Cleaning; Changing The Infrared Lamp - Beurer IL 50 Manual De Instrucciones

Preparing for treatment
• Arrange yourself in front of the unit so you can re-
lax and enjoy the treatment of the part of the body
concerned.
• Tilt the lamp so the unit is angled directly at the
part of the body being treated.
• The distance to the infrared heat lamp depends
largely on personal heat sensitivity and the treat-
ment concerned.
• Make sure the distance between the infrared heat
lamp and the part of the body being treated is not
less than 12 inches (30 cm) and not more than 16
inches (40 cm)!
Do not use the unit for more than 15 minutes at a
time (risk of overheating). Allow the unit to cool down
before you use it again.
Treatment duration
Important
Risk of burns: Remove any metal items, e.g. belt
buckles, necklaces, bras, jewellery or piercings, from
the treatment area before switching on the device as
they can become very hot.
We recommend short treatment times at the begin-
ning. However, even when the unit is used correctly,
the skin of some people can have an oversensitive
or allergic reaction to the heat treatment (e.g. intense
redness, blisters, itching, heavy sweating).
Starting the unit
Important
• Always close or cover your eyes when radiating
the face.
• Press the On/Off switch (3)
• The unit will turn on automatically after a short time.
• The Time Display (4) will show 15 minutes (Rec-
ommended treatment time).
• You can press the time selector (5) to reduce the
treatment time. Each push reduces the time by
1 minute.
• The infrared heat lamp switches off automatically
after the set time.
• To end the treatment before the timer runs out, use
the On/Off switch (3) and disconnect the power
plug.
Important
Do not touch the hot glass
During treatment
• Examine the part of the body treated frequently
and check for skin reactions. Cease exposure im-
mediately if there are any signs of oversensitivity
or an allergic reaction, and consult a doctor.
• The unit can be switched off at any time using the
On/Off switch (3).
• Do not cover up or pack the unit away while it is
still warm.
After treatment
• The fan will continue running for 5 minutes af-
ter you have finished using the device in order to
cool it down.
Please do not unplug the device during this period.
• Once the cooling period has finished, the fan will
switch itself off. Switch off the device and remove
the mains plug from the socket.
Note:
The bulb is fragile when hot. After operation, let the
device cool down before you move it.
