Therefore, the following safety precautions must be
observed:
- Always use protective goggles.
- Remove cosmetics in time for tanning and do not
use any type of sunscreen agent.
- Do not tan when taking medication which increases
the sensitivity of the skin to ultraviolet radiation. If in
doubt, consult a physician.
- Always leave a break of one day between tanning
sessions and do not have a sunbath on the same
day.
- Follow recommendations concerning tanning times,
intervals and distances.
- Visit your physician if the skin displays persistent
swelling, sores or pigmented moles.
After tanning
It is advisable to apply a moisturizing lotion to the skin
after tanning.
Tanning program
Using data which coordinates skin types with the radiation
source integrated in your tanning system,
a tanning program has been determined for your tanning
system in accordance with the recommendations of EN
60-335-2-27. This program accompanies your tanning
system as printed matter.
The beginning and maximum exposure times must not
be exceeded.
