with the doctor’s consent.
Bruises and sprains – Start the treatment
around 12 hours after the accident and
continue until any pain and all stiffness has
disappeared.
Dermatitis, boils – Healing is promoted by
regular infrared irradiation, if used in
conjunction with remedies prescribed by
the doctor.
Wounds – Wounds heal quicker with
treatment using the infrared lamp. At the
same time, the risk of infection is reduced.
For infected wounds and for cases in
complex locations, consult the doctor
first.
Chilblains and cold feet – Chapped skin,
chilblains, numb fingers, occasional cold
feet etc are caused by reduced blood flow.
Treatment with the infrared lamp makes the
blood vessels expand and stimulates
circulation. However, it is important to start
the treatment in good time.
Caring for Your
Appearance
Healthy and cared for skin primarily
demands sufficient circulation. Daily
treatment with the infrared lamp proves
time and again to be indispensable for
beauty care, as this infrared heat has depth
effect.
The skin also takes in cosmetic compounds
more quickly if the infrared lamp is used
before and after application. It makes no
difference whether skin is dry or greasy.
Hair loss – Infrared treatments combined
with a scalp massage, can help remedy
temporary hair loss.
Massage – The effect of massage is
significantly increased by transitional or
simultaneous infrared irradiation. The
muscles are relaxed more. Bruising and the
undesired build-up of fat disappear more
quickly.
Important for the
Sportsman
If the infrared lamp is used when
participating in the various forms of sport,
the blood flow is intensified.
This may help to improve sporting
performance.
The infrared lamp can also be used during
a break, in conjunction with a massage, in
order to relieve tiredness, muscle cramp
and stiffness. Small injuries such as
sprains, bruises and strains can be
combated effectively.
Treatment of Animals
The healing heat of the infrared lamp can
also be used for sick or injured pets: e.g. in
the case of bruising, sprains, muscle pains
(race horses and dogs), eczema, bald
patches, skin and teat infections, swollen
ankles and poorly healing wounds. Infrared
treatments have proven to be
advantageous even after dogs have been
trimmed.

When Should I Seek
Medical Advice?
Cleaning
To clean the outside of the unit, use a dry
or at most slightly damp, well-wrung cloth.
Then dry it well. Do not use aggressive or
abrasive cleaning agents.
If necessary, wipe off the cooled lamp with
a dry cloth.
Lamp Durability
All appliances are subject to rigorous
testing before leaving the factory. If you use
the infrared lamp as described in these
instructions, the performance will remain
constant for the entire lifetime of approx.
300 constant operating hours
(= approx. 1200 treatments of approx.
15 minutes).
The guarantee does not cover light bulbs.
Changing the Bulb
Ambient Conditions for
Transport/Storage
• Ambient temperature between -15 °C
and +40 °C
• Relative humidity between 30% and 75%
• Air pressure between 700 hPa and
1060 hPa
Repairing Possible
Faults
95% of all complaints are unfortunately
attributable to operating errors and can be
easily remedied. If you are unable to
remedy the problem using the
troubleshooting list below, please contact
our After-Sales Service by telephone or e-

For serious conditions
(diabetes, skin cancer, heart
disease, acute inflammations,
multiple sclerosis, thrombosis,
blood clotting problems), skin
conditions or if seemingly
harmless symptoms last too
long, you should consult your
doctor. In cases where the
healing can be accelerated by
heat, the doctor will
recommend infrared
irradiation.
Caution
Always disconnect the plug
from the mains socket
before cleaning and allow
the unit to cool completely
before cleaning and storing
it!
i
