Interesting facts about tanning
The radiation of the solarium is of an
optimal composition. The special lamps
emit a particularly large amount of mild
UV-A tanning rays. This avoids sunburn,
while allowing the skin to tan in the
shortest possible time.
The tanning appliance can only produce
its optimal tanning effect when the nor-
mal preconditions are present which are
required for tanning in sunlight. The
radiation of the tanning appliance will
have no tanning effect on people whose
skin does not tan in sunlight.
General safety precautions
UV appliances must not be used by
persons who sunburn in sunlight without
tanning their skin (Skin type I), persons
who tend to suffer severe sunburning,
children under 16 years of age, or by
persons who have suffered from skin
cancer or who have a tendency to do so.
Instructions concerning exposure times
and intervals between tanning sessions
must be followed.
Do not use the solarium if the time
mechanism is faulty or if the filter glass is
broken.
Ultraviolet exposure (=radiation) from the
sun or from UV appliances can lead to
damage to the skin or eyes. These
biological effects depend on the type and
quantity of exposure (radiation), as well
on the sensitivity of the individual skin.
english
The skin may experience sunburn after
increased exposure. Too frequent
repetition of ultraviolet radiation from
sunlight or from UV appliances can lead
to premature aging of the skin as well as
to an increased risk of skin tumours.
Unshielded eyes can suffer inflammation
on the surface of the eye, and in some
cases excessive exposure to UV light
may damage the retina. Many repeated
tanning sessions can lead to the formation
of grey cataracts without the use of
protective eyewear.
Special care must be taken in cases of
special sensitivity in some individuals to
ultraviolet radiation, as well as in cases
where particular medications or
cosmetics are being used..
Therefore the following precautionary
measures must be seized:
lHealthy tan takes time!
Never take more than one sunbathe
per day.
Always have a break for one day.
Recommendation:
Up to 10 sunbathes within 2-3 weeks.
In the following time app. 2 sunbathes
per week.
lCorresponding to your skin type is the
beginning time for tanning. Please
inform you with help of the tanning
times table or your family doctor.
lUse the attached protection glasses
for protecting your eye-lens.
