1. Safety Instructions
1.1. Intended Use
All devices are exclusively intended for the use inside of buildings for the tanning of persons. Do not
operate the device within highly combustible areas or in damp rooms. The rooms must have good
ventilation. If the device is operated in a sun studio the hygiene of both the device and the area must
be closely controlled. Any other use is considered to be not in accordance with the terms of usage.
The manufacturer is not responsible for damage resulting from other forms of usage; the user alone
carries this risk. Following the manufacturer's operational, maintenance and repair terms and
conditions is also considered a part of the terms of usage. Maintenance, repair and similar work is
only to be carried out by the customer service of KLAFS or by their authorized representatives. The
device must only be operated by persons who are informed over its usage and the dangers involved.
The relevant accident prevention regulations and other generally recognized industrial health and
safety regulations must be observed. Damage resulting from arbitrary changes to the device are
excluded from the manufacturer's liability. This applies in particular to damage due to lamps or filter
disks not approved by KLAFS.
1.2. Product liability
The user is expressly informed that the device may only be used as intended. The user assumes all
liability if the device is not used as intended. Consequently the manufacturer will not accept any
liability in such cases.
1.3. Conduct in emergencies
Remove the power plug, and/or remove power from the device using the main power switch or fuse
panel and guard against unauthorized restoration of the power.
1.4. Explanation of the symbols
In these operating instructions, all passages in the text relating to your safety, as well as notices and
tips, are marked with the following symbols.
Pass all safety instructions on to other users.
Caution / Warning!
This symbol designates an immediate health risk and danger for the life of persons.
Non-observance of these notes and references will result in serious health-impairing effects,
up to the point of lethal injuries.
UV radiation
UV radiation can cause damage to eyes and skin. UV radiation sources must therefore
only be operated when appropriate measures have been taken to ensure personal safety.
Do not look directly into the radiation source and ensure that you are wearing the supplied
safety glasses to protect your eyes.
This symbol provides important information for the appropriate handling of the device.
Non-observance of these notes and references may lead to malfunctions at the device or in
the environment.
.This symbol stands for application tips and especially useful information. They serve to help you in
the optimal use of all functions of your device.
.In the text different diagrams are referred to. E.g. Fig. 5 item 2 is indicated in the text by
reference (5/2).
1.5. Position of device user

1. Safety Instructions
1.6. Prior to commissioning
The safety and the operating instructions must be read thoroughly before the installation,
commissioning and start-up of the device. The requirements of KLAFS and the Standards Body must be
followed.
1.7. Device commissioning
Prior to every startup it must be ensured that local safety regulations as well as all safety instructions are
adhered to.
1.8. Dangers
Warning!
Ultraviolet radiation from the sun or UVC devices can cause eye or skin damage, such as
skin ageing and possibly skin cancer. These biological effects depend on the kind and
quantity of the exposure to the sun and on the skin sensitivity of the individual person. The
skin can show signs of sunburn after repeated usage of the tanning device. Excessive
repeated ultraviolet radiation from sunlight or UVC devices can lead to premature ageing
of the skin and also to an increased risk of skin tumours. The ocular surface of the
unprotected eye can become inflamed and in some cases, excessive tanning can damage
the retina. Cataracts can occur following unprotected tanning. Special care should be
taken in cases of individual UVC sensitivity or when certain medications or cosmetics are
used at the same time.
Therefore it is imperative to observe the following safety instructions without
fail:
Caution!
High-intensity light, do not look directly into the source.
Close your eyes when sun bathing and always wear the safety glasses provided.
Remove make-up before using the tanning device.
Do not use suntan lotion.
Remove jewellery before using the tanning device.
Do not expose yourself to more than one tanning session and do not do any additional
sunbathing in natural sunlight on the same day.
A timetable with recommended exposure times and intervals is attached to each device.
The recommended exposure times apply only to the lamp configuration prescribed by the
manufacturer.
If you are receiving medical treatment or taking medication, in any case seek the advice of
the medical practitioner who is treating you. Certain medications or cosmetics can
increase sensitivity.
If any persistent swellings, sores or pigmented moles on your skin show signs of change,
immediately consult the medical practitioner who is treating you.
A minimum of 48 hours should elapse between the first two tanning sessions.
The device may be used only when being stretched out in horizontal position.
Do not sit or stand under the device while tanning.

Warning!
Use only after you have obtained medical advice for yourself.
Non-users, children in particular, must not be present when the device is in operation.
The UV device should not be used by persons:
dunder the age of 18
dwho tend to get freckles
dwith naturally red hair
dwith any atypical discoloured areas of the skin
dwho have more than 16 moles (2 mm or larger in diameter) on their bodies
dwho have atypical moles (atypical moles are asymmetrical moles with a diameter
greater than 5 mm that have varying pigmentation and irregular borders; if in doubt,
a medical practitioner should be consulted)
dwho suffer from sunburn
dwho do not tan at all in natural sunlight or cannot tan without getting sunburnt
dwho easily get sunburnt in natural sunlight
dwho have had a history of repeated, serious sunburn during their childhood
dwho are suffering are have suffered from skin cancer or have a predisposition to this
don whose first-degree relatives black skin cancer (melanoma) has occurred
dwho are undergoing medical treatment for complaints that are associated with
photosensitivity
dwho are receiving photosensitizing medication.
Notes:
dThe radiation exposures should not exceed the personal minimum erythema dose
(MED). This means the minimum UV dose that causes a perceptible reddening of the
skin. If erythema (reddening of the skin) occurs some hours after exposure, no further
exposures should take place. After a week, the exposures specified at the beginning
of the exposure plan can be resumed.
dIf any unexpected effects occur, such as itching within 48 hours of the first exposure,
consult a medical practitioner before any further exposures take place.

Note 1:
The recommended exposure time for the initial test radiation of untanned skin must comply
with a dose that does not exceed 100 J/m2, weighted in accordance with the action
spectrum for UV erythema or based on the result of a test on a limited surface area of the
skin. The second and subsequent exposures should last at least 10 minutes.
dThe recommended number of exposures within a year should not be exceeded.
Note 2:
As each UV radiation exposure increases the risk of skin cancer, there is no safe upper
limit for the annual dose. However, it is recommended that 25 kJ/m2not be exceeded,
weighted in accordance with the action spectrum for non-melanoma skin cancer and
based on the recommended radiation exposure programme.
dDo not use the device, if the timer is defective or if the filter is broken or has been
removed.
dReplace the replaceable UV lamp only with lamp types that are designated on the
device. Replace UV fluorescent lamps only with lamp types that are marked with an
equivalence code that is within the equivalence code range specified and explained
on the device.
