afety InformationsLABELING NOTICE: Labels are affixed on all systems to inform the user of possible dangers. Regulations are stated in21 CFR, Section 1040.20, and require that all products manufactured after September 8, 1986 which use sunlampsmust display the following:

DANGERUltraviolet radiation. Follow instructions. Avoid overexposure. As with natural sunlight, over-exposure can cause eye and skin injury and allergic reactions. Repeated exposure may

cause premature aging of the skin and skin cancer. WEAR PROTECTIVE EYEWEAR; FAILURE TO MAY RESULT IN SEVEREBURNS OR LONGTERM INJURY TO THE EYES.

Medications or cosmetics may increase your sensitivity to the ultraviolet radiation. Consult physician before usingsunlamp if you are using medications or have a history of skin problems or believe yourself especially sensitive tosunlight. If you do not tan in the sun, you are unlikely to tan from the use of this product.

Minimum use distance from face tanner is 1 inch or 2.54 centimeters. Minimum use distance elsewhere is touchingthe clear plastic panels. Do not use without clear plastic panels (or wire grid for models using wire grid) in place.Tanning normally appears after the first few sessions and maximizes after approximately four weeks. Tan once ortwice per week thereafter to maintain appearance. Frequency of sessions should be limited to every other day.Persons already having a base tan may begin at advanced levels corresponding to the extent of their base tan.

New lamps emit approximately 20% more UV during the first 50 hours of operation. Recommended tanning timesshould therefore be reduced by approximately 20% during that period.

WARNING: • Read the instructions booklet before using this sunlamp product. • To use, lie down under canopyand pull down as far as adjustment will allow. All persons in the room should wear protective eyewear when lampsare on. • Recommended eyewear: provided eyeshields (Lucas Products Super Sunnies or Intrexco No. 5635/1) orequivalent eyewear as defined under 21 CFR 1040.20.

• Your hair should be free of gels,mousses, sprays, or other hair prod-ucts prior to tanning. These productscan cause damage to the sunbedacrylic. As an alternative, a showercap or towel can be worn to keeptreated hair away from the sunbedsurfaces.

perationO• Some medication may increase your

sensitivity to ultraviolet light. It is rec-ommended that you consult a physi-cian before using this sunbed if takingany medication or if you suspect thatyour skin might be especially sensitiveto sunlight. Included with this manualis an FDA booklet on medications thatincrease sensitivity to light.

• As with all electrical appliances, donot operate this device near wateror while you are wet.

Exposure Times

We recommend that you tan every otherday, following the tanning times in theexposure schedule. Tanning normallyappears after the first few sessions andmaximizes after approximately fourweeks. Tan once or twice per week there-after to maintain appearance. Personsalready having a base tan may begin atadvanced levels corresponding to theextent of their base tan.

Follow the guidelines for skin type andexposure times as shown in the tablebelow.

are & MaintenanceCCleaning After Use

Clean and disinfect your tanning bed’sbench and canopy after each use. Use anon-abrasive disinfectant cleaner thatdoes not contain ammonia or ammoniaderivatives. Ammonia may damage theacrylic shield. Spray the acrylic lightlywith disinfectant and wipe dry with aclean soft cloth. Wipe the canopy gridwith a soft cloth slightly dampened withdisinfectant then wipe dry. We recom-mend SunQuest® disinfectant andSunQuest® acrylic cleaner.

Thorough Periodic Cleaning

Introduction

The cooling fans draw air through the bedand over time will cause a dust buildupon the lamps and reflectors. This willreduce the tanning effectiveness of thebed. When a dust buildup is observed, itis necessary to thoroughly clean theinside of the bench and canopy.Warning! Disconnect sunbed from elec-trical power before cleaning.

Cleaning the Canopy and Bench

Step 1. Remove the acrylic shield, metalgrid and lamps as described inReplacing Lamps.

Step 2. With a soft cloth, wipe the entirelength of each lamp to removeany film buildup.

Step 3. Clean both sides of the acrylicshield and grid with a non-ammonia disinfectant cleaner.

Step 4. Wipe the reflectors with a cleandamp cloth.

Step 5. Re-install the lamps, acrylicshield and grid.

Mechanical Inspection

Your tanning bed has been built for yearsof service. To ensure trouble-free opera-tion throughout its life, inspect the unit’smechanical integrity every 400-500 hoursof use.

• Inspect the unit’s fasteners verifyingthat all are firmly in place. Pay partic-ular attention to the hinge bolts.

• Inspect gas springs for signs of wear.Gas springs that will not hold thecanopy in the full open position whenraised should be immediately replaced.

• Inspect the timer as indicated in thismanual under Timer Maintenance.

• Inspect the AC power cord and itsconnections.

• Inspect the acrylic. Broken, crackedor badly scratched acrylics should beimmediately replaced.

Replacing Lamps

Introduction

To be assured of maximum tanning effec-tiveness, change lamps after approximate-ly 800-1000 hours of use. Tanning willcontinue after this time but at a slowerrate. To ensure trouble-free operation ofyour sunbed, replace the lamp starterswhenever the lamps are replaced.

Warning! Disconnect sunbed from elec-trical power before servicing.

Removing/Replacing Acrylic Shield andCanopy Grid

The acrylic shield in the bench and metalgrid in the canopy are both secured inplace by colored profile strips which runthe length of the canopy and bench, bothfront and back. To remove the strips, gen-tly pry up on the outside edge of the stripnear the middle of the bed with a flat,blunt object (such as a putty knife) untilthe retainer releases its latching action(See figure below). Continue prying upthe strip throughout its full length until

removed. Repeat for the other strips. Thelong edges of the acrylic shield andcanopy grid are now exposed.

Canopy Grid

By sliding the grid towards the head orfoot end it should drop out easily.

Bench Shield

Slide the acrylic shield toward the heador foot end of the bed. The short edge ofthe acrylic shield at the opposite endshould now be visible. Remove the shieldby lifting from this end.

After changing lamps, replace the acrylicshield and canopy grid by reversing theabove steps. Take special care to ensurethat the acrylic and grid are both cen-tered from head to foot beforeinstalling the profile strips. Replaceeach strip by first installing its ends intoplace under the endcaps, then workingtoward the center, pushing it into place.

Timer Maintenance

Your SunQuest sunbed is equipped with abackup shut-off timer which will auto-matically turn off the sunbed in theunlikely event of a malfunction of the pri-mary timer. This important safety featurealso prevents the user from re-setting thetimer before the end of the pre-set maxi-mum time interval. The electronic timerlimiting circuit is automatically reset eachtime the primary timer is turned to theOFF position.

Annually, or whenever your sunbed is re-lamped, check the operation and accura-cy of the timer system as follows. DONOT perform these tests with a person inthe sunbed.

Step 1. Obtain an accurate watch capa-ble of measuring in seconds. Setthe timer to its maximum inter-val. Using the watch, time howlong the lamps remain on. Thelamps should shut off within plusor minus 10% of the maximumtimer interval.

Step 2. Set the timer to the maximumtime interval. Wait ten minutes,then turn the knob back to themaximum time position. Theelectronic time limiting circuitshould turn the lamps off at anelapsed time equal to approxi-mately 10% beyond the maxi-mum timer interval, eventhough the primary timer con-tinues to show time left.

Call ETS Customer Service if your timerdoes not operate properly, or if you experience difficulty with these tests.

new lamp lights and the old lamp still does not,replace old lamp.

3. If replacing lamp does not remedy problem, con-tact your service representative.

Gas springs should hold the canopy fully open aswell as allow it to rest fully closed. If the canopy isleft open for an extended period of time it maycreep down. This is considered normal. Keep thecanopy closed when not in use. Replace gas springswhen they no longer have sufficient power to holdthe canopy open when raised.

1. Check source of AC power. Reset circuit breaker orreplace fuse if necessary.

2. Check timer system per maintenance instructions inthis guide. Contact your local service representative.
