Cleaning
• Always unplug the solarium and let it cool down before
cleaning.
• You can clean the outside of the solarium with a damp
cloth. Make sure that no water runs into the appliance.
• Do not use abrasives or scourers, or liquids such as petrol
or acetone.
• You may clean the UV filters with white spirit sprinkled on a
soft cloth.
Replacing the sun lamps and/or UV filters
In the course of time (in normal family use after some years)
the efficiency of the sun lamps will gradually decrease.
If this happens, you may increase the tanning session time or
have the sun lamps replaced.
The UV filters protect against undesired radiation. It is
therefore important to have a damaged or broken filter
replaced right away.
Have the sun lamps and UV filters replaced only by
authorized service personel: only these have the required
skill and dispose of the original replacement parts.
The lamps of solariums contain substances which
may pollute the environment.
When discarding lamps, please ensure that they are
separated from the normal household refuse and that
they are disposed of at an officially assigned place.
For U.K. only:
Fitting a different plug
This appliance is fitted with a BS 1363 13 Amp. plug.
Should you need to replace the plug, connect the wires as
follows:
Green/yellow wire to the Earth terminal (E) of the new plug.
Brown wire to the Live (L) terminal of the new plug.
Blue wire to the Neutral (N) terminal of the new plug.
Always fit the same value of fuse as that originally supplied
with your appliance.
Only use BS 1362 approved fuses.
As a guide only: Appliances under 700 W can have a 3 Amp.
fuse (red) and all others should have a 13 Amp. fuse (brown).
When disposing of an old plug (particularly the moulded type
which has been cut from the mains cord) always remove the
fuse as the plug could be dangerous if ever inserted in a live
socket.

Solarium does not operate as required?
If the solarium should not operate as required, this may be due to a defect. In this case do not hesitate to apply to your dealer or
to a Service Centre.
However, it is also possible that the appliance has not been installed according to the instructions or is used incorrectly.
If this is the case, you will be able to solve the problem immediately.
You may check the following section before contacting your dealer or Service Centre.
Problem
• Solarium does not switch on.
• The power fuse switches the mains
power off when switching on or while
using the solarium.
• The browning is not according to your
expectations.
Possible cause
- Mains plug is not in wall socket.
- No mains power. (Please check with other appliance.)
- The lamps are still too warm to restart. (Allow the lamps to cool down for
approx. 3 minutes.)
- Ventilation was insufficient and the automatic thermal safety device has
switched the appliance off. (Remove the cause of overheating (e.g. take
towel away from ventilation opening(s)) and wait for 10 minutes before
switching on again.)
- The two upper casings L have not been folded out. (Please refer to
section "Making the solarium ready for use".)
- Check the fuse to which the solarium has been connected.
The proper type for your solarium is a 13 A or 16 A normal fuse or a slow
reacting automatic fuse.
- You use an extension cord which is too long and/or does not allow the
required power levels. Please apply to your dealer.
In general, we advise not to use an extension cord.
- You followed a course which is not the most appropriate for your skin type.
- The operational distance is larger than indicated.
- After using for a long time the UV production of the lamps decreases.
(With normal use this will not be noticeable before years.)
You may compensate for this effect by selecting longer treatment times or
have the sun lamps replaced.
