3. Position the light area on the skin and press the trigger button in order
to release a light pulse at level 1. Ensure that the light area and skin
contact sensor come into full contact with the skin. A light pulse can
only be released once the skin contact sensor is in full contact with the
skin. You will see a bright flash, hear a cracking noise and may feel a
slight burning sensation and/or warmth. Within 1-3 seconds (depending
on the intensity level), the device is ready for the next pulse and the in-
dicator lamp on the device is continuously illuminated green.
4. Position the skin contact sensor on another treatment area. Increase the intensity level by
pressing the ON/OFF/power selection button again and release a light pulse using the trig-
ger button. Do not exceed the maximum permitted/recommended intensity for your skin
tone (see the hair and skin colour chart on the back page of these instructions for use).
Note
Only increase the energy level if the previous level is not uncomfortable for you. If energy
level 1 is uncomfortable for you, do not increase the energy level.
5. If you experience an uncomfortable feeling after the flash, reduce the intensity.
6. Complete the skin sensitivity test. Wait 48 hours and examine the treated skin area. If the
treated skin surface appears normal (no reaction or only slight reddening), you can treat
the tested skin areas at the intensity level set for the skin sensitivity test.
Note
If your treated skin surface produces a reaction (e.g. reddening or swelling), wait until the
symptoms have fully subsided and then carry out another skin sensitivity test at a lower
intensity. If the treated skin surface reacts again, consult your doctor.
6. Starting the application
1. Insert the device plug into the device and insert the mains plug into
the mains socket. The indicator lamp begins to flash green (stand-by).
2. Press the ON/OFF/power selection button. On the intensity display, a
small light (level 1) begins to illuminate continuously in green and
the device fan switches on.
3. If you wish to carry out an application at a higher intensity level,
increase the intensity by repeatedly pressing the ON/OFF/power
selection button until you have reached the desired intensity.
