An internal safety switch will automatically turn the system off if the light source is turned upward in order to protect eyes from exposure.

warning NOTE: The safety mechanism includes a switch that will make a rattling sound — this is a normal function.

Initial Set-up

Open battery compartment located on the underside of the handle area.
Insert four AA alkaline batteries as indicated in battery cavity (batteries are not included).
Carefully replace cover making sure to slide it completely closed.

Operation

To operate your Verilux^® CleanWave^® Portable Sanitizing Wand:

While holding the Wand with bulb facing down and away from skin or eyes, press the large blue button for 3 seconds (green light will flash).
Begin sanitizing by holding the Wand as close as possible and no more than one-half inch above the surface and move Wand slowly side to side in a 12" (1 foot) area. UV-C effectiveness depends on direct exposure, duration and intensity. Place the wand as close to the object as possible, preferably within 1/2 inch. (see illustration below).
To turn the Wand off, press the blue button until the green light goes out.
Remove batteries when not in use to extend battery life.

warning Note: A safety switch will automatically turn off the Wand if the light source is turned upward (it will go back on when the light source is once again turned downward).

After 10 minutes of continuous operation the unit will shut down — simply restart Wand if additional use is required.

When the battery is low and needs replacing, the Wand will beep 10 times and the LED will flash 10 times.
