The LSB phototherapy unit is a quality product from MEDISANA. To get the best use of your MEDISANA LSB phototherapy unit and to ensure a long service life, we recommend that you carefully read the following instructions on using and taking care of it.

2.1 Items supplied and packaging

Please check first of all that the device is complete and is not damaged in any way. If in doubt, do not use it. Send it to a service point.

The following parts are included:

1 MEDISANA LSB phototherapy unit
- 2 Instruction manuals

The packaging can be reused or recycled. Please dispose properly of any packaging material no longer required.

If you notice any transport damage during unpacking, please contact your dealer without delay.

WARNING

Please ensure that the polythene packing is kept away from the reach of children! Risk of suffocation!

2.2 Special features of the LSB phototherapy unit

Many people suffer from symptoms of tiredness in winter due to the lack of sunlight.

The LSB phototherapy unit provides a light bath to treat seasonal affective disorder (SAD), also known as the "winter blues".

It is an appropriate and effective method of compensating for the lack of sunlight in the autumn and winter without resorting to drugs.

Possible applications

The appliance is used to counteract the following symptoms of winter depression:

Fatigue
- Mood swings
- Listlessness
Sleepiness
- Lack of concentration
- Lack of appetite

Time, frequency and duration of use

The most effective time of day to use the phototherapy unit is between 6 in the morning and 8 in the evening. You can use the unit for up to 2 hours daily.

You can use the phototherapy unit as often as you like. However, the treatment is most effective if you use it on at least five successive days.

The length of time you can use the LSB phototherapy unit depends on how far you are away from it:

Distance to panel Maximum duration of use

60 cm approx. 2 hours

40 cm approx. 1 hour

20 cm approx. 30 minutes

3 Operating

3.1

Usage

1. Place the appliance on a stable, level surface (such as a table).
2. Connect the power plug 5 to a socket and switch on the appliance using the ON/OFF button 8.
3. Sit at a distance of 20 - 60cm from the fluorescent screen in front of the unit so that the light easily reaches you. You do not have to sit facing the unit.
4. Use the swivel joint on the pedestal 6 to adjust the angle of the unit. Hold the upper cover 2 and move the fluorescent screen 1 to the required position.
5. The duration of the treatment depends on how far you are sitting from the unit (see "2.2 Special features of the LSB phototherapy unit").
6. You can take a break or stop at any time. As long as you do not move more than 60~cm away from the unit, you can do other things during the treatment, such as read or watch television.
7. Do not look directly at the fluorescent screen 1 for any length of time when it is switched on. It is enough to regularly turn your face towards it.
8. Always switch off the appliance using the ON/OFF button 8 and unplug it from the socket when it is not in use.
9. Let the appliance cool down for at least 15 minutes before putting it away or touching it.

NOTE

To carry the device more easily, use the grip recess in the upper section of the rear side.

3.2 Changing the fluorescent lamps

On average, the fluorescent lamps need to be changed after approximately 8000 hours' use. If a lamp fails, it must be replaced.

In order to change a fluorescent lamp, the appliance must be completely disassembled. Have the lamps changed by your specialist dealer, an authorised service centre or a qualified specialist to prevent damage to the appliance.

WARNING

• Used fluorescent lamps must be disposed of in accordance with the applicable regulations on environmentally harmful waste. If you have any questions about disposal, contact your local authority or your dealer.
• Before changing the fluorescent lamps, the device must always be switched off using the ON/OFF switch 8 and the power plug 5 must be disconnected from the mains socket. Beware of electric shock.
• Be careful when handling fluorescent lamps - they can easily break.
• Always replace fluorescent lamps with lamps of the same type. Always replace both lamps at the same time.
