Philips HF3419 Bedienungsanleitung Seite 11

Traveling west
Since most people's body clocks adjust more easily to later time zones, you only have to use the
Philips EnergyUp for one day before you travel across four time zones. Add an additional preparation
day for each three additional time zones. You do not have to use the Philips EnergyUp for more than
three days, even on longer westbound trips. Use the appliance for 30–40 minutes late in the evening.
Start two or three days before you leave. Use the appliance two hours later the following nights.
When you arrive at your destination, try to stay awake until bedtime and avoid bright evening light
(wear sunglasses) for the first few days. Before you travel home, avoid any bright afternoon and
evening light. Use the Philips EnergyUp in the morning for a few days.
Light intensity
Use the Philips EnergyUp in addition to the normal room lighting. The Philips EnergyUp is more
comfortable to use in a well-lit room. Adjust the brightness to a comfortable level. Allow a few
minutes for your eyes to get used to the bright light. If the highest setting is too bright for you, start
using the appliance at a lower setting. Increase the light intensity if you feel no effect after a week.
How to use the appliance
1 Insert the small plug in the socket on the back of the appliance (Fig. 2).
2 Fold out the stand. To ensure the light reaches your eyes, this appliance has a stand that can be
set to a variable angle.
-
If you are sitting higher or standing and the top edge of the appliance is below eye level, place
the appliance in a tilted position so that its light points further upwards and reaches your eyes
(Fig. 3).
-
If you are sitting at a table or desk and the top edge of the appliance is above eye level, you can
place the appliance in a more upright position (Fig. 4).
-
You can also use the stand to hang the appliance on the wall (Fig. 5).
Note: To hang the appliance on a wall, drill two holes 100-120mm apart and insert two hooks with
a diameter of 4mm (Fig. 6).
3 Insert the adapter in a wall socket (Fig. 7).
4 Place the appliance at arm's length (at approximately 50-75cm from your eyes) within your field of
vision. The light must bathe your face (Fig. 8).
-
You can read, eat, work at the computer, watch TV or exercise while you use the appliance.
-
For the best results, place the appliance at the same level as your midriff (stomach area), e.g.
place it on the table at which you are sitting.
-
Make sure that the surroundings of the appliance are well-lit for more visual comfort.
Note: Do not stare into the light of the appliance. It is sufficient that the bright light reaches your
eyes indirectly.
5 Press the on/off button briefly to switch on the appliance (Fig. 9).
-
The first time you switch on the appliance, the light comes on at the default intensity setting
(setting 4) of 6 intensity settings.
-
The next time you switch on the appliance, the light comes on at the last used intensity setting.
6 You can choose six intensity settings.
-
To choose a lower setting, touch the - button briefly (Fig. 10).
-
To choose a higher setting, touch the + button briefly (Fig. 11).
Note: For the best results, use the highest light setting that is comfortable to your eyes.
