User’s Manual

Opal Fitness cabin is a device for exposing ultraviolet light (UV) devoted to use in professional tanning studios under control of properly trained personnel. Ultraviolet light is emitted by 49 lamps. Time of exposure is regulated with a remote control.

After turning off the lamps, fans are working for several minutes to cool the inside of the machine and lamps.

The machine has air inputs at the bottom of the sides. Keep this place clean to avoid getting any dirt and rubbish into the cooling system. Before turning on the machine ensure that the inputs are not covered.

The room

During a session the tanning unit makes a lot of heat, so the room where it works should be cooled properly, especially during intensive work. You should also allow for fresh air to come into the room.

The temperature in the room shouldn’t be higher than 25^oC.

Near the cabin in a visible place, there should be a tablet placed with a sentence:

“WARNING! UV radiation can cause damage to eyes and skin. Contact personnel to learn more about this. Always wear protective goggles. Some forms of medication or cosmetics may increase susceptibility.If you have long hair, pin tie it to avoid potential contact with a fan.”

More information:

• Ultraviolet light emitted by sun or UV devices may cause damage to eyes and skin. These biological effects depend on quantity and quality of exposure as well as the individual sensitivity of eyes and skin.
• Excessive exposure can result in sunburn. Tanning too often may lead to fast skin ageing and increase a risk of skin cancer.
• Lack of eyes protection may cause ophthalmia and in some cases, for example after cataract operation, a retina can be damaged.
• Special caution is needed when your skin is sensitive to sun light and when you use certain medication and cosmetics.

For these reasons you should always obey the following rules:

• Always use protective goggles;
• Before tanning session remove cosmetics from your skin;
• do not tan if you take medication increasing sensitivity for ultraviolet light; if you have any doubts, contact your doctor;
• take at least 48-hour’s break between first and second tanning;
• do not tan more than once a day including tanning in the natural sunlight;
• obey the rules of tanning time, breaks in tanning and proper distance to lamps;
• contact your doctor if you see any abnormal skin reaction.
