Preparing for treatment
• Arrange yourself in front of the unit so you can relax
and enjoy the treatment of the part of the body con-
cerned.
• Tilt the lamp so the unit is angled directly at the part
of the body being treated.
• The distance to the infrared radiant heater depends
largely on personal heat sensitivity and the treatment
concerned.
• Make sure the distance between the infrared radi-
ant heater and the part of the body being treated
is not less than 30 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 beginning.
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.
• Set the time selector (5) to the desired duration (1 to
15 minutes).
• You can press the time selector (5) during operation
to reset the treatment duration.
• The infrared radiant heater switches off automatically
after the set time.
• For an additional treatment, you only need to press
the time selector (5) to reset your individual treatment
time.
Important
• Do not touch the hot glass.
• To end treatment, use the On/Off switch (3) and dis-
connect the power plug.
During treatment
• Examine the part of the body treated frequently and
check for skin reactions. Cease exposure immedi-
ately 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
warm.
After treatment
• Switch off the unit at the On/Off switch (3).
• Pull the mains plug out of the socket.
