CHECK YOUR SKIN TONE
•
Consult the skin and hair chart at the front of this manual to ensure your skin is in the suitable range
and your hair colour is susceptible to treatment with i-LIGHT®.
• Place the skin of your intended treatment area onto the skin sensor – ensure the skin is touching the
sensor. (Fig. 4)
• If your skin is suitable, you will hear a ‘beep’ and the i-LIGHT® will switch on.
• If your skin is unsuitable, you will hear a ‘buzz’ and the i-LIGHT® will remain switched off.
,
NOTE: You must use the skin sensor on each body part you wish to treat.
,
PREPARE YOUR SKIN FOR TREATMENT
•
Ensure the area to be treated is clean and free from oils, deodorants, perfume, make up, lotions and
creams. Shave the hair from the area to be treated, and ensure the skin is clean and dry.
• For facial use, you may prefer to trim the hair. If trimming; the hair must be trimmed to less than
0.5mm.
• Never use wax, epilation, tweezers or other methods that remove the hair from the root as IPL is not
effective if the hair has been pulled out.

PREPARE THE i-LIGHT® FOR USE
•
Unwrap the hand piece cord from the i-LIGHT® base and rest the hand piece back on the base unit.
• Ensure the power switch on the base unit is OFF.
• Connect the power cord to the i-LIGHT® base unit at the power inlet.
• Connect the power cord to the wall outlet. Turn the power switch ON. (fig. 5)
,
SELECTING THE ENERGY LEVEL
•
The i-LIGHT® is equipped with 5 energy levels. Level 1 is the lowest setting and level 5 is the highest
setting.
,
TIP: For the most effective results, always use the highest energy level that does not cause discomfort
on the skin.
• To determine the energy level being used, observe the number of lights illuminated on the Energy
Level Display (fig. 6).
• Your i-LIGHT® will automatically be set to Energy Level 1 each time the device is powered ON. To
change the level, press the Energy Level Selection Button.
,
TEST THE i-LIGHT® ON YOUR SKIN
,
Before your first full treatment, test the i-LIGHT® on a small patch of skin and wait 24 hours to
ensure there are no adverse reactions.
•
Start at energy level 1.
1 Place the i-LIGHT® hand piece against your skin so the Flash Window is flush with the skin surface.
2 Ensure the Skin Contact Sensors are fully engaged and the Bulb Status Indicator Display is illuminated
green (Fig. 7).
