7. Operation

1
Remove the stand from the storage slot on the rear of the device.
2 Clip the stand into one of the two holders [7] on the rear. The orientation/angle of the TL 20 changes
depending on where and in which direction you attach the stand. The stand can be inserted so that the
bend faces up or down. You can therefore position the daylight therapy lamp at two different angles.
The stand can be attached on both the long and short sides, which enables you to use the TL 20 both
horizontally and vertically.
3 Switching on the lamp
 Press the ON/OFF button.
4 Enjoying the light
Position yourself as close as possible to the lamp, at a distance of between 10 cm and 30 cm. You can
continue to go about your day-to-day activities during application, including reading, writing, making
telephone calls, etc.
• Keep looking directly into the light for a short period of time as it is absorbed and shows an effect via
the eyes/retina.
• Use the daylight therapy lamp as often as you like. However, the treatment is most effective if you
carry out the light therapy for at least 7 successive days according to the prescribed times.
• The most effective time of day for the treatment is between 6 am and 8 pm
and we recommend that it is used for 2 hours per day.
• However, do not look directly into the light for the entire application period as this may cause over-
stimulation of the retina.
• Start with a brief application period and gradually increase the time over the course of a week.
• Do not leave the daylight therapy lamp unsupervised if it is being used.
Note:
After the first few applications you may experience side effects such as pain in the eyes and head or nau-
sea. This should disappear in further sessions as the nervous system becomes accustomed to the new
stimuli. Refrain from using the daylight therapy lamp for a few days until the side effects have subsided,
then try to use the device again.
5 Things to consider
We recommend a distance of between 10 and 30 cm from the face to the lamp during application.
The duration of the application depends on the distance:
Lux
10,000
5,000
2,500
In principle:
The closer you are to the light source, the shorter the application time.
6 Enjoying the light over longer periods
Repeat application on at least 7 consecutive days during darker periods of the year, or for longer de-
pending on your individual needs. Application should take place during the mornings where possible.
7 Switching off the lamp
 Press the ON/OFF button. The LEDs switch off. Unplug the mains part from the mains socket.

IMPORTANT!

The lamp remains warm after use. Allow the lamp to cool down sufficiently before putting it away and/or
packing it away warm.
