INITIAL USE

Take the device out of the plastic wrapping. Check the device for damage or faults. If you notice any damage or faults on the device, do not use it and contact Customer Services or your supplier.

Setting Up the Device

Place the device on a level surface. The position should be chosen to ensure a distance of between 25 cm and 45 cm between the user and the device. The lamp is most effective at this distance.

Mains Connection

• To prevent possible damage to the device, the daylight therapy lamp must only be used with the mains adapter described here.
• Insert the mains adapter into the connector provided for this purpose on the rear of the daylight therapy lamp. The mains adapter must only be connected to the mains voltage that is specified on the type plate.
• After using the daylight therapy lamp, unplug the mains adapter from the mains socket first and then disconnect it from the daylight therapy lamp.

NOTICE: Ensure that there is a mains socket close to the set-up area. Arrange the mains cable in such a way that no one will trip over it.

Connecting the Mains Adapter

Insert the mains adapter into the connector.

Switching On the Lamp

• Press and hold the On/Off button 5 for 2 seconds. 
• When the device is next switched on, it will start with the saved brightness level and treatment time.

LED Display/Timer

The TL 95 Daylight Therapy Lamp indicates your current treatment time using 4 LEDs. The treatment time can be set at the following 4 levels. The timer function will not be active when the lamp is switched on for the first time. The lamp now runs until it is switched off again or a treatment time is set (timer = 0 min). To use the timer, set the desired level from 1 to 4 by briefly pressing the On/Off button 5. Level 1 sets a treatment time of 30 minutes. The other levels are as follows:

Brightness Setting

The TL 95 Daylight Therapy Lamp has 6 brightness levels. The desired brightness level can be set using the flower button on the side. This level should be set so that it is pleasant for the eyes during treatment. Settings 1 to 6 correspond to 25%, 33%, 43%, 57%, 75%, and 100% intensity, respectively. When the device is switched off, the last level that was set is saved. Note: The device can also be used as a reading lamp from level 1.

Enjoying the Light

Position yourself as close as possible to the lamp, at a distance of between 25 cm and 45 cm. You can continue to go about your day-to-day activities during the treatment, including reading, writing, making telephone calls, etc.

• Keep looking directly into the light for a short period of time, as it is absorbed and shows an effect via the eyes/retina.
• Use the daylight therapy lamp as often as you want. However, the treatment is most effective if you carry out the light therapy for at least 7 successive days according to the prescribed times.
• The most effective time of day for the treatment is between 6 am and 8 pm, and we recommend that you use the device for 2 hours per day.
• However, do not look directly into the light for the entire treatment time, as this may cause overstimulation of the retina.
• Start with a brief treatment time and gradually increase the time over the course of a week.

NOTICE: You may experience pain in the eyes and headaches after the first few applications. This pain should disappear in further sessions as the nervous system becomes accustomed to the new stimuli.

Things to Consider

We recommend a distance of between 25 and 45 cm from the face to the lamp during treatment. The treatment time depends on the distance.

Extra Bright

This daylight therapy lamp is particularly bright (14,000 lux at a distance of approximately 20 cm).

Enjoying the Light Over Longer Periods

Repeat the treatment on at least 7 consecutive days during darker periods of the year, or for longer depending on your individual needs. The treatment should take place during the mornings where possible.

Switching Off the Lamp

• Press and hold the On/Off button 5 for 2 seconds. 
• The LEDs switch off. Unplug the mains adapter from the mains socket.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

The device should be cleaned from time to time.

CAUTION

• Ensure that no water gets inside the device! The device must be switched off, disconnected from the mains, and allowed to cool down each time before cleaning.
• Do not clean the device in the dishwasher. Use a slightly damp cloth to clean the device.
• Do not use any abrasive cleaning products and never submerge the device in water.

Do not touch the device with wet hands when it is plugged in, and do not allow water to spray on the device. Only operate the device if it is completely dry.

Storage

If you are not going to use the device for an extended period of time, disconnect it and store it in a dry place, out of the reach of children. Follow the storage instructions provided in the "Technical Specifications" chapter.

Troubleshooting the Beurer Daylight Therapy Lamp TL 95

Common issues with the **Beurer Daylight Therapy Lamp TL 95** include no power, dim light, or timer malfunctions. If the lamp doesn't turn on, check the mains adapter connection (230V input, 3m cable) and ensure it's plugged into a working outlet; press and hold the On/Off button for 2 seconds. For dim illumination, verify distance (14,000 lux at 20 cm, 10,000 lux at 25 cm, 5,000 lux at 30 cm) and adjust to level 6 via the flower button; clean the 37 x 30 cm surface for optimal output.

No specific error codes are listed, but flickering (none detected in tests) may indicate power issues—unplug for 10 minutes to reset. Timer not working? Briefly touch On/Off until LEDs extinguish to deactivate; it auto-dims before shut-off. Preventive measures: Use on a stable surface, avoid direct eye exposure, and store in a dry place. The device has a 3-year warranty; contact Beurer support at service@beurer.com or visit shop-beurer.com for repairs. For UK users, Boots customer service at 03451210986 assists.
