Check if the voltage indicated on the appliance corresponds to the local mains voltage before you connect the appliance.

If the mains cord is damaged, you must have it replaced by Philips, a service centre authorised by Philips or similarly qualied persons in

order to avoid a hazard.

If the wall socket used to power the appliance has poor connections, the plug of the appliance becomes hot. Make sure you plug the

appliance into a properly connected wall socket.

The appliance must be connected to a circuit that is protected with a 16A standard fuse (in the UK 13 A fuse) or a slow-blow automatic

fuse.

Water and electricity are a dangerous combination. Do not use this appliance in wet surroundings (e.g. in the bathroom or near a shower or

swimming pool).

If you have just been swimming or have just taken a shower, dry yourself thoroughly before you use the appliance.

Do not tan a particular part of your body more than once a day. Avoid excessive exposure to natural sunlight on the same day.

Do not use this tanning appliance if you have a disease and/or use medication or cosmetics that increase the sensitivity of the skin to

ultraviolet light. Be extra careful if you are hypersensitive to ultraviolet light. Consult your doctor in case of doubt.

Do not use the tanning appliance and consult your doctor if unexpected effects such as itching occur within 48 hours after the rst session.

Never use this appliance when the timer is defective or when the acrylic sheet or the UV lter of the face tanner (HB556 only) is damaged,

broken or missing.

This appliance is not to be used by people who get sunburns without tanning when exposed to the sun, by persons who suffer from

sunburn, by children, or by persons who suffer (or have previously suffered) from skin cancer or who are predisposed to skin cancer.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,

unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

If your skin feels taut after the tanning session, you can apply a moisturising cream.

Colours may fade under the inuence of the sun. The same effect may occur when you use this appliance.

Do not expect the appliance to yield better results than the natural sun.

HB556 only: The face tanner is tted with an automatic protection against overheating. If the appliance is insufciently cooled (e.g.because

the vents are covered), the face tanner switches off automatically. Once you have removed the cause of overheating and the face tanner has

cooled down, it switches on again automatically.

Noise level: Lc = 59 dB(A)
