Using Your Sunbed
Before using your sunbed, please note the following:
• Your skin should be free of cosmetics, tanning oils, or other body
lotions prior to tanning except for those specifically made for use
with tanning devices. However, do not remove natural body oils by
bathing or showering immediately before tanning.
• Keep treated hair from contacting sunbed surfaces. Many hair prod-
ucts can damage the sunbed acrylic. Wear a shower cap or towel if
you use gels, mousses, sprays, or other hair products.
• Your sunbed is designed for individual use. Always wear the safety
goggles supplied with your sunbed or another approved pair of gog-
gles, as defined under 21 CFR 1040.20. Regular sunglasses do not
provide adequate protection from ultraviolet light.
Follow the guidelines for skin type and exposure times as shown in the
table below. Untanned persons should not tan on consecutive days
during their first week of tanning. Never tan more than once a day. Tan
-
ning normally appears after the first few sessions and maximizes after
approximately four weeks. Tan once or twice per week thereafter to
maintain appearance. Persons already having a base tan may begin at
advanced levels corresponding to the extent of their base tan.
Skin Type:
I Sensitive Skin (Burns easily and severely and does not tan.)
II Light Skin
(Burns easily and severely and tans minimally.)
III Normal Skin (Burns moderately and tans average.)
IV Dark Skin
(Burns minimally, tans easily and above average.)

Adjustment
Adjusting The Height
Locate the pull ring on the back of the upright stand tube (see 3 on the
illustration, previous page). Holding the handle directly above the ring,
pull the spring-loaded adjustment ring and lift or lower the canopy.
When the proper height is achieved, let the ring go and make sure the
pin engages a hole in the stand tube, otherwise the canopy may fall.
Tilt Adjustment
The canopy swivels on the stand in order to position it for the best tan-
ning coverage. At the top of the stand (see 4 on the illustration, previous
page), locate the hex bolt. Using a 3/4” wrench, turn the bolt counter-
clockwise to loosen it, allowing the canopy to swivel freely. Turn the
bolt clockwise to tighten it and hold the canopy steady.
