Please note that treatment on unshaved or improperly shaved

areas has a number of undesired effects:

- Contamination (burns/black spots) of the removable window with

stray hairs and dirt. A contaminated removable window can reduce the

lifetime and efcacy of the appliance. In addition, burns/black spots on

the removable window can cause the treatment to become painful or

cause skin reactions like redness and discolouration.

- Hairs on your skin can burn and this can result in an unpleasant smell.

2 Clean your skin and make sure it is hair-free, entirely dry and

free from oily substances (e.g. present in cosmetic products like

deodorants, lotions, perfumes, tanning creams and sunscreens).

3 Check the appliance, especially the removable window and lter glass

for trapped hair, dust and bres. If you see any contamination, clean

the appliance according to the instructions in chapter ‘Cleaning and

maintenance’.

Notes:

- If shaving causes wounds or lesions, your skin may be more sensitive

and the light treatment might feel uncomfortable sometimes.

- Once the hairs stop growing back - which usually happens after 4-5

treatments - you no longer have to shave before you use the appliance.

- If shaving causes skin irritation, you can also use a trimmer to trim the

hair as short as possible. Light treatment after trimming might make it

a little uncomfortable and you may get the smell of burning hair. Make

sure you always use a setting that is comfortable for you. Using the

appliance on trimmed hair might increase the chances of hairs getting

trapped in the recessed window. Make sure you clean the appliance

carefully after each treatment.

Setting the light intensity

Philips Lumea is an appliance developed for consumer use at home and

therefore NOT COMPARABLE with professional light-based appliances

with respect to pain sensation. Pulses of light delivered by Philips Lumea

are gentler than those from professional appliances and therefore you can

expect a convenient and effective treatment.

You have to adjust the light intensity to your skin and body hair colour and

to a level you nd comfortable.

The table with recommended light intensities below helps you to establish

the right light intensity.

1 Consult the table below to determine which light intensities are

most suitable for your skin and body hair colour and to check if this

method is suitable for you (if it is not, this is indicated with x in the

table).

Persons with darker skin run a higher risk of skin irritation because their

skin absorbs more light. Therefore lower intensities are recommended

for persons with darker skin.

2 For each body area you want to treat, select a suitable intensity

in the recommended range that is as high as possible but does

not cause any discomfort on the skin. Each body area and possibly

even parts of a body area may require a separate appropriate light
