Solution
To prevent your skin from developing side effects, the
appliance does not work on skin that is too dark. You might
be able to use Philips Lumea Essential on lighter coloured
body parts. If this does not work either, contact the
Consumer Care Centre in your country, your Philips dealer
or a Philips service centre.
When the overheat protection has been activated, the fan
still works. Do not switch off the appliance. Let it cool down
for approx. 15 minutes before you continue to use it. After
5 minutes the appliance switches off automatically. Then let
it cool down for 10 more minutes. If the 'ready to flash' light
still does not work when you place the appliance on the
skin, contact the Consumer Care Centre in your country,
your Philips dealer or a Philips service centre.
To reset the appliance, switch off the appliance and switch
it on again. If the 'ready to flash' light lights up continuously,
but the appliance still does not produce a flash when you
press the flash button, contact the Consumer Care Centre
in your country, your Philips dealer or a Philips service centre.
Place the attachment on the appliance properly.
To reset the appliance, switch off the appliance and switch it
on again. If the intensity lights continue to go on alternately,
contact the Consumer Care Centre in your country, your
Philips dealer or a Philips service centre.
Contact the Consumer Care Centre in your country, your
Philips dealer or a Philips service centre.
Clean the attachment and the light exit window carefully.
If you are unable to clean the attachment properly, contact
the Consumer Care Centre in your country, your Philips
dealer or a Philips service centre to replace the attachment.
If there are hairs on the area to be treated, these hairs may
get burnt when you use the appliance. As a result, you notice
a strange smell. Shave the area to be treated properly before
you use the appliance. If shaving causes skin irritation, trim
hairs as short as possible and use the Philips Lumea Essential
at a comfortable setting.
