N.B.:
• We recommend that you hold the intensity selection guide against an
area such as the back of your wrist (because this is an area of the body
which is usually darker as it is exposed to the sun more).
• If in doubt as to which of any two phototypes to choose, choose the
darker one.
Note: In order to use Homelight® safely, the intensity selection guide
must, categorically, be used in conjunction with the instructions given
in this instruction manual. Selecting the wrong level of intensity can
lead to side effects.
