WARNING - RISK OF INJURY!
UV appliances may not be used by:
► People who suffer from skin cancer or are predisposed to it,
► People, who are taking light-sensitivity enhancing drugs,
► People under 18 years of age,
► People with a tendency towards freckles,
► People with a naturally red hair colour,

moles with a diameter of more than 5 mm and different pigmenta-
tion plus irregular border areas; if in doubt, consult your doctor),
► People who are suffering from sunburn,
► People who do not tan in the sun without skin burns,
► People who quickly suffer from skin burns in direct sunlight,
► People who have frequently suffered from a severe sunburn
during their childhood,
► People who suffer from skin cancer or are suffering from this
disease or are susceptible to skin cancer,

■ The irradiation should not exceed the minimal erythema dose (MED).
If erythema (skin redness) occurs several hours after irradiation there
should be no further applications made. In this case, the next irradiation
should not take place before one week after the date of the skin redness.
■ If unexpected side effects such as itching occur within 48 hours after
the first application of the UV appliance, you should consult a doctor
before receiving further UV irradiation.
■ Recommended exposure timetable:
–Do not carry out more than 5 treatments per day. This could lead to
skin irritation.
–Do not exceed the recommended number of 400 treatments per year.
■ The appliance may not be used if the timer is not working properly.
■ Use only lamps of the specified type. The use of a UV lamp from another
manu-facturer or of a different type will lead to the revocation of the
warranty.
■ UV radiation from the sun or from UV appliances can cause both skin
and eye damage, which may be irreversible. These biological effects
depend on the quality and quantity of the radiation and on the skin
and eye sensitivity of the individual person.
■ The skin can suffer from sunburn after excessive exposure to radiation.
Too frequent UV radiation from the sun or UV appliances can lead to
premature skin aging and cause an increased risk of skin cancer. This
risk increases with increasingly cumulative UV exposures. UV radiation
at a young age increases the subsequent risk of skin cancer.
■ UV radiation can lead to injuries to the eyes and skin, such as prema-
ture skin aging and even skin cancer. Read these operating instructions
carefully. Some medications or cosmetics increase the sensitivity to UV
radiation.
■ The unprotected eye can suffer superficial inflammation and, in some
cases, excessive exposure may cause damage to the retina. Frequently
repeated exposures can lead to cataracts.

■ In the event of individually identified sensitivity or allergic reactions to
UV radiation, you should first seek medical advice before beginning the
irradiation.
■ Certain ailments or the side effects of certain drugs may be exacer-
bated by UV irradiation. If in doubt, consult your doctor.
■ There should be a period of at least 48 hours between the first two ex-
posures.
■ Avoid sunbathing and use of the appliance on the same day. This could
lead to skin irritation.
■ Pay heed to the instructions on the irradiation time, time intervals for the ir-
radiation and the distance to be from the lamp. If you do not, it could lead
to skin irritation.
■ Consult your doctor if persistent tumours or ulcers form, or changes in
moles come about or sores develop.
■ Protect sensitive skin areas, such as scars, tattoos and the genitals, from
irradiation.
■ Do not carry out more than 5 treatments per day. This could lead to
skin irritation.
■ Do not exceed the recommended number of 400 treatments per year.
■ Remove cosmetics and sun care products before using the appliance.
If you do not, it could lead to skin irritation.
NOTICE
► If in any doubt, consult your doctor about the possible applica-
tions before using the appliance.
