Tanning with artificial light
- Follow the instructions in 'Sun exposure before treatment' and 'Sun
exposure after treatment' above.
Tanning with creams
- If you have used an artificial tanning lotion, wait until the artificial tan
has fully disappeared before you use Philips Lumea Precision Plus.
Note: For more details on unwanted skin reactions, see chapter 'Using the
appliance', section 'Possible side effects and skin reactions'.

Using the appliance

Check the recommended light intensities table in chapter 'Preparing for
use', section 'Setting the light intensity' to determine which light intensities
are most suitable for your skin and body hair colour. Use the appliance in
a well-lit room; this reduces the perceived brightness of the flash. Shave
the area you intend to treat before you use the appliance (see chapter
'Preparing for use', section 'Preparing treatment areas').
If the treatment becomes intolerably painful at any point in time, reduce
the light intensity setting until the treatment is comfortable again. If you
notice skin reactions stronger than slight redness, stop the treatment
immediately and read section 'Possible side effects and skin reactions' in
this chapter.

Choosing the right attachment

- Body attachment
The body attachment can be used to treat unwanted body hair on all
body areas below the neck (for exceptions, see chapter 'Important', section
'Contraindications'). The body attachment can cover an area of 4cm² and
has been specially designed for faster treatment of larger areas like legs.
Do not use the body attachment on the face.
- Precision attachment
The precision attachment includes an additional integrated light filter and
can be used for extra-safe treatment of unwanted facial hair on the upper
lip, chin and sideburns. It may also be used on other sensitive areas of the
body, such as the underarms and bikini area or hard-to-reach areas.
Never use around the eyes and near the eyebrows.

First use and skin test

1 Choose the attachment appropriate for the area you intend to treat.
2 Choose an area close to the area you intend to treat.
