10To avoid untreated areas, always make sure there is some overlap with the previously treated area when you place the appliance on the

skin.The effective light only comes out of the light exit window. Make sure the flashes are produced close to each other.

			Switch off the appliance after you have finished the treatment.

			clean the appliance after use (see chapter ‘Cleaning and maintenance’).
	Guidelines for treatment
	Average treatment time
Area			Approx. treatment time
Underarms			1.5 minutes per underarm
Bikini line			1.5 minutes per side
Entire bikini area			5 minutes
One lower leg			12 minutes
One full leg			20 minutes
		Note:The average treatment times above have been observed during research
		and tests. Individual treatment times may vary from person to person.
		Note: Fully charged batteries offer at least 320 flashes at intensity 5. How long
		you can use the appliance depends on the size of the area to be treated and
		the intensity setting used.
		Using the appliance on the legs
		Check the recommended light intensities table in chapter ‘Preparing for
		use’, section ‘Setting the light intensity’ to see which settings are suitable for
		your legs.
		-- You can move the appliance up and down or across the leg, whichever
			is more convenient to you.
		Note: Bony areas like shinbone and ankles are more sensitive than other areas
		of the body.When you press the attachment hard onto these areas, the skin
		can be more susceptible to skin reactions, such as skin irritation and redness.
		See section ‘Possible side effects and skin reactions’ in this chapter. Press the
		attachment onto the skin just hard enough to make the ‘ready to flash’ light go
		on, but not harder.
		Tip:The appliance may leave imprints on the skin in the treated areas.These
		imprints may show you where you can make the treated areas overlap.
		If you use the appliance to treat both your lower and upper legs, you may
		have to recharge the appliance during the treatment.This is normal. How
		long you can use the appliance depends on the size of the treatment area
		and the intensity setting used.

Tip: Many users combine leg treatments with other activities around the house such as watching TV or listening to music.You can also try this to make the experience more enjoyable and relaxing.
