[. . . ] 18 English 4 Start each treatment by selecting the light intensity very carefully, based on your skin’s sensitivity and on how comfortable treatment feels. Your skin may react differently on different days/occasions for a number of reasons. See section ‘Possible side effects and skin reactions’ in this chapter for more information. 5 Press the % button to increase the intensity. To lower the intensity, press the ^button. , , Every time you press the button, the corresponding intensity light starts to flash. 6 Place the appliance in a 90° angle on the skin so that the attachment and the safety ring are in contact with the skin. 7 Press the safety ring fully onto the skin with slight pressure. Note:The safety ring has contact switches that together are the safety system of the appliance. This safety ring prevents unintentional flashing without skin contact. , , The ‘ready to flash’ light on the back of the appliance lights up green when all contact switches of the safety ring are in contact with the skin and the device is charged. 20 English -- You can move the appliance up and down or across the leg, whichever is more convenient to you. Note: Bony areas like shinbone and ankles are more sensitive than other areas of the body. When you press the attachment hard onto these areas, the skin can be more susceptible to skin reactions, such as skin irritation and redness. See section ‘Possible side effects and skin reactions’ in this chapter. Press the attachment onto the skin just hard enough to make the ‘ready to flash’ light go on, but not harder. Tip:The appliance may leave imprints on the skin in the treated areas. These imprints may show you where you can make the treated areas overlap. If you use the appliance to treat both your lower and upper legs, you may have to recharge the appliance during the treatment. How long you can use the appliance depends on the size of the treatment area and the intensity setting used. Tip: Many users combine leg treatments with other activities around the house such as watching TV or listening to music. You can also try this to make the experience more enjoyable and relaxing. [. . . ] You have used a light intensity which is too high for you. Solution 29 Do not use the appliance if you have a very dark skin. Do not use it either if your body hair is light blond, red, grey or white. Select a lower light intensity the next time. [. . . ]
