No modification of this equipment is allowed. Do not modify, override or cut
off any part of the device (e.g. battery, adapter or the cord), as this causes a
hazardous situation.
-
Do not look at the flash while using the device. Use the device in a well-lit
room so that the light is less glaring to your eyes. While not necessary for
safety, you may wear sunglasses or goggles for your convenience if you find
the light uncomfortable or too bright.
-
Do not flash the same spot multiple times during a treatment. The surface of
the attachment should overlap the previous spot to make sure you flash the
complete skin area, but treating the same area multiple times does not
increase efficacy.
-
For hygienic reasons, the device should only be used by one person.
-
Do not use hair removal creams in the area (to be) treated with the device,
as chemicals may cause skin reactions.
-
Do not use any pencil or pen to mark the areas to be treated. This may cause
burns on your skin.
-
The device can be stored at a temperature between -25 °C and 70 °C.
Charge and use the device at a temperature between 5 °C and 35 °C. The
device will not work properly outside of this temperature range. This may
cause burns on your skin.
-
Only use this product for its intended purpose and follow the general and
battery safety instructions as described in this user manual. Any misuse can
cause electric shock, burns, fire and other hazards or injuries.
-
Hair removal by intense pulsed light sources can cause increased hair growth
in some individuals. Based upon currently available data, the highest risk
groups for this response are females of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and
South Asian heritage treated on the face and neck.
-
If you experience skin irritation or skin redness after treatment, wait until it
disappears before applying any product to your skin. If you experience skin
irritation after applying a product to your skin, wash it off with water. If you
still get skin reactions, stop using the device and consult your doctor.
-
If shaving, epilating or waxing causes skin irritation, we advise you not to use
the device until the skin irritation has disappeared.
-
This device is not intended for use by persons with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they
have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the device by a
person responsible for their safety.
-
Keep Lumea out of the reach of children.
-
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
device. Supervision is required to avoid potential risks such as exposure to
the light output, electrocution, strangulation from the cables or choking on
the attachments.
-
Always avoid exposure to natural sunlight and artificial sunlight up to
4 weeks before your Lumea treatment and 48 hours afterward. Sensitive or
tanned skin is more likely to result in burns or pigmentation changes. Protect
your skin from sunlight with clothing or apply sun-blocking products of not
less than SPF50 on the non-covered treatment areas. Read the instructions in
chapter 'Using your Lumea before and after sun exposure or tanning' to
learn how to use your Lumea safely.
