Philips Sunmobile HB952 Bedienungsanleitung Seite 5

Do not use sun creams or lotions meant to protect your skin against sunburn.
If your skin should feel taut after the tanning session, you may apply a moisturising cream.
To acquire an even tan you should lie directly below the lamp units.
Do not choose a tanning distance of less than 65 cm.
Only move the appliance when it is in transport position. Make sure that the two parts of the
appliance have been properly fastened before you move it. Do not attempt to lift the
appliance on your own.
Colours may fade under the influence of the sun.The same effect may occur when using this
appliance.
Do not expect the appliance to yield better results than the natural sun.
Tanning and your health
The sun, UV and tanning
The sun
The sun supplies various types of energy.Visible light enables us to see, ultraviolet (UV) light
gives us a tan and the infrared (IR) light in sunrays provides the heat in which we like to bask.
UV, tanning and your health
Just as with natural sunlight, the tanning process will take some time.The first effect will only become
visible after a few sessions (see chapter 'Tanning sessions: how often and how long?').
Overexposure to UV light (natural sunlight or artificial light from your tanning appliance) can cause
sunburn.
Besides many other factors, such as overexposure to natural sunlight, incorrect and excessive use of
a tanning appliance may increase the risk of skin and eye problems.The degree to which these
effects occur is determined by the nature, intensity and duration of the exposure on the one hand
and the sensitivity of the person involved on the other hand.
The more the skin and the eyes are exposed to UV light, the higher the risk of keratitis,
conjunctivitis, damage to the retina, cataracts, premature skin ageing and the development of skin
tumours will be. Some medications and cosmetics increase the sensitivity of the skin.
Therefore it is highly important:
that you follow the instructions in chapters 'Important' and 'Tanning sessions: how often and
B
how long?'.
that the tanning distance (distance between the UV filters and the body) is 65 cm.
B
that you do not exceed the maximum number of tanning hours per year (i.e. 20 hours or
B
1200 minutes).
that you always wear the goggles provided while tanning.

IR, relaxation and your health (HB955 only)
Warmth has a relaxing effect.Think of what a hot bath or lazing in the sunshine does to you.You can
enjoy the same relaxing effect by switching on the infrared lamps.
Bear in mind the following when you have a relax session:
- Avoid getting too hot. Increase the distance between yourself and the lamps, if necessary.
- If your head gets too hot, cover it or move your body so that less heat is emitted towards your
head.
- Close your eyes during a relax session.
- Do not let the relax session last too long (see chapter 'Relax sessions: how often and how
long?').
