We at Pacific Bioscience Laboratories are excited to share our product with you and hope that you enjoy using it. We’ve designed Clarisonic to work with the natural elasticity of the skin. It gently flexes the skin to help open the pores and loosen dirt and oil. The back and forth sonic oscillating motion of the inner brush effectively cleans, clarifies, and stimulates the skin to give you a deep, gentle cleansing, leaving your skin feeling and looking smoother. We think it’s the best minute you can give your skin every day. We’d love to hear how Clarisonic works for you. E-mail me at CEO@clarisonic.com, or call us at 1-888-5-CLARISONIC (1-888-525-2747). Sincerely,David Giuliani CEO, Chairman Pacific Bioscience Laboratories, Inc.
3EFDAGCBABCDEFGYOUR CLARISONICCongratulations! You are about to experience the new wave of skin care with the Clarisonic® Skin Care Brush. Before you start, please take the time to get to know your Clarisonic and how it works. The Clarisonic sonic technology works with the natural elasticity of the skin to provide deep, thorough, gentle daily cleansing of the skin. Cleansing is the foundation of a complete skin care routine. Oscillating back and forth at a sonic frequency that produces about 300 movements per second, a flexing action is created between the outer and inner brushes that works deep within the pores to loosen dirt and oil. The brush motion effectively cleans, clarifies and stimulates, resulting in smoother feeling and looking skin.1-888-525-2747 HANDLE BRUSH HEAD normal (gray base) sensitive, installed (white base) CHARGING CRADLE POWER BUTTON GREEN LIGHT charge indicator YELLOW LIGHT power level indicator CLEANSER

6USING YOUR CLARISONICRead through this entire section before using your Clarisonic. Prior to the first use, charge the Clarisonic brush handle for 24 hours by plugging the charging cradle into an electrical outlet and placing the Clarisonic in the charging cradle, making sure the handle is in the proper position with the brush head facing the power cord (see diagram on page 2). Once your Clarisonic is fully charged, it’s time to begin your Clarisonic experience. For your convenience, your Clarisonic handle is waterproof and may be used in the shower or bathtub. Refer to Important Safeguards regarding the charging cradle.The Clarisonic is designed for use with most skin types. Your skin is constantly changing, and due to its dynamic nature you may want to use different power levels, different brush heads, and a shorter or longer duration. The Clarisonic is packaged with the Sensitive brush head (white plastic base) installed. The Normal brush head (gray plastic base) is also included. We recommend that you first use your Clarisonic with the Sensitive brush head at the low power setting for a one-minute duration (this is the factory setting). Then you can customize your Clarisonic for your skin type: sensitive or normal brush head; normal or low power setting; one- or two-minute duration (with the T-TIMER™ feature enabled). If you use makeup, remove eye makeup by hand first and wet your skin with warm water prior to use. Liberally apply cleanser to your skin and wet the brush head with warm water. Then gently apply the brush to your skin, beginning on the forehead as described in the Cleansing Timer section below. Push the power button to turn your Clarisonic on and gently move the brush using a small circular motion. Pressing too hard will impede the motion of the brush and reduce its effectiveness. The outer brushes are designed to contain any residual mist from the oscillating of the brush, so be sure to hold the brush head flush to your skin. Clarisonic also effectively clarifies the neck, back, décolleté (upper chest), shoulders, arms, and the back of the hands.It is recommended that you do not share a brush head with another individual. Do not share brushes if you or any other Clarisonic user have any skin conditions. To dry the brush after use, rub it against a towel for 5-10 seconds while the Clarisonic is powered on (optional). 7Your Clarisonic is programmed to operate in a variety of power settings and brushing durations, both with and without the T-timer feature, as described below. POWER LEVELThe Clarisonic Skin Care Brush offers a choice of 2 power levels: normal and low. The power level is indicated both audibly and visually. When the Clarisonic is turned on at the normal power level, there are 3 ascending beeps and the yellow light is illuminated. At the low power level, there are 3 descending beeps and the yellow light is turned off. Power level Audible indication Visible indicationNormal 3 ascending beeps yellow light onLow 3 descending beeps yellow light off To toggle between the settings, hold the power button down for 3 seconds continuously when turning on the Clarisonic. Listen for the change in beeps to confirm the power level. The Clarisonic will operate at this power setting until you change it. CLEANSING TIMERFor even and thorough cleansing of your face, the Clarisonic features a proprietary one-minute T-timer that beeps and pauses momentarily to indicate it is time to move to another part of your face. We recommend that you spend the first 20 seconds of brush time on your forehead, 20 seconds on your nose/chin region, and 10 seconds on each cheek. The Clarisonic is factory set with a one-minute duration. To pause the cleansing cycle for up to 30 seconds, simply press the power button. The yellow light will flash (indicating pause mode) and the Clarisonic will automatically remember the remaining time on the T-timer. To resume, press the power button again. When finished, rinse your skin with warm water and rinse the brush head of the Clarisonic with warm water. To change the cleansing duration, turn your Clarisonic on and hold the power button for at least 10 seconds. At around 3 seconds, you will hear three tones (related to the Power Level) and then you will hear beep tones relating to the optional cleansing times and interval beeps. Cleanse your face using our T-timer recommended duration and zones as shown above.Gently move the brush using a small circular motion.forehead20secondsnose/ chin20secondseach cheek10secondsclarisonic.com 1-888-525-2747

See Power Level to modify this setting after you’ve selected the cleansing timer setting.CHARGINGYour system kit includes a charging cradle designed to hold and charge the brush handle. Place the Clarisonic into the charging cradle with the brush facing the raised wave of the cradle (the brush head is on the same side as the power cord). The green light on the back of the brush is the charge indicator. When flashing green the Clarisonic is charging; a constant green light indicates that your Clarisonic is fully charged. The Clarisonic includes nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries and cannot be over-charged. You can leave the Clarisonic brush handle in the charging cradle or by the sink, tub or shower, as long as you charge it after every 30 minutes of use. We recommend that you leave your Clarisonic in its charging cradle when not in use.When the battery is low, the Clarisonic will beep 5 times while the yellow and green lights flash 5 times. Place your Clarisonic in its charging cradle overnight to recharge it. A full charge allows 30 minutes of use. If it is used for more than 30 minutes without being charged, the brush handle will beep immediately after use to alert you to place it in the cradle for charging. CARING FOR YOUR CLARISONICTo keep your Clarisonic in optimum condition, care for it as follows. Do not use abrasive cleaners or chemicals to clean any part of the Clarisonic. Do not put any part of the Clarisonic in a dishwasher.BRUSH HANDLEOnce a week wash the handle using warm soapy water to remove any residue buildup. The handle is sealed and fully waterproof. Never attempt to open the brush handle for any reason. CHARGING CRADLEIMPORTANT: Unplug the charging cradle before you clean it. After unplugging the cradle, wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. Do not immerse the charging cradle in water. BRUSH HEADSWe recommend that the Clarisonic brush heads be replaced every 90 days as the bristles become fatigued and less effective over time. Once a week, remove the brush head from the handle and rinse with warm soapy water to remove any residue.To remove the brush head, 1 simply grip the brush head firmly, then push and twist it counter-clockwise. Then 2 pull the head away from the handle.To mount the brush head, 3 align the 3 notches with the 3 pins, then 4 push down and twist the head clockwise until it 5 snaps into place. Be sure you hear a tight snap to ensure the brush head is in place.Purchase replacement brush heads from your skin care professional, physician, medi-spa or Clarisonic retailer. Or call 1- 888-525-2747 or visit clarisonic.com.
1011TROUBLESHOOTINGMy Clarisonic won’t turn on. In order for the Clarisonic to turn on, the battery needs to be sufficiently charged. Prior to first use, charge the handle for 24 hours. The warning beeps and lights indicate that the device needs to be placed in the charging cradle overnight. First check to be sure the handle is properly placed in the cradle (brush head facing the power cord). After every 30 minutes of use, charge the handle overnight. Also, check that your charging cradle is not plugged into an outlet that is linked to a wall switch. If the problem persists, contact Customer Service. The inner brush head is not moving, but sound is coming from the handle. Remove the brush head and twist it back into place, assuring that the brush head is properly seated using its 3 attachment pins as indicated in the Caring for Your Clarisonic section. This should reactivate the motion of the inner bristles. If the problem persists, contact Customer Service. The brush beeps during use. The beeps are your guide to a more even and thorough cleansing of the face. For more on this, please see page 8 of this booklet. The brush head won’t come off. Grip the brush head firmly, push and twist it counter-clock-wise. Then pull the head away from the handle. The brush head appears stained. With daily maintenance and weekly washing, the brush head should not stain. Using the Clarisonic to remove makeup may cause discoloration, which will not adversely affect performance. Never use the Clarisonic to remove eye makeup. The brush feels harsh on my skin. Always use the Clarisonic on wet skin. Use enough cleanser to generously cover your face. Try using the brush at the lower power level. To set at low power, hold the power button for at least 3 seconds when turning it on. At the low power level, you’ll hear 3 descending beeps and the yellow light is turned off. Also, try using the Sensitive or Delicate brush head, as they are softer on the skin and are designed for maximum comfort. 1-888-525-2747CLARISONIC CLEANSER Your Clarisonic system kit includes a 2 ounce sample of the Clarisonic cleanser, which is optimized for use with your Clarisonic.
