Notice the following tanning rules for proper and safe use of your tanning device:
•
The exposure time for first session must not be shorter than 1 minute.
•
Follow the recommendations concerning exposure duration and exposure intervals
•
Protect your eyes from visible and infrared radiation, take adequate precautions ! Always
use the provided sunglasses!
•
Do not sunbath and use the machine on the same day.
•
This device is intended to be used by one person at a time!
•
Lie on the sunlamp bed and lower the top section to its internally regulated stop point to
attain this position. Any other position may result in overexposure.
•
Always use the protective sunglasses provided.
•
Remove cosmetics well in advance of exposure and do not apply any sunscreens.
•
Do not undergo exposure when taking medicines or using cosmetics, which increase
sensitivity to ultraviolet radiation. If in doubt, take medical advice.
•
Follow the recommendations concerning exposure duration and exposure intervals.
•
Seek medical advice if persistent lumps, sores or pigmented moles develop on the skin.
•
Ultraviolet radiation from the sun or UV-machines can cause injury to skin or eyes. These
biological effects depend upon the quality and the quantity of the radiation as well as the
skin sensitivity of the individual.
•
The skin may develop sunburn after an excessive exposure. Excessively repeated exposure to
ultraviolet radiation from the sun or the machine may lead to premature ageing of the skin
as well as increased risk of development of skin tumours.
•
The unprotected eye may develop surface inflammation, and in some cases, damage may
occur to the retina after excessive exposure. Cataracts may develop after many repeated
exposures. Therefore:
always use the protective sunglasses provided
