Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to Philips! To fully benet from the support that
Philips offers, register your product at www.philips.com/welcome.
The Philips EnergyLight is intended to make people feel more energetic and to provide mood relief
from the winter blues. If you suffer from severe mood swings or depression make sure to consult a
professional and do not use this device for self treatment.
The EnergyLight is suitable for both light exposures and normal lighting.
Light and health
The human body uses light cues, such as those provided by the sun, to time certain functions. Light
exposure can boost mood and energy. Light has direct alerting and energizing effects and can
improve our performance. Bright light therapy is also successfully used for mood relief, especially for
seasonal mood swings.
In countries with long winters, many people experience loss of energy and low spirits due to lack of
light.These symptoms are referred to as the winter blues.They typically start in the fall and may last
for several weeks. Exposure to bright light sources can help alleviate these symptoms and restore
the summer mood and summer energy level.
Many people are troubled by one or more symptoms of the winter blues. Many health experts
agree that the winter blues can be counteracted by exposure to bright light.‘Bright light’ means
daylight with a certain intensity. In winter, the light intensity is often much lower than in summer: on
a gloomy winter day the light intensity varies between 2,500 and 10,000 lux, whereas this may be as
much as 100,000 lux on a bright summer day. Moreover, in winter most people spend a lot of time
indoors, either at home or at work, where articial light often has an intensity of as little as 500 lux
and sometimes even less.Together with scientists and medical specialists in the eld of winter blues
treatment, Philips has developed this special lighting appliance.This appliance allows you to safely get
the amount of light you need to help ght winter blues. Taking light exposures is generally accepted
as one of the safest and most effective ways of ghting the winter blues.

Using the appliance
- It is advisable to start using the EnergyLight as soon as you feel the winter blues coming on or
when you feel like you need extra light.
- Preferably take your light exposures between 6 o’clock in the morning and 8 o’clock in the
evening. (Fig. 2)
- Visit www.lighttherapy.com for a free assessment and to customize a light exposure time
schedule just for you.
Duration and intensity
Duration of dailly exposure depends on the distance to the appliance and the intended use.The
longer the selected distance, the longer is the effective duration.
For helping winter blues the best results are expected for following combinations of duration and
intensity: 30 minutes at 10000 lux (6-8 in./15-20 cm), 60 minutes at 5000 lux (approx. 12in./cca 30
ENGLISH8
10_HF3318_EnergyLight.indd 8 6/28/10 9:45 AM

cm), 120 minutes at 2500 lux (approx. 20in./cca 50 cm). For simply boosting your energy, longer
distances at same exposure times may provide you with sufcient light.
Timing
Using the EnergyLight at any time of day directly affects your alertness.The best time to use it is in
the morning. Do not use the EnergyLight late in the evening. If you use within 2 hours of going to
bed, it could disrupt your sleep.
- If you nd it difcult to get up each day without an alarm clock or if you often sleep in, you need
morning light. Use the EnergyLight within the rst hour or two after waking up.
- If you nd it difcult to stay awake in the late evening and wake up too early in the morning, you
need evening light. Use the EnergyLight before you start to feel drowsy.
- If mornings or evenings do not seem to be the problem, but you feel generally tired during the
day, then the time at which you use the EnergyLight is not as important.You can use the
EnergyLight in the morning or around midday. For example, when you wake up in the morning,
use it for 15 to 30 minutes and then again at midday or in the evening for approximately the
same amount of time. Place the EnergyLight further away from you during the evening session.
Do not use the EnergyLight within two hours of your desired bedtime or you may not be able
to fall asleep.
1 Place the appliance on a level surface such as a counter, table or desk.
2 Put the plug in the electrical outlet.
3 To switch on the appliance, turn the on/off dial clockwise to the light intensity you prefer
Light exposure time indicator
The light exposure time indicator shows how long you have been using the appliance.
- When you switch on the appliance, the LEDs go on in quick succession to show how the LED
sequence is built up. Then the rst LED lights up at half intensity during the rst 15
minutes (Fig. 3).
- At the end of the rst 15 minutes, the rst LED is on at full intensity and the second LED goes
on at half intensity.
- After 2 hours, all 8 LEDs light up at full intensity until you switch off the appliance.
Note:The LEDs only show the light exposure time that has passed.You do not have to take any action
when the LEDs go on.

- You do not have to take the whole light exposure without interruption. If it suits your schedule
better, you can interrupt your light exposure and continue later.

Do not look into the light continuously.You can simply engage in other activities such as reading,
writing, embroidering or handicraft while taking a light exposure and look into the light every now
and then.
6 Repeat the light exposures until you feel better.
Generally, improvements occur within 1 week.
You may repeat the light exposure as often as you like during the dark period of the year.Take a

Question Answer
How often should I
use the EnergyLight? We recommend that you start taking daily light exposures for 5 to 7 days in a row, preferably in the morning. Most people start to feel more
energetic within 5 days. If you do not notice any improvement within
that time, continue using the EnergyLight for another 7 to 14 days and
make the exposures longer. Do not give up too soon, since it may take
up to 2 weeks before you notice any signicant improvement. However,
if using the EnergyLight causes you to become too active, we advise you
to reduce the light exposure.
Can I use the
EnergyLight if I am on
medication?
If you are on prescribed medication, we advise you to consult your
doctor rst before you use the EnergyLight or use any other form of
light. Certain medicines cannot be used in combination with light
exposure. Anti-depressants combined with light exposure may result in
eye damage.
Can I use the
EnergyLight if I have
eye problems?
If you have eye problems, you should consult your doctor or
ophthalmologist before you use the EnergyLight or undergo any other
form of light exposure.There are certain eye and eye-related conditions
that may respond unfavorably to light.
Can I use the
EnergyLight if I have a
skin allergy?
If you are allergic to light or have a diagnosed chronic skin disease, it is
safest to consult your doctor before you use the EnergyLight or undergo
any other form of light.
Can I use the
EnergyLight during
pregnancy?
Yes, there are no known side effects from using the EnergyLight during
pregnancy.

Is it harmful to sit in
front of a switched-on
EnergyLight for a
prolonged period of
time?
No, using the EnergyLight longer than the recommended time is not
harmful. However, do not use the light after 8 p.m.
Do I have to wear any
sunscreen lotion? No, the EnergyLight is not a tanning device. It has a special screen that lters out all UV rays; it is therefore safe for your skin and does not give
you a tan. If you use the EnergyLight in accordance with the instructions
in the user manual, you do not have to worry about tanning or other

La lumière énergie Philips a été conçue pour hausser le niveau d’énergie et combattre la dépression
saisonnière. Si vous souffrez d’importants changements d’humeur ou de dépression, consultez un
professionnel de la santé; n’utilisez pas cet appareil pour tenter de vous soigner. EnergyLight convient
aussi bien aux bains de lumière qu’à l’éclairage normal.
Lumière et santé
Le métabolisme humain répond à la lumière, notamment à celle du soleil. L’exposition à la lumière
peut améliorer le moral et le niveau d’énergie. La lumière a un effet direct sur l’éveil et l’énergie et
peut hausser notre rendement. La luminothérapie est utilisée avec succès pour améliorer l’humeur,
notamment en cas de dépression saisonnière.
Dans les pays où l’hiver est long, de nombreuses personnes voient leur moral et leur niveau
d’énergie affectés par le manque de lumière. Il s’agit de la dépression saisonnière. Elle commence
généralement à l’automne et peut durer plusieurs semaines. L’exposition à des sources de lumière
vive peut contribuer à soulager ces symptômes et à restaurer l’humeur et l’énergie de l’été.
Beaucoup de personnes présentent au moins l’un de ces symptômes. De nombreux professionnels
de la santé s’accordent sur les bienfaits de l’exposition à la luminosité pour le traitement du blues
hivernal. Par luminosité, ils entendent la lumière du jour d’une certaine intensité. En hiver, l’intensité
lumineuse est souvent bien plus faible qu’en été : par une journée d’hiver grise, l’intensité lumineuse
peut aller de 2 500 à 10 000 lux, alors que cette valeur peut atteindre
100 000 lux par une belle journée d’été. De plus, en hiver, la plupart des gens passent une grande
partie de la journée à l’intérieur, que ce soit à la maison ou au travail, lieux où l’intensité de la
lumière articielle ne dépasse pas les 500 lux. En collaboration avec des scientiques et des
spécialistes du traitement du blues hivernal, Philips a développé ce dispositif d’éclairage spécial. Cet
appareil vous procure en toute sécurité la quantité de lumière dont vous avez besoin pour vous
aider à combattre le blues hivernal. Les bains de lumière sont reconnus comme une des méthodes
les plus sûres et efcaces de lutter contre le blues hivernal.
