English
Traveling west
Since most people's body clocks adjust more easily to later time
zones, you only have to use the Philips EnergyUp for one day before
you travel across four time zones. Add an additional preparation day
for each three additional time zones. You do not have to use the
Philips EnergyUp for more than three days, even on longer
westbound trips. Use the appliance for 30–40 minutes late in the
evening. Start two or three days before you leave. Use the appliance
two hours later the following nights.
When you arrive at your destination, try to stay awake until bedtime
and avoid bright evening light (wear sunglasses) for the first few days.
Before you travel home, avoid any bright afternoon and evening light.
Use the Philips EnergyUp in the morning for a few days.
Light intensity
Use the Philips EnergyUp in addition to the normal room lighting. The
Philips EnergyUp is more comfortable to use in a well-lit room. Adjust
the brightness to a comfortable level. Allow a few minutes for your
eyes to get used to the bright light. If the highest setting is too bright
for you, start using the appliance at a lower setting. Increase the light
intensity if you feel no effect after a week.
How to use the appliance
1 Fold out the stand and place the appliance on a table (Fig. 2).
2 Insert the small plug into the socket on the appliance (Fig. 3).
3 Insert the adapter into a wall socket (Fig. 4).
4 Place the appliance at arm's length (at approximately 50-75cm
from your eyes) within your field of vision. The light must bathe
your face (Fig. 5).
- You can read, eat, work at the computer, watch TV or exercise
while you use the appliance.
- For the best results, place the appliance at the same level as
your midriff (stomach area), e.g. place it on the table at which
you are sitting.
- Make sure that the surroundings of the appliance are well-lit for
more visual comfort.
