Important notes
 WARNING
• The distance between the body part and the infrared lamp is
generally determined based on individual sensitivity to heat and
the type of treatment being performed. The greater the distance
between you and the device, the larger the treatment area and
the lower the heat of the infrared light. At a smaller distance,
the treatment area is reduced and the heat of the infrared light
becomes more intense.
• Limit the length of use and check the skin's reaction.
• An appropriate distance between the infrared lamp and the de-
sired treatment area must be maintained during treatment so
that no skin irritation, such as tingling, itching, and burning, or
too high heat sensitivity occurs. Stop the treatment if this occurs.
Alternatively, increase the radiation distance and/or reduce the
radiation duration.
• This device is not intended for radiation from above.
• This product is not suitable for lighting rooms in private homes.
• To avoid unintentional contact with the hot filter disc, make sure
that there is su cient distance between you and the device. Se-
lect the distance to the device such that the heat feels pleasant
for you.
• Medications, cosmetics or food products can lead to a hyper-
sensitive or allergic skin reaction in some cases. Should this oc-
cur, radiation should be stopped immediately.
• Exercise particular caution and attentiveness during continued
operation of the device.
• Do not use the device if you are tired and there is a risk of falling
asleep during radiation.
• Overly prolonged radiation may lead to the skin being burned.
• Children do not recognise the dangers posed by electrical devic-
es. Make sure that the device cannot be used by children without
supervision.
• Do not use the device in a linty or dusty environment.
