Tanning instructions
As a rule, an averagely tanning skin has achieved
a uniform tan after three to fi ve tanning sessions.
These sessions should take place every second day.
To preserve the suntan achieved, one or two tanning
sessions per week are normally suffi cient.
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
“AfterSun” line of body-care products after tanning.
Instructions for the user
Observe the following tanning instructions:
GENERAL
Any person that complies with the requirements
•
laid down in the chapter “Intended use” may use
the device.
The different skin types tolerate the sun and hence
•
tanning times to a different degree. Please observe
the specifi cations in the skin-type table (supplied
with the unit) 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
•
infl
ammation, and in certain cases, e.g. after
a cataract operation, excessive radiation can
damage the retina. After many repeated sessions,
a cataract may form.
No exposure to UV radiation if medicine is taken
•
that increases the sensitivity to ultraviolet radiation.
If in doubt, seek medical advice.
It cannot generally be assumed that the use of a
•
solarium reduces the risk of getting sunburn.
Seek medical advice if persistent swellings or sores
•
develop on the skin or if pigmented moles change
in appearance.
Only use radiation appliances of UV type 4 after
•
consulting a doctor.
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 48 hours to pass between
•
sessions.
After a tanning session in a studio, do not take
•
another sunbath out of doors on the same day.
