Solution
Please read section 'Contraindications and other warnings' in chapter
'Important' to check if the appliance is suitable for your skin.
Make sure the socket to which you connect the appliance is live. Check
if the voltage indicated on the appliance corresponds to the local mains
voltage. Check if you have placed the appliance in the stand properly. If you
use a socket in a bathroom cabinet, you may need to switch on the light to
activate the socket. If the light on the appliance still does not light up or if the
appliance still does not charge, contact the Philips Consumer Care Centre.
Charge the appliance according to the instructions in this user manual. Check
if there is a power failure and if the wall socket is live. Check if the charging
light on the appliance lights up to make sure the appliance is charging. Make
sure that you have pressed the on/off button properly. If the appliance still
does not work, contact the Philips Consumer Care Centre.
This is a safety measure. The appliance is not intended to work when it is
charging. Let the appliance charge approximately 1 hour for a 5-minute
treatment.
Only use the appliance on dry skin. The appliance only works optimally on
dry skin.
This treatment may lead to mild redness directly after the treatment. You may
experience a warm, tingly sensation during the treatment. These effects usually
disappear within several minutes and are generally experienced as pleasant.
It is possible that you experience dry or flaky skin, prolonged redness or
swelling. In that case you may have pressed the appliance too hard on your
face or treated the same area too many times. Try to exert less pressure onto
the appliance during the next treatment or treat the area fewer times. In rare
cases the appliance may cause a bruise or blister, scratch or pigmentation
change. Almost all skin reactions will disappear within a week, pigmentation
change will decrease within several weeks or a few months. To avoid possible
side effects, use a day cream with sun protection factor or a sun protection
cream after the treatment. This helps to avoid sunburn. The appliance has
been tested and confirmed safe for use when used as described in the user
manual. Medicines or products and their possible side effects can affect
individual people in different ways. Since there is always the possibility that
a rare or previously unknown side effect may occur with the use of this
appliance or any other product, please contact the Philips Consumer Care
Centre in case you experience a side effect which is not mentioned above.
