5 Enjoying the light
Position yourself as close as possible to the light, at a distance of between 20 and 60 cm. You can
continue to go about your day-to-day activities during application, including reading, writing, making
telephone calls, etc.
• Keep looking directly into the light for a short period of time as it is absorbed and shows an effect via
the eyes/retina.
• Use the brightlight as often as you like. However, the treatment is at its most effective if you carry out
the light therapy according to the prescribed time period of at least 7 successive days.
• The most effective time of day for the treatment is between 6am and 8pm and we recommend that it
is used for 2 hours per day.
• Do not look directly into the light for the entire application period as this may cause over-stimulation
of the retina.
• Start with a brief application period and gradually increase the time over the course of a week.
Note:
You may experience pain in the eyes and head after the first few applications. This pain should disappear
in further sessions as the nervous system becomes accustomed to the new stimuli.
6 Things to consider
We recommend a distance of between 20 and 60 cm from the face to the light during application.
The duration of the application depends on the distance:
Distance
Up to 20 cm
Up to 40 cm
Up to 60 cm
In principle,
the closer you are to the light source, the shorter the application time.
7 Enjoying the light over longer periods
Repeat application on at least seven consecutive days during darker periods of the year, or for longer
depending on your individual needs. Application should take place during the mornings where possible.
8 Switching off the light
 Press the on/off button. The LEDs switch off. Unplug the mains part from the mains socket.
Important!
The light remains hot after use. Allow the light to cool down sufficiently before putting it away and/or
packing it away.
9 Mood light with change of colour
In addition to the normal daylight, the brightlight TL 100 also features a moodlight with change of colour.
 Press and hold the on/off button for 2 seconds. The moodlight with change of colour will switch on.
As with the normal daylight, the moodlight also features a timer and brightness adjustment. To switch
off the moodlight with change of colour, press and hold the on/off button again for 2 seconds.
 If you wish to have a coloured light permanently displayed while the colour-change operation is in pro-
gress, briefly press the on/off button. Press the on/off button again to switch off the permanent coloured
light.
