Question
Answer
How often do I
have to use the
goLITE BLU?
Use the goLITE BLU every day at the right time to
achieve the result you want. For more information
on the duration of a session, read chapter ‘Using the
goLITE BLU’. Except when you try to adjust your
sleep time, we advise you to use the goLITE BLU at
the same time every day. It is usually sufficient to use
it 20 to 30 minutes a day. It is absolutely safe to use
it longer, if you want to.
When do I
start to notice
improvement
from using the
goLITE BLU?
You may start to feel the energizing effect any time
between first use and 1 to 2 weeks of daily use.
Is it harmful to
sit in front of a
switched-on
goLITE BLU for
a long time?
No, the goLITE BLU is absolutely safe, also when you
use it throughout the day. However, in general avoid
using the light in the last 4 hours before you go to
bed, as the energizing effect of the light may interfere
with your sleep. Only 'morning persons' who want
to get more out of their evening can use it in the
evening, see chapter "Using the goLITE BLU", section
"Sleeping patterns".
Can the lamp
of the goLITE
BLU be
replaced?
No, the goLITE BLU has a durable LED lamp that
lasts many years.
Can I replace
the
rechargeable
battery?
No, the battery is not replaceable. If the battery
capacity decreases, you can continue to use the
appliance on electrical power.
