Never use the device on the following areas:
-
Around the eyes and on or near the eyebrows. Lumea can only be used on
the body and on the female face (below the cheekbone).
-
On the lips, scalp, perineum, nipples, areolas, labia minora, vagina, anus and
the inside of the nostrils and ears.

reactions.

Over or near anything artificial like silicone implants, subcutaneous injection
ports (insulin dispenser) or piercings.

Men must not use the device on the face and neck including all beard-
growing areas, nor on the whole genital area. The hairs in these areas have
different characteristics. The skin may get burnt (with pain, prolonged skin
redness and pigmentary changes).
Note: This list is not exhaustive. If you are not sure whether you can use the
device, we advise you to consult your doctor.
Please read and follow these instructions to optimize the use of the device and
prevent/minimize the risk of injury, skin reactions and side effects.
-
Before you use Lumea, you should clean your skin and make sure it is
hair‑free, entirely dry and free from any lotion or gel.
-
Keep the device and the adapter dry.
-
The device is not washable. Never immerse the device in water and do not
rinse it under the tap.
-
Water and electricity are a dangerous combination. Do not use this device in
wet surroundings (e.g. near a filled bath, a running shower or a filled
swimming pool). Moisture can damage the device and lead to a potential
safety hazard.
-
Always check the device before you use it. Do not use the device or adapter if
it is damaged. Always replace a damaged part with one of the original type.
-
If the device or adapter is broken or damaged, do not touch any inner part to
avoid electric shock.
-
Do not use the device if the UV filter of the light exit window and/or
attachment is broken, as safe operation cannot be guaranteed under these

batteries. Opening Philips Lumea may expose you to dangerous electrical
components and to pulsed light energy, either of which may cause bodily
and/or eye injury.
-
Always return the device to a service center authorized by Philips for
examination or repair. Repair by unqualified people could cause an
extremely hazardous situation for the user.
