Important; Cleaning, Changing The Infrared Lamp, Fuse And Storage - Beurer IL 50 Mode D'emploi

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!
• Protective eyewear which corresponds to the re-
quirements of DIN EN 171 2002 must be worn for
treatment distances under 30 cm. For treatment dis-
tances above 30 cm, closing your eyes is sufficient.
CAUTION
Never look directly into the infrared light without pro-
tective eyewear.
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).

face.

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 immediately
if there are any signs of oversensitivity or an allergic
reaction, and consult a doctor.

Off switch (3).
