Adjusting Light Angle and Height

For optimum light therapy results, you will need to adjust
your Day-Light Sky so that:
• The light shines down at an angle of about 15°; and
• Your eyes are approximately in the center of the light.
Adjustable button

To Adjust Angle and Height of the Light

There are two adjustment buttons on the arm of your
Day-Light Sky. Each silver button, when pressed, allows
you to move the light head or arm to several different
positions.
When you wish to adjust the height or angle of the light
head, press the appropriate adjustment button while
holding the light head to move it to desired position.
To maintain the position, release the adjustment button
to lock the arm in position.
By removing your hand from the light head and allowing
it to engage, the head will properly and gently settle to
the engaged position.
To set the angle of the light at approximately 15° use the
best combination of adjustments of the light head based
on your position from the lamp and your height.
When not using your Day-Light Sky for light therapy, you
can easily reposition the light head to use as a task lamp
over or near your work space.
Correct Position for Therapy
The lamp head angle should be set around 15⁰ from 90⁰
vertical and the lamp head height adjusted so that your
eyes are approximately in the center of the light. The
light should down on your eyes, do not stare at the light.
Sit 12"/30 cm from the light. You can comfortably read or
have breakfast at this distance. Moving the lamp farther
away can still provide a therapeutic benefit (up to about
24"/60 cm), but treatment times may be longer as the
LUX levels reaching your eyes decrease.
