caution
If the wall socket used to power the appliance has poor connections, the plug of the appliance
becomes hot. Make sure you plug the appliance into a properly connected wall socket.
The appliance must be connected to a circuit that is protected with a 16A standard fuse or a
slow-blow automatic fuse.
If you have just been swimming or have just taken a shower, dry yourself thoroughly before you
use the appliance.
Always unplug the appliance after use.
Let the appliance cool down after use for approx. 15 minutes before you fold it back into
transport position and store it.
Make sure the vents in the lamp unit and in the base remain open during use. Keep your hair
away from the air inlet of the lamp unit.
The UV filter becomes very hot when you use the appliance. Do not touch it.
The appliance contains hinging parts, so be careful not to get your fingers stuck between these
parts.
Never use the appliance when a UV filter is damaged, broken or missing.
Never use the appliance when the control panel is defective.
Do not exceed the recommended tanning time and the maximum number of tanning hours
(see section ‘Tanning sessions: how often and how long?’).
Do not choose a tanning distance of less than 70cm.
Do not tan a particular part of your body more than once a day. Avoid excessive exposure to
natural sunlight on the same day.
Do not use the tanning appliance if you have a disease and/or use medication or cosmetics that
increase the sensitivity of your skin. Be extra careful if you are hypersensitive to UV light. Consult
your doctor in case of doubt.
Do not use the tanning appliance and consult your doctor if unexpected effects such as itching
occur within 48 hours after the first session.
Consult your doctor if persistent lumps or sores appear on the skin, or if there are changes in
pigmented moles.
Always wear the protective goggles provided with the appliance while you are tanning, to
protect your eyes against overexposure (see chapter ‘Tanning and your health’).
Remove creams, lipstick and other cosmetics well in advance of a tanning session.
Do not use any sunscreens or suntan accelerators.
Only move the appliance when it is in transport position.
general
The appliance is fitted with an automatic protection against overheating. If the appliance is
insufficiently cooled (e.g. because the vents are covered), the appliance switches off
automatically. Once you have removed the cause of overheating and the appliance has cooled
down, it switches on automatically again.
If your skin feels taut after the tanning session, you can apply a moisturising cream.
To acquire an even tan, lie straight below the lamp unit.
Colours fade under the influence of the sun. The same effect may occur when you use this
appliance.
Do not expect the appliance to yield better results than the natural sun.
