Tanning Instructions; Notes For The User - KBL megaSun K7S Operating Instructions Manual

Tanning instructions

As a rule, normally tanning skin will have achieved an
even tan after three to five tanning sessions. These
tanning sessions should be done every other day. To
maintain the tan once it has been achieved, one to
two tanning sessions per week are usually sufficient.

Notes for the user

Observe the following notes on tanning.
GENERAL
• Only persons as described in the chapter "Intended
use" may use the tanning device.
• Never exceed your personal minimum erythema
dose (MED). Adhere to the information in the tan-
ning tables and the tanning times specified therein.
• If reddening of the skin (erythema) occurs approx.
16-24 hours after tanning, suspend further tanning
for the time being. After one week, tanning can be
resumed at the beginning of the tanning table.
• If unexpected effects (e.g. itching) occur within 48
hours after the first tanning session, consult a doc-
tor before further tanning sessions.
• Once a final tan has been achieved, further tanning
can only be achieved by greatly exceeding the per-
missible tanning times. This should be avoided at
all costs.
• UV radiation from the sun or from UV devices can
cause irreversible skin or eye damage. The biologi-
cal effect depends on the quality and quantity of the
radiation as well as the individual's skin sensitivity.
• In cases of severe individual sensitivity or allergic
reactions to UV radiation, a doctor should be con-
sulted before tanning begins.
• The skin may show sunburn after excessive radia-
tion. Excessive repeated UV radiation with sunlight
or UV devices can lead to premature ageing of the
skin and an increased risk of skin cancer.
• The unprotected eye can become inflamed on the
surface and in certain cases, e.g. after cataract sur-
gery, excessive radiation can damage the retina.
Cataracts can form after many repeated radiations.
• Consult a doctor if persistent swellings or sores
form on the skin or pigmented moles change.
• Certain medical conditions or side effects of medi-
cations may be aggravated by ultraviolet radiation.
FOR EVERY TANNING SESSION
• Always wear the protective goggles provided.
Contact lenses or sunglasses are not a substitute
for the goggles!
• Remove cosmetics before radiation and do not use
any sunscreen or products that accelerate tanning.
The skin should be thoroughly cleansed and dry for
tanning.
• Allow at least 48 hours between tanning sessions.
• After tanning, do not sunbathe outside on the same
day.
• Protect sensitive skin areas such as scars, tattoos
and genitals from radiation.
