außerdem für
langzeitliche oder dauerhafte Haarentfernung vorgesehen. Unter einer dauerhaften Haarentfernung versteht
man die langzeitliche, beständige Reduzierung der nachwachsenden Haare nach einem Behandlungszyklus.

4. Gegenanzeigen
Silk’n Glide™ ist nicht für jede Person geeignet. Bitte lesen und beachten Sie die Informationen des
nachfolgenden Abschnitts vor dem Gebrauch. Für weitere Informationen und für eine personalisierte Auskunft
können Sie www.siln.com oder Ihren örtlichen Kundendienst von Silk’n Glide™ aufsuchen.
Ontharing met behulp van lasers of intense lichtbronnen kan bij sommige personen leiden tot een toegenomen
haargroei. Op basis van de thans beschikbare gegevens, lopen vrouwen van Mediterrane, Midden-Oostelijke en
Zuid-Aziatische afkomst die hun gezicht of nek behandelen, het grootste risico op deze reactie.
Wichtige Sicherheitsinformationen - Bitte lesen Sie sie vor dem Gebrauch!
Warnung Mögliche Resultate Sicherheitshinweis
Verwenden Sie Silk’n Glidenicht
auf einer natürlichen dunklen
Hautfarbe.
Siehe die Haar- und
Hautfarbentabelle auf der
Verpackung.
Das Behandeln einer dunklen Haut
mit Silk’n Glide kann zu negativen
Auswirkungen wie zum Beispiel Rötungen
oder Schmerzen auf der Haut führen
Ein einzigartiger HAUTFARBEN-
SENSOR ist in dem Silk’n Glide™ Gerät
eingeschlossen, um die behandelte Haut-
pigmentierung zu Beginn jeder Sitzung
und gelegentlich nach einer Sitzung zu
messen. Der HAUTFARBEN-SENSOR
sorgt dafür, dass Pulse nur auf geeignete
Hauttypen abgegeben werden.
Verwenden Sie die
Energiestufen 2-5 des auf
gebräunter Haut oder direkt
nach dem Sonnenbad (auch
bei Sonnenbänken und
Sonnenstudios).
Setzen Sie die behandelten
Hautflächen nicht der
Sonne aus.
Die Behandlung mit den Energiestufen
2-5 des Silk’n Glide vor und nach dem
Sonnenbad kann zu Nebenwirkungen
wie Rötungen und Hautreizungen führen.
Gebräunte Haut, insbesondere nach dem
Sonnenbad, enthält große Mengen des Pig-
ments Melanin.
Dies gilt für sämtliche Hauttypen und -far-
ben, auch für diejenigen, die anscheinend
nicht schnell bräunen.
Die Präsenz einer großen Menge an
Melanin setzt die Haut einem höheren
Risiko aus, wenn Sie auf Licht basierende
Haarentfernungsvorrichtungen verwen-
den.
Wenn Sie eine höhere Energiestufe als die
niedrigste verwenden, müssen Sie vor der
Silk’n Glide™-Behandlung mindestens 4 und
nach der Silk’n Glide™-Behandlung mindestens
2 Wochen lang ein Sonnenbad vermeiden! Eine
Sonnenexposition stellt eine ungeschützte,
konstante Exposition mit direktem Sonnenlicht
für über 15 Minuten, oder eine ungeschützte
Exposition mit diusem Licht für über eine
Stunde dar. Gehen Sie sicher, dass Sie die
behandelte Haut sorgfältig mit Sonnencreme
mit einem Lichtschutzfaktor von 30 oder
höher während der Zeit der Haarentfernung
und mindestens 2 Wochen im Anschluss der
letzten Haarentfernungssitzung schützen.
Die niedrigste Energiestufe (1) des Silk’n
Glide ist speziell für eine sichere Verwendung
nach einem Sonnenbad entwickelt worden.
Nach einem Sonnenbad können Sie das Silk’n
Glide weiter verwenden, jedoch nur auf der
niedrigsten Energiestufe.
Nicht
sicher!
