no tanning effect may be obtained.
-Store these Operating Instructions in a place that allows for easy access at any time.
5.1 Operating modes
The three different operating modes are explained below:
STANDBY MODE
The tanning device is in an idle state, i.e. it is connected to the mains but is currently not being
used. The tubes and the tanning lamps are switched off. From the standby mode you can
access the service menu.

18
TANNING MODE
The tubes and the tanning lamps are switched on and a tanning session is in progress. While the
tanning device is in tanning mode, the settings for the ongoing tanning session can be
changed via the interior control panel.
FAN RUN-ON
After the tanning session, the fan runs on for 4 minutes in order to cool down the device.
6. Tanning instructions
Tanning normally begins after one to two exposures and maximizes after one to four (1-4) weeks
of exposure following the recommended schedule for your skin type.
NO SUNSCREEN WITH PROTECTION FACTOR
Sunscreens with sun protection factors are unsuitable for use in a tanning salon. For tanning, the
skin should have been thoroughly cleaned and be dry. For optimum skin care, we recommend
using our line of body care products after tanning.
6.1 Instructions for the user
Observe the following tanning instructions.
GENERAL
-Only the individuals described in the chapter 2.4 Indications for use may use the tanning
device.
-The different skin types tolerate the sun and hence tanning times to a different degree.
Please observe the specifications in the skin-type table (supplied with the tanning device)
and the tanning times. After having reached the ultimate tan, further tanning can only be
achieved by substantially exceeding the allowed tanning times. This must absolutely be
avoided.
-The UV radiation of the sun or of UV appliances can cause damage to the skin or to the
eyes. These biological effects depend on the type and amount of radiation as well as on
the individual sensitivity of the skin.
-After excessive exposure to radiation, the skin may exhibit sunburn. Excessively repeated
exposure to UV radiation of sunlight or UV appliances can result in premature ageing of the
skin and in a higher risk of skin cancer.
-The unprotected eye can suffer from surface inflammation and in certain cases, e.g. after a
cataract operation, excessive radiation can damage the retina. After many repeated
sessions a cataract might form.
-Do not expose yourself to UV radiation if you take medicine that increase the sensitivity to
ultraviolet radiation. When in doubt, seek medical advice.
-It cannot generally be assumed that the use of a tanning device reduces the risk of getting
a sunburn.

19
-Seek medical advice if persistent swellings or skin sores develop or pigmented moles
change in appearance.
6.1.1 Application tips
When describing the operation, the tanning device is often shown with the canopy open.
During tanning the canopy must always be closed.
Proper operation is not possible with the canopy open.
–Lie down and place your head on the headrest or as indicated by the ergonomic base panel
to maintain the proper distance between skin and lamps.
Preparation time
Before the UV lamps turn on, you have a few minutes to prepare yourself. During the
preparation time you can switch on the UV lamps at any time by pressing the START button.
*Remove your clothes and all jewelry.
*Remove make-up and other cosmetics.

*Press the START button.
FOR EACH TANNING SESSION
-Always wear the supplied protective goggles.
-Remove cosmetics before the session and do not use any sunscreen.
-Allow for at least 24 hours to pass between sessions.
-After a tanning session in a studio, do not take another sunbath out of doors on the same
day.
6.1.2 How to stop
The tanning session ends automatically after the preset time has run down.
The internal body cooling fan continues to run for approx. four (4) minutes to
sufficiently cool the device.

Tanning Device:
The primary technical components of a tanning device are an artificial source of UV radiation,
a variety of filters and reflectors as well as a mechanical structure with a defined active surface.
Different tanning results can be achieved in varying strength tanning devices
This is due to the different strength UV lamps and the different UV-A and UVB proportions of the
UV radiation. The UV-A proportion primarily generates a superficial tan, which appears rapidly
and is intensive but also fades more rapidly, the UV-B radiation is primarily responsible for more
long-term tanning results. The disadvantage of the UV-B radiation is that the tan does not
become visible until one or two days after visiting the tanning salon. Therefore, the appropriate
tanning device is to be selected depending on the desired tanning goal.
The tanning devices described here primarily emit UV-A radiation.
REPLACE ONLY WITH ORIGINAL LAMPS OR FDA APPROVED EQUIVALENT
