2.2 In autumn and winter - the seasons with less sunshine hours and short How days - the lacking sunlight influences the chemical processes in the does the brain. The hypothalamus function will be constrained and it is presumed, therapy that the production of the hormone melatonin is being influenced. It may light cause unwanted tiredness.

LT 470 The MEDISANA Therapy Light LT 470 provides bright electrical light in order to simulate the missing sunlight in autumn and winter. This is generated without the harmful UV radiation of the sunlight. The light therapy helps to level the production of the hormone melatonin and relieve the symptoms of winter depression (SAD).

3.1 Commis-sioning

• Place the device on a stable, level surface (e.g. on a table). Make sure that the device will not drop or fall down. Use the fold-out stand 5 on the rear side of the device.
• Alternatively: Fastening of the Therapy Light on a wall. There is a mounting hole ④ on the rear side of the appliance. At this mounting hole the appliance can be fixed on the wall with screw. Depending on the type of wall, an appropriate screw must be used, may be with pegs. E.g. for concrete wall, stainless steel self-tapping screw which is screwed into an anchor. The screw and the anchor are not included in the scope of delivery. Important: If the mounting hole or back housing is cracked or damaged, do not fix the appliance on the wall.
