Cleaning Your i-Light Device
CAUTION: Before cleaning your i-Light device, make sure that the power switch is OFF and the
power cord is disconnected from the base unit.
• Regular cleaning helps to ensure optimal results and a long life for the i-Light device. The exterior
surface of the base unit and hand piece may be wiped clean with a slightly damp cloth.
• To clean the Flash Window, use only the lint-free cloth included with your i-Light device. Take care not
to scratch or chip the Flash Window. Scratches and chips can reduce the effectiveness of the unit.
• For stubborn stains, use a dampened cotton swab to apply a small amount of water to the Flash
Window and clean with the lint-free cloth provided.
• Use a small hand-held vacuum to remove dust and debris from the hand piece vents.
WARNING: If the Flash Window is cracked or broken, the unit must not be used. Never scratch
the filter glass or the metallic surface inside the Nose Cone.
CAUTION: The i-Light is a high voltage device. Never immerse in water. Never clean the unit or
any of its parts under the tap or in the dishwasher.
Cleaning your device
After treatment, you may experience slight redness or a warm sensation on your skin. This is normal and will
disappear quickly. To avoid irritation to your skin after a treatment, take the following precautions:
• Avoid sun exposure for 24 hours after a treatment. Protect the skin with SPF 30 for 2 weeks after each
treatment.
• Do not prolong sun exposure such as sunbathing, using a tanning bed, or self tan for at least 2 weeks
after the last treatment.
• After treatment, keep the area clean and dry and drink plenty of water to keep skin hydrated.
• Do not handle the treated area roughly.
• Do not take hot baths, showers, or use steam rooms and saunas for 24 hours after treatment.
• Do not swim for 24 hours after treatment.
• Do not take part in contact sports for 24 hours after treatment.
• Do not wear tight-fitting clothing over the treated area.
• Do not depilate (waxing, plucking, threading or creams) during the treatment – shaving is acceptable as
long as you avoid shaving 24 hours after each treatment.
• Do not use bleaching creams or perfumed products for 24 hours after treatment.
• Do not scratch or pick at the treated area.
