Precautions - Remington iLIGHT Pro Use And Care Manual

Precautions

• DO NOT use the device near bathtubs,
showers, basins, or other vessels con-
taining water. Failure to follow these
precautions can cause electrocution
or electric shock. Contact Customer
Service for assistance. See page 48.
• DO NOT operate the Remington
iLIGHT device with an unapproved
power cord, or if it has a damaged plug
or cord. Keep the device cord away
from heated surfaces (such as stoves,
fireplaces, radiators or furnaces).
Failure to follow these precautions can
cause electrocution or electric shock.
Contact Customer Service for assis-
tance. See page 48.
• DO NOT open the Remington
iLIGHT device (except to replace the
removable TREATMENT CAP and/or
REPLACEMENT CARTRIDGE) or attempt
to repair the device as it contains no
user-serviceable parts. Trying to open
the device may also damage the
device and will void your warranty.
Please contact Customer Service if
you have a broken or damaged device.
See page 48. Failure to follow these
precautions can cause electrocution or
electric shock.
• If you've had professional, clinical, or
self-administered laser, IPL or elec-
trolysis hair removal treatments, wait
at least 6 months before using the
Remington iLIGHT device. If you've
waxed, plucked or epilated hair in the
treatment area, wait at least 6 weeks
before using the device. The device
uses the hair under your skin to disable
your hair at the root, so it is not effective
if the hair has been pulled out.

Risks
It is important to use the Remington
iLIGHT Hair Removal System prop-
erly. Make sure that you follow all the
Warnings, and that you do not use the
device if it is not right for you. See TOC.
If you do not understand any of the
Warnings, or have any questions, please
contact Customer Service. See page 48.
If you use the Remington iLIGHT device
as directed, the risks are low:
• Your skin may become red within 24
hours after treatment. This redness
generally clears up within a few hours.
If the redness does not go away within
2-3 days, contact Customer Service.
See page 48.
• You may develop temporary blisters,
although these are unlikely for people
with lighter skin tones. If you do develop
a blister, stop using the Remington
iLIGHT Hair Removal System, clean
the blister and cover it with a bandage
and change daily to help prevent the
blister from becoming infected. If
you need more information, contact
Customer Service. See page 48.
• In rare cases, an outbreak of cold
sores may develop in the area(s)
treated that have a history of cold
sores. If the cold sores do not heal
after 7 days, contact Customer
Service. See page 48.
