Philips Lumea SC1994 Manual page 25

Problem
The skin feels more
sensitive than usual during
treatment. I experience
discomfort when I use the
device.
There is no glass filter in my
attachment.
The skin reaction after
treatment lasts longer than
usual.
The flash is very bright to
my eyes. Do I need to wear
goggles?
Possible cause
The light intensity setting you
use is too high.
You did not remove the hairs
on the areas to be treated.
The UV filter of the light exit
window is broken.
You treated an area for which
the device is not intended.
This is normal.
You have used a light
intensity setting which is too
high for you.
No, Philips Lumea does not
hurt your eyes.
Solution
Check if you have selected the most
comfortable light intensity setting. If
necessary, select a lower setting.
Pretreat your skin before you use Lumea.
If the UV filter is broken, do not use the
device anymore. Contact the Consumer
Care Center in your country, your Philips
dealer or a Philips service center.
Never use the device on the following
areas: on moles, freckles, large veins,
darker pigmented areas, scars, skin
anomalies, warts, tattoos or permanent
make-up, around the eyes and on or
near the eyebrows, on the lips, nipples,
areolas, labia minora, vagina, anus and
the inside of the nostrils and ears. Men
must not use the device on the face and
neck including all beard-growing areas,
nor on the whole genital area.
No action required: there is no filter in
the body attachment. Only the facial and
bikini attachments have a specialized
filter.
Select a lower intensity next time (see
'Selecting the light intensity').
The scattered light produced by the
device is harmless to your eyes. Do not
look at the flash while using the device. It
is not necessary to wear goggles during
use. Use the device in a well-lit room so
that the light is less glaring to your eyes.
Be sure to make good skin contact to
avoid scattered light.
