Intended Use; Warnings And Safety Notes - Beurer HT 15 Gebrauchsanweisung

3. Intended use

Intended use
When it comes into contact with a louse or nit, the lice comb emits a harmless electrical impulse
that is imperceptible to humans. When combing the hair, the lice are struck by the electrically
charged metal teeth and effectively removed. The lice comb therefore provides a simple, safe and
effective method to remove lice.
Target group
Use the lice comb to treat hair lice and nits only. The lice comb is intended for domestic/private
use only, not for commercial use
Indication/clinical benefits
The Beurer HT 15 lice comb allows you to simply and cleanly rid the scalp of lice and unhatched nits
(the eggs of the lice). The lice comb does not use any chemicals, meaning it is particularly gentle on
the scalp. The device is only intended for combing human head hair, as well as cat and dog fur.
