EngliSH - 7 The appliance is not to be used by people who get sunburnt without tanning when exposed to the sun, by persons who suffer from sunburn, by children, or by persons who suffer (or have previously suffered) from skin cancer or who are predisposed to skin cancer. 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 tanning to protect your eyes against overexposure (also see section `UV and your health'). Remove creams, lipstick and other cosmetics well in advance of a tanning session. Do not use any sunscreens or suntan accelerators. If your skin feels taut after the tanning session, you can apply a moisturising cream. Colours may 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 natural sunlight. electromagnetic fields (eMF) This Philips appliance complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF). If handled properly and according to the instructions in this user manual, the appliance is safe to use based on scientific evidence available today. tanning and your health the sun The sun supplies various types of energy. Visible light enables us to see, ultraviolet (UV) light gives us a tan and the infrared (IR) light in sunrays provides the heat in which we like to bask. Half-body tanner With this half-body tanner, you can suntan comfortably at home. A timer ensures that each session does not last longer than 60 minutes. Just as with natural sunlight, overexposure must be avoided (see section `UV and your health'). uv and your health Just as with natural sunlight, the tanning process takes some time. The first effect only becomes visible after a few sessions (see section `Tanning sessions: how often and how long?'). Overexposure to ultraviolet light (natural sunlight or artificial light from your tanning appliance) can cause sunburn. Besides many other factors, such as overexposure to natural sunlight, incorrect and excessive use of a tanning appliance may increase the risk of skin and eye problems. The degree to which these effects occur is determined by the nature, intensity and duration of the exposure on the one hand and the sensitivity of the person involved on the other hand. The more the skin and the eyes are exposed to UV light, the higher the risk of keratitis, conjunctivitis, damage to the retina, cataracts, premature skin ageing and the development of skin tumours will be. Some medications and cosmetics increase the sensitivity of the skin. It is therefore highly important: - that you follow the instructions in chapter `Important' and section `Tanning sessions: how often and how long?'; - that you do not exceed the maximum number of tanning hours per year (see section `Tanning sessions: how often and how long?'); - that you always wear the goggles provided while tanning; - that the tanning distance (distance between the UV filter and your body) is at least 65cm. tanning sessions: how often and how long? Do not take more than one tanning session per day, over a period of five to ten days. Take a break of at least 48 hours between the first and the second session. 8 - EngliSH After this 5 to 10-day course, we advise you to stop tanning for a while. Approximately one month after a course, your skin will have lost much of its tan. You can then start a new course. If you want to keep your tan, do not stop tanning after the course, but continue with one or two tanning sessions a week. Whether you choose to stop tanning for a while or whether you continue tanning on a lower frequency, always keep in mind that you must not exceed the maximum number of tanning hours. For this appliance, the maximum is 20 tanning hours (=1200 minutes) a year. Example Suppose you take a 10-day tanning course, with an 8-minute session on the first day and a 20minute session on the nine following days. The entire course then lasts (1 x 8 minutes) + (9 x 20 minutes) = 188 minutes. In one year you can take 6 of these courses, as 6 x 188 minutes = 1128 minutes. - Of course, the maximum number of tanning hours applies to each separate part or side of the body that is tanned (e.g. the back and front of the body). As the table shows, the first session of a tanning course must always last 8 minutes, irrespective of the sensitivity of the skin.

If you think that the sessions are too long for you (e.g. because your skin feels taut and tender after the session), we advise you to reduce the length of the sessions by e.g. 5 minutes. For a beautiful, even tan, turn your face and body to the left and right from time to time. This ensures that the sides of your face and body are equally exposed. If your skin feels slightly taut after tanning, you can apply a moisturising cream. using the appliance 1 Placetheapplianceonasolid,flatandstablesurface. Fullyunwindthemainscord.
