CHAPTER 5
Maintaining!
MAINTENANCE
Your Apilus xCell epilator requires minimal main-
tenance. To protect the original finish, clean it up
with a soft cloth and a mild detergent. If necessary,
clean the cords in the same manner. Do not use
volatile solvents that may damage the case. Make
sure that no liquids penetrate inside the device.
IMPORTANT: Always turn off the power and the
main power switch at the back of the unit during
maintenance.
Touch Screen
The touch screen is an electronic visual display that
the user can control by touching the screen with
their fingers rather than using a mouse or a key-
board. It is fragile and should be cleaned with care
in order to maximize its performance and extend
its use.
Please observe the following maintenance steps:
1. Turn the device off. The screen’s brightness can pre-
vent you from identifying any dust or fingerprints on
the screen.
2. Lightly moisten a microfiber* cloth with distilled wa-
ter. Make sure the cloth is simply damp and not wet.
Clean the screen in a circular motion to remove any
dust, dirt or fingerprints.
3. Wipe the screen with a dry microfiber cloth to re-
move the excess moisture.
4. Clean the touch screen regularly to maximize the
visibily.
5. You must never use organic or solvent based alco-
hols to clean the touch screen, as they can cause
serious damage to it.
* Microfiber cloth used to clean camera lenses or
glasses.
Accessories
The bar electrode or plate electrode should be clea-
ned after every use with an alcohol wipe. The tip of
the brass probeholder can be cleaned with a small
brush and an antibacterial soap. To clean the white
plastic tip, you can use a cotton swab soaked in
antibacterial soap or a dipping solution. The white
plastic tip must never be placed in a bead sterilizer,
an autoclave, or in a sterilizing oven, as it cannot
withstand the high temperatures of these steriliza-
tion devices.
The sponge-like cover can be cleaned using a mix-
ture of soapy water and bleach. You can also use
an antibacterial soap.
IMPORTANT: The probes must not be reused or
transferred from one client to another. It is impor-
tant to only use pre-sterilized probes that are indivi-
dually bagged and then discarded after every use.
They must be disposed in a suitable container that
is clearly identified for contaminated products.
The tweezers used to perform an epilation must be
sterilized after every use. (Follow the proper ste-
rilization procedures according to the education
received).
