1
Different skin types react differently to sun and tanning times. Follow the skin type table and
the individual tanning program (see p. 56 ff.). Once you have reached your nal tanning result,
further tanning can only be achieved by considerably exceeding the recommended tanning
times. This has to be avoided at all costs!!
2
UV radiation from the sun or from UV apparatuses may cause damages to skin or eyes.
These biological effects depend upon the quality and quantity of the radiation as well as on
the skin and eye sensitivity of the individual customer.
3
Sunburn can be a reaction of the skin after excessive radiation. Excessively repeated
exposures to UV radiation from the sun or from UV apparatuses may lead to premature
ageing of the skin and increase the risk of getting skin cancer.
4
Unprotected eyes may become inflamed on their surface or in some cases, e.g. after a
cataract operation, the retina can be damaged after an excessive UV exposure. Cataracts
may develop after many repeated exposures.
5
Special care is necessary in cases of pronounced individual sensitivity to UV radiation and in
cases where certain medicines or cosmetics are applied.
6
It cannot be said in any case that the use of a sunbed reduces the risk of getting sunburn.
7
The apparatus must not be operated when the timer or the fi lter panes are defective.
