If you notice a skin tone change since the last treatment, we advise you to
perform a skin test and to wait 24 hours before your next treatment.
-
Always check the device before you use it. Make sure that the SmartSkin
sensor window is clean when using the device, to avoid improper operation
(see 'D Clean & store after treatment').
-
The adapter, light exit window and the filter of the attachments can become
very hot (>210 °C) during usage. Always let the adapter, the light exit
window as well as the glass filter and inner parts of the attachments cool
down before you touch them.
-
This device has a detachable power supply unit. Only use the adapter
provided with this device. Do not use an extension cord. The reference
number (AD2069x20020HF) can be found on your device. The 'x' in this
number refers to the plug type for your country.
-
Never leave the device unattended when it is plugged in.
-
Always unplug the product when it is fully charged.
-
Do not expose the device to direct sunlight or to high temperatures (near
hot stoves, in microwave ovens or on induction cookers). Batteries may
explode if overheated.
-
If the battery is damaged or leaking, avoid contact with skin or eyes. If this
occurs, immediately rinse well with water and seek medical attention.
-
If the device behaves in a different way during your normal routine (e.g.
abnormal smell or vibrations, longer charging time) stop using and charging
your device and contact customer support for help.
-
Follow the recommended treatment schedule. Increasing the frequency,
especially in the initial phase, can increase the risk of skin reactions.
With Intense Pulsed Light technology, gentle pulses of light are applied to the
skin and absorbed by the hair root. The lighter the skin and the darker the hair,
the better the pulses of light are absorbed.
The pulses of light stimulate the hair follicle to go into a resting phase. As a
consequence, the hair sheds naturally and hair growth is prevented.
