flashed once, release the flash button.

on the skin and is harmless to your eyes. It is not necessary to wear goggles
during use.

Let go of the flash button after the appliance has flashed. For the
next flash, repeat steps 5 to 8. After each flash it takes up to
3.5 seconds until the appliance is ready to flash again.

This does not improve the effectiveness of the treatment, but increases
the risk of skin reactions.

To avoid untreated areas, always make sure there is some overlap
with the previously treated area when you place the appliance on the
skin.The effective light only comes out of the light exit window with
integrated UV filter. Make sure the flashes are produced close to
each other. Ask somebody else to help you with the treatment if you
want to treat your back to ensure that the treated areas overlap.

Switch off the appliance after you have finished the treatment.

Check the body attachment and light exit window for hairs and
dirt and clean the appliance after use. See chapter ‘Cleaning and
maintenance’.
