HB555 and HB556: tanning sessions: how often and how long?

Take one tanning session a day for five to ten days. Wait at least 48 hours after the first session before taking the second session. After this 5 to 10-day course, we advise you to give your skin a rest for a while.

BApproximately one month after a course, your skin will have lost much of its tan.You can then start a new course.

BIf you want to keep your tan, do not stop tanning after the course, but continue taking one or two tanning sessions a week.

Whether you choose to stop tanning for a while or whether you continue tanning on a lower frequency, always keep in mind that you must not exceed the maximum number of tanning hours. For tanning appliance HB 555 and HB556 (10 tube lamps) the maximum is 23 hours (= 1380 minutes) a year.

Example

Suppose you are taking a 10-day course, consisting of a 9-minute tanning session on the first day and a 25-minute tanning session on the following nine days.

The entire course will then last (1 x 9 minutes) + (9 x 25 minutes) = 234 minutes. This means you can take 5 of these courses a year, as 5 x 234 minutes = 1170 minutes.

Of course, this maximum amount of tanning hours is valid for each treated part or side of the body separately. (E.g. for the front side of your body and for the other side.)

Table

As is shown in the table, the first session of a tanning course should always last 9 minutes, irrespective of the sensitivity of the skin.

If you think that the sessions are too long for you (e.g. if the skin gets taut and tender after the session), we advise you to reduce the sessions by e.g. 5 minutes.

To get a beautiful all-over tan it is suggested that you turn slightly during the session so that the sides of your body are better exposed to the tanning light.

Preparing for use

Fixing the stand

1With one person helping you, lay the tanning appliance on a table top with the lamps facing downwards (fig. 2).

2Fasten the castor wheels to the stand by means of the spanner (fig. 3).

3Mount the stand to the rod (fig. 4).

4Use the socket wrench to fasten the rod with the socket screws provided (fig. 5).

5Lift the tanning appliance from the table top (fig. 6).

6Remove the plastic foil from the acrylic sheet (fig. 7).

You can tan either lying, (fig. 8).

sitting, or (fig. 9).

standing with this tanning appliance (fig. 10).

To make this possible, you can adjust the height and position of the upper casing.

During tanning, the distance between the acrylic sheet and your body should be at least 20 cm.

If you intend to tan while lying, this means that the distance between the acrylic sheet and your bed, couch or mattress should be at least 40 cm (fig. 11).

Height adjustment

1 Rotate the height adjustment knob anti-clockwise two or three turns to release the rod (fig. 12). A gas spring stabilizes the position of the rod.

2Adjust the height of the rod by pulling or pushing (fig. 13).

3Turn the height adjustment knob clockwise until tight to lock the rod (fig. 14).
