a Keep the flash button pressed. The appliance releases one flash after
another as long as the safety ring is in full contact with the skin.
Immediately after the appliance has flashed, slide the appliance to the
next area. Make sure the safety ring is fully pressed onto the skin.
This ‘Slide & Flash mode’ is especially convenient for treatment of
larger areas like the legs.
b Let go of the flash button after each flash. For the next flash, place the
appliance on the area right next to the previously flashed area. Make
sure the safety ring is fully pressed onto the skin.
This ‘Step & Flash mode’ guarantees a precise treatment of e.g. the
knees or ankles.
Note: After a few seconds, the appliance is ready to flash again, so make
sure that you move it to the next area immediately after it has flashed.
Do not treat exactly the same area multiple times during one
session. This does not improve the effectiveness of the
treatment, but increases the risk of skin reaction.
Note: The visible light produced by the appliance is the reflection of the
flash in the skin and is harmless to your eyes. It is not necessary to wear
goggles during use.

To avoid untreated areas, always make sure there is some overlap with
the previously treated area when you place the appliance on the
skin.The effective light only comes out of the light exit window with
integrated UV filter. Make sure the flashes are produced close to each
other. Ask somebody else to help you with the treatment if you want to
treat your back to ensure that the treated areas overlap.

Switch off the appliance after you have finished the treatment.

Check the body attachment and light exit window for hairs and dirt and
clean the appliance after use. See chapter ‘Cleaning and maintenance’.
