Why use a daylight lamp?
When the hours of daylight are noticeably decreased in autumn and people increasingly stay inside, the effects of a lack of light may cumulate. This is often described as „winter depression“. The symptoms can present themselves in a number of ways:
• |
Imbalance |
• Need for more sleep |
|
• |
Subdued mood |
• |
Loss of appetite |
• Lack of energy and listlessness |
• |
Difficulty concentrating |
|
•Generally feeling under the weather
The cause of these symptoms is the fact that light, particularly sunlight, is essential for life and has a direct effect upon the human body. Sunlight indirectly controls the production of melatonin, which is released into the blood only in darkness. This hormone tells the body when it is time to sleep. In the months when there is less sunlight, therefore, production of melatonin increases. This makes it harder to get up in the morning, since the body‘s functions are shut down. If you use the daylight lamp immediately after waking up in the morning—thus as early as possible—you can end the production of melatonin so that your mood takes a positive turn. In addition, light deficiency also hinders production of the happiness hormone serotonin, which decisively affects our well-being. So application of light involves quantitative changes in hormones and neurotransmitters in the brain, which can affect our level of activity, our feelings and our well-being. Light can help reverse this hormone imbalance. To compensate for such a hormonal imbalance, the brightlight creates a suitable replacement for natural sunlight.
In the medical field, brightlights are used to compensate for the effects of a lack of light. Brightlights simulate daylight over 10,000 lux (10 cm distance). The light can influence the human body and be used as a treatment or as a preventative measure. Normal electric light is not sufficient to influence the hormonal balance. Because in a well-lit office the illuminance level amounts to just 500 lux.

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.
Positioning the device
Place the device on an even surface. The position should be chosen to ensure a distance of between 20 cm and 60 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 brightlight must only be used with the mains part described here.
•Insert the mains part into the connection provided for this purpose on the rear of the brightlight. The mains part must only be connected to the mains voltage that is specified on the type plate.
•After using the brightlight, unplug the mains part from the mains socket first and then disconnect it from the brightlight.
Note:
•Ensure that there is a socket near the place where the lamp will stand.
•Lay the mains cable in such a way that no one can trip over it.
