NOTE: You should avoid treating the same area multiple times in one session, as it will not improve 

effectiveness but increases the risk of skin irritation.

PREPARING FOR USE

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

•  Connect the power cord to the wall outlet.

CHECK YOUR SKIN TONE

•  To determine if your skin tone is suitable for use with the device, compare your skin in the 

intended treatment areas with the Skin Tone Chart (Fig 1) at the front of this manual.

•  If your skin matches either the light, medium or dark skin tones in the Skin Tone Chart (I-V), you 

can use this i-LIGHT device.

•  If your skin in the intended treatment area matches the darkest skin tone in the Skin Tone Chart, 

DO NOT use the device (Skin Tone VI).

•  This i-LIGHT has a built-in SKIN TONE TESTER on the treatment head that is designed to help 

prevent inadvertent flashing on skin that is too dark for treatment.
