Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.This
product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING  Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in a
risk of electric shock.
Ifrepairorreplacementofthecordorplugisnecessary,donotconnectthegreengroundingwire
toeitheratbladeterminal.Thewirewithinsulationhavingagreenoutersurfacewithorwithout
yellow stripes is the grounding wire and must be connected to the grounding pin.
Check with a qualied electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug provided. If the plug will not t the outlet, have the
proper outlet installed by a qualied electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt ac circuit and has a grounding plug that looks
like the plug illustrated below. Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet having
the same conguration as the plug. No adapter shall be used with this product.

Important Electrical Information
Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle
that will accept the plug on the product. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. A SJT type cord is required. Cord shall be 14 AWG minimum for
general indoor use.

6. Preparation of the spray area
•
Remove all objects from the spray area if possible, to avoid contamination from
overspray.
•
Work in a room with a smooth, easy-to-clean surface.
The use of a spray booth/spray tent and tanning extraction fan is recommended.
7. General preparations before the application of spray
tanning solution
iTest the compatibility of the spray tanning solution on a small patch of skin
approx. 24 hours before the actual application of the spray tanning solution.
Stop application if skin irritation occurs.
•
Approx. 24-48 hours prior to treatment remove body hair by shaving or waxing.
•
Do not apply any perfume, deodorant or make-up. These products can negatively
inuence the tanning result.
•
On the day of the treatment wear dark, loose-tting clothing, in order to prevent
discoloration of clothing by the spray tanning solution.
•
Remove all jewelry, in order to avoid discoloration by the spray tanning solution.
8. Preparation of the skin
i
Correct preparation of the skin is key to an even and long lasting tanning result.
Please note the following instructions:
•
Remove all dead skin cells by means of exfoliation before applying the spray tanning
solution.
•
Make sure that the moisture content of the skin is as uniform as possible.
Use barrier cream for dry areas (e.g. elbows and knees). Let the moisturizer dry before
commencing the treatment.
•
Apply a little balm to lips, nails, palms of the hands, eyebrows and the hairline for
protection.

compliance with the instructions provided
here.
•
Press the On/O switch at the gun handle
(Fig. 7, 1).
•
Turn the material control (Fig. 7, 2), in
order to adjust the desired delivery rate.
lower material volume (-):
 turn anti-clockwise
higher material volume (+):
 turn clockwise
Your goal is a 4 inch wide spray
pattern spraying 4 inches away.
•
Turn the air volume control (Fig. 7, 3), in
order to optimize the atomization and
reduce overspray.
less air (-):  turn anti-clockwise
more air (+):  turn clockwise
•
Turn the air cap (Fig. 8, 1) with the union
nut (2) slightly unscrewed, to adjust the

11. Tips on using the spray tanning system
Before commencing application, check that all necessary protective
measures (nasal plugs, hair covering) have been taken.
iPractice on a large piece of newspaper or cotton towel rst in order to nd the
optimal settings for the spray tanning solution used.
•
If a tanning extraction fan is available,
place in the near vicinity of spraying and
switch on.
•
Avoid interruptions during the spray
movement. Maintain a constant pace.
•
The spray movement should come
from the arm, not just from the wrist.
This ensures that a uniform distance is
maintained between the spray gun and
the body during the spray operation.
Fig. 10 a: CORRECT even distance
Fig. 10 b: INCORRECT uneven distance
will result in uneven tanning
•
Move the spray gun at an even speed.
•
When tanning is complete, switch o
turbine and any tanning extraction fan (if
used) after fumes/mist have cleared.
12. After application of the spray tanning solution
i
The full tanning eect develops
during the rst 24 hours after
the treatment.
•
Allow the spray tanning solution to dry for
5-10 minutes before getting dressed again.
iYou can also use the air from the
air hose to accelerate the drying
process of the spray tanning
solution. To do this, simply
remove the spray attachment
from the handle and switch the
system on.
•
Do not shower or bathe in the first 6-8 hours after application, as this will affect the
tanning result. This will vary depending on the tanning solution used.
•
Prolonged hot baths and showers should be avoided, in order to maintain the tanning
effect for as long as possible. Daily moisturizing of the skin is also recommended.
