Ultraviolet radiation. Follow instructions. Avoid overexposure. As with natural sunlight, overexposure 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 SEVERE BURNS OR LONGTERM INJURY TO THE EYES. Medications or cosmetics may increase your sensitivity to the ultraviolet radiation. Consult physician before using sunlamp if you are using medications or have a history of skin problems or believe yourself especially sensitive to sunlight. If you do not tan in the sun, you are unlikely to tan from the use of this product. Children, the elderly, or fair skinned people who always burn easily and either never tan or tan minimally should not use this equipment.

To use, lie down under canopy and pull down as far as adjustment will allow maintaining at least 3 inches (7.6 centimeters) between your body and canopy clear plastic panel, otherwise overexposure may occur. Minimum use distance elsewhere is touching the clear plastic panels. Do not use without clear plastic panels in place. Untanned persons should not tan on consecutive days during their first week of tanning. Never tan more than once a day. Tanning normally appears after the first few sessions and maximizes after approximately four weeks. Tan once or twice per week thereafter to maintain appearance. Persons already having a base tan may begin at advanced levels corresponding to the extent of their base tan.

New lamps emit approximately 10% more ultraviolet radiation during the first 50 hours of operation. Recommended tanning times should therefore be reduced by approximately 10% during that period.

WARNING: • Read the instructions booklet before using this sunlamp product. • All persons in the room should wear protective eyewear when lamps are on. Recommended eyewear: provided eyeshields or equivalent eyewear as defined under 21 CFR 1040.20. Other types of eyewear may not provide adequate protection. Failure to use protective eyewear may result in severe burns or other eye injury. If discomfort develops, discontinue use and consult a physician.

Rayonnement ultraviolet. Veuillez suivre les instructions. Évitez une exposition excessive. Tout comme pour les

rayons du soleil, une exposition excessive peut causer des blessures aux yeux et à la peau et provoquer des réactions allergiques. Une exposition répétée peut causer le vieillissement prématuré de la peau et provoquer le cancer de la peau. PORTEZ DES LUNETTES PROTECTRICES: LE NON-RESPECT DE CETTE CONSIGNE DE SÉCURITÉ PEUT ENTRAÎNER DE GRAVES BRÛLURES OU DES LÉSIONS OCULAIRES À LONG TERME. Les médicaments ou les produits cosmétiques peuvent augmenter votre sensibilité au rayonnement ultraviolet. Consultez un médecin avant d’utiliser la lampe solaire si vous prenez des médicaments, si vous souffrez d’une maladie cutanée ou si vous croyez être particulièrement sensible aux rayons du soleil. Si vous ne bronzez pas au soleil, il est peu probable que vous bronzerez sous une lampe solaire. Les enfants, les personnes âgées et les personnes qui ont une peau claire qui brûle facilement, ne bronze jamais ou alors très peu, ne devraient pas utiliser cette lampe.

Étendez-vous sous la partie supérieure, puis abaissez celle-ci aussi bas que possible, en veillant cependant à conserver un espace d’au moins 3 pouces (7,60 centimètres) entre le corps et le panneau de plastique transparent de la partie supérieure, afin d’éviter une exposition excessive. Les autres parties du corps peuvent toucher les panneaux de plastique transparents. N’utilisez pas la lampe sans les panneaux de plastique transparents. La première semaine de bronzage, les personnes qui n’ont pas un hâle initial ne doivent pas se faire bronzer tous les jours. Ne vous faites jamais bronzer plus d’une fois par jour. Le bronzage commence normalement à apparaître après les premières séances : il atteint son apogée au bout d’environ quatre semaines. Les personnes qui ont déjà un teint hâlé peuvent commencer à des niveaux plus élevés, selon l’importance de leur hâle initial.

Les lampes neuves émettent approximativement 10 % de plus de rayons ultraviolets au cours des 50 premières heures de fonctionnement. Le temps de bronzage doit donc êatre réduit d’environ 10 % pendant cette période.

AVERTISSEMENT : • Lisez le livret d’instructions avant d’utiliser cette lampe solaire. • Les autres personnes présentes dans la pièce doivent aussi porter des lunettes protectrices lorsque les lampes sont allumées. Coquilles de protection pour les yeux recommandées: Les coquilles de protection fournies ou l’équivalent, tel que le stipule le document 21 CFR 1040.20. Les autres types de lunettes protectrices peuvent ne pas assurer une protection adéquate. Utilisé sans lunettes protectrices, ce produit peut causer des brûlures ou lésions oculaires graves. Si vous souffrez d’un malaise, arrêtez l’utilisation et consultez un médecin.

Installation - Pre-Installation Planning

Pre-Installation Planning

Before you begin to assemble your sunbed, you should observe the following considerations.

• The SOLARIS® 542 operates from a 220V AC power source. The unit should be wired to a dedicated circuit capable of providing 50 Amp service. This unit must be hardwired directly to a junction box. We rec

ommend connection by a profes

sional electrician.

• This sunbed arrives with a ballast tray stop bar installed to limit tray movement (see below). To remove, lift the bar, shift it to the left or right and then pull it from the bed. After the bed is assembled, reinstall the bar to keep the tray from damaging the access panel if the bed is moved.

WARNING

Shock hazard.

Disconnect power before servicing.

Air from the room is used to cool the sunbed. Maximum ambient room temperature should be 80°F. Place your sunbed no closer than 6” from any wall. Make sure nothing obstructs the airflow into the sunbed’s endcaps or out of the fan openings. A poorly ventilated room may cause the unit to become hot and cause discomfort to the user.

CAUTION

Use of a voltage source above 230V AC may prevent proper operation of the sunbed and could cause damage and void the warranty. A buck booster transformer may be required to alter voltage.

CAUTION

Proper assembly of your sunbed requires three people. Plan to have a couple of helpers assist you.

Final Adjustments

Your sunbed uses a smooth gliding spring lift system to raise the canopy. This lift system may need to be adjusted slightly due to shipment. Remove the front access panel. Use a wrench to turn the hex shaped Lift Adjustment lugs (shown below), clockwise for more lift and counterclockwise for less. When adjusted properly, the canopy should raise easily as well as rest fully closed. Always adjust both lugs equally.

Make sure the air filters are in place. The filter on top of the ballast tray simply sits over the vent holes. Airflow holds it in place when the unit is on. The airflow arrow on the side of this filter should point down. The filter hanging under the bench should be installed with the arrow pointing up.

Installation - Remote Connections

Remote Connections

Your sunbed incorporates advanced circuitry allowing it to connect and communicate with most remote control systems. If a remote system is to be used, first determine whether the remote system is a T-Max® System or a standard remote system operating with a control relay. The following pages outline many different remote connection scenarios. Find the scenario that best fits your application.

Three remote ports are located on top of the ballast drawer at the front, two RJ-22 (4-wire) ports and one RJ-11 (6-wire) port. A Remote Control Bypass plug is already installed in one of the RJ-22 remote control ports. Your sunbed will not operate without the Remote Control Bypass plug or a remote system connected.

ATTENTION: Although the Remote Control Bypass plug provided with your sunbed will work wherever a T-Max® terminator is called for in the series, the TMax® terminator will not work as a bypass plug. Normally, a bypass plug is needed only when your sunbed is operated without a remote system connected.

You will notice some wire clamps along the side of the fan housing under the bench. These are for the remote cables to keep them out from under the ballast drawer when rolling the drawer in and out of the unit. Route the remote cables as shown below, leaving some slack for the drawer to roll out.

CAUTION

The remote connection is not designed to supply or accept high voltage, nor can it provide power to an external timer. The sunbed’s remote interface circuitry operates on 5 volts, attempting to connect it to any higher voltages will damage the sunbed as well as void your warranty.

T-Max® Products

The T-Max® remote systems offer the ultimate in sunbed control, while allowing the tanner easy straightforward operation. Your sunbed is configured to directly connect to this system, including the new wireless remote system. The circuitry inside your sunbed eliminates the need for the T-Max® 1A or 3A when connecting to the T-Max® Manager series. Your sunbed supports the auto addressing feature of the latest T-Max® Manager models and the following parameters: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15 and

23. See your T-Max® manual for descriptions of these parameters and how they function.

T-Max® Wireless Remote System

The T-Max® G2 eliminates wires in your salon, allowing easy setup without hiring an electrician to run wires. It also protects your investment from damage by isolating each unit from one another. Your sunbed arrives “wireless ready”, which means it connects directly to the T-Max® wireless system. Older tanning beds, and T-Max® managers, also utilize this system but require a T-Max “Power Injector” (PI) to provide the needed power to the wireless unit.

Remote System Hook-up Scenarios

Follow the diagrams on the next few pages to see the many different scenarios for hooking up your salon. If you need further assistance, call T-Max® directly at (417) 338-5101.

Page 18

28937-01A

Installation - Remote Connections

NOTE: A T-Max® 1A with a

“master” chip can be substituted

for a 3A.

Scenario 1 - T-Max® Manager Series with Complete Wireless

Connect one G2 (with Power Injector) to the Manager and one G2 to each of the tanning beds. Install as many beds as you like with this configuration. Units that do not communicate with T-Max will need a G2 with Power Injector and an additional 3A to operate. If you have an older T-Max® Manager that doesn’t support auto addressing, set the address of each sunbed manually as described in Setting the address manually. You can place your sunbed at any location in the series.

Scenario 2 - T-Max 3A with Wireless

In single sunbed installations, the T-Max® 1A and 3A can offer the same control as the T-Max® Manager, eliminating the need for a Manager. If you’re using a 1A in this manner, it must

have a chip labelled “master” installed on its circuit board. The remote control bypass plug must not

be used in this configuration. The 3A may be

used as a “master” with no modification.

After you have set the T-Max® 1A’s, or 3A’s, address to “0” (refer to your T-Max® user’s guide) and the sunbed’s address to “1”, simply connect one G2 (with Power Injector) to the T-Max® 3A and one G2 to the tanning bed.

Scenario 3 - T-Max® Manager Series with Wireless combo

Connect one G2 (with Power Injector) to the Manager and one G2 to a wireless ready tanning bed. The rest of the salon may be “daisy-chained” together and connected to the wireless equipped tanning bed, eliminating the need to wire the Manager to the tanning beds.

Page 19

28937-01A

Installation - Remote Connections

After you have set the T-Max® 1A’s, or 3A’s, address to “0” (refer to your T-Max® user’s guide) and the sunbed’s address to “1”, simply connect the RJ-22 modular cables, described in the T-Max® user’s guide, directly into either of the smaller ports located on the ballast drawer and either port on the back of the T-Max® 1A or 3A.

Scenario 4 - T-Max® Manager Series with Wireless combo 2

Wireless can be easily added to an existing salon already utilizing T-Max®. Connect one G2 (with Power Injector) to the Manager and one G2 to each wireless ready tanning bed. The rest of the salon may be “daisy-chained” together and connected to the Manager.

Scenario 5 - T-Max® Manager Series with wires

As always, this tanning bed is fully compatible with a wired T-Max® system. Simply connect the RJ-22 modular cable(s), described in the T-Max® Manager manual, into either of the smaller remote port(s) located on the ballast drawer and follow the instructions that came with your remote system.

Scenario 6 - Single Bed wired to T-Max® 3A

In single sunbed installations, the T-Max® 1A and 3A can offer the same control as the T-Max® Manager, eliminating the need for a Manager. If you’re using a 1A in this manner, it must

have a chip labelled “master” installed on its circuit board. The remote control bypass plug must not

be used in this configuration. The 3A may be used as a “master” with no modification.

Installation - Remote Connections

CAUTION

Scenario 7 - Non T-Max® Remote System wired to unit

Most non-T-Max® remote systems control the sunbed by the use of a relay. The relay operates the sunbed by connecting and disconnecting a pair of wires leading from the sunbed. Refer to the user’s manual provided with your remote system to determine if it operates in this way. To connect your sunbed to this type of system a remote interface kit is required. Contact your place of purchase to obtain the kit. The illustration below details a typical connection. Follow the instructions provided with the kit and from the remote’s manual to make the necessary connections.

Setting the sunbed address manually

Before connecting your sunbed to the T-Max® Manager or T-Max® 1A or 3A, the address of your sunbed must first be set. Set the “id” manually as described below.

Setting the “id”

1. Make sure no cables are plugged into your sunbed’s remote ports.

2. Remove and reapply power to the unit.

3. Press and hold the stop button, located on the sunbed display, for three seconds and release. The display should indicate an “id” number from “oF” to “252”.

4. If you are using a T-Max® 1A or 3A as a “master” remote, the “id” of the sunbed must be set to “1”. If you are using a TMax® Manager each sunbed must be assigned a different “id”. To set the “id” press the timer button, to count up, or the body fan control button, to count down, until the desired number is achieved.

5. Press the stop button to return to the normal display mode.

Before You Tan

Before using your sunbed, please note the following important precautions.

• Your skin should be free of cosmetics, oils, or other body lotions prior to tanning except for those specifically made for use with tanning devices. However, do not remove natural body oils by bathing or showering immediately before tanning.

• Your hair should be free of gels, mousses, sprays, or other hair products prior to tanning. These products can cause damage to the sunbed acrylic. As an alternative, a shower cap or towel can be worn to keep treated hair away from the sunbed surfaces.

• This unit intended for individual use. Only one pair of eyewear is included.

Exposure Times

Follow the guidelines for skin type and exposure times as shown in the table below. Untanned persons should not tan on consecutive days during their first week of tanning. Never tan more than once a day. Tanning normally appears after the first few sessions and maximizes after approximately four weeks. Tan once or twice per week thereafter to maintain appearance. Persons already having a base tan may begin at advanced levels corresponding to the extent of their base tan.

DANGER

Shock hazard.

Do not operate this device near water or while you are wet.

DANGER

Some medication may increase your sensitivity to ultraviolet light. It is recommended that you consult a physician before using this sunbed if taking any medication or if you suspect that your skin might be especially sensitive to sunlight.

are and Maintenance

Cleaning After Use

Clean and disinfect your tanning bed’s bench and canopy after each use. Use a non-abrasive disinfectant cleaner that does

not contain ammonia or ammonia derivatives. Ammonia may damage the acrylic

shield. Spray the acrylic lightly with disinfectant and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth. We recommend Australian Gold® pH Neutral Disinfectant Cleaner.

Thorough Periodic Cleaning

Introduction

The cooling fans draw air through the bed and over time will cause a dust buildup on the lamps and reflectors. This reduces the tanning effectiveness of the bed. When a dust buildup is observed, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the inside of the unit.

Cleaning the Canopy and Bench

Step 1 Remove the acrylic shields and

lamps as described in Lamp and Acrylic Replacement.

Step 2 With a soft cloth, wipe the entire

length of each lamp.

Step 3 Clean both sides of the acrylic

shields with a non-ammonia disinfectant cleaner.

Step 4 Wipe the reflectors with a clean

damp cloth.

Step 5 Reinstall the lamps and acrylic

shields.

Step 6 Clean or replace air filters on top

of ballast tray and under bench (see Final Adjustments). Replace with 10” x 24” x 1” furnace filters.

Mechanical Inspection

Your tanning bed has been built for years of service. To ensure trouble-free operation throughout its life, inspect the unit’s mechanical integrity every 400-500 hours of use.

• Inspect the unit’s fasteners verifying that all are firmly in place.

• Inspect lift springs for signs of wear. Adjust for proper lift if needed. See Final Adjustments.

• Inspect the AC power cord and its connections.

• Inspect the acrylic. Broken, cracked or badly scratched acrylics should be immediately replaced.

• Check damper operation. The damper limits the canopy’s movement speed. Replace if canopy raises and lowers too quickly.

WARNING

Shock hazard. Disconnect power before removing

any protective covers.

Care and Maintenance - Lamp and Acrylic Replacement

Lamp and Acrylic Replacement

Introduction

To be assured of maximum tanning effectiveness, change 100W lamps after approximately 800-1000 hours of use. Change 160W lamps after 600-800 hours of use. Tanning will continue after this time but at a slower rate. To ensure trouble-free operation of your sunbed, replace the lamp starters whenever the lamps are replaced.

Maintenance Height Feature

The SOLARIS® offers a convenience feature when maintenance must be performed. Behind the front access panel is a release handle (see Final Adjustments). With the canopy open, pull this handle and the canopy will raise to its maintenance position, allowing easier access to lamps, etc. When finished, simply close the canopy to return to normal operation.

WARNING

Shock hazard. Disconnect power before removing

any protective covers.

Opening/Replacing Acrylic Shields

Refer to the illustration on the next page while reading this instruction. The acrylic shields in the bench and canopy are secured in place with quarter turn latches along the front edge. Use a flat-bladed screwdriver or coin to turn the latches a quarter turn to open the acrylic. The aluminum frame around the acrylic offers support as well as allowing the acrylic to hinge open without removing it from the bed. On the inside of the bench, along the front, are two supports for the bench acrylic. Release them from their clips and swing up to hold the acrylic open. You may remove the acrylics by lifting them out of the hinge channel along the back edge.

When you are finished, simply reverse the above directions to secure the acrylic shields.

Removing/Replacing Lamps

After opening the acrylic shield, replace lamps as follows.

Step 1 Grasp the lamp at one end and

at the middle and turn the lamp one quarter turn. Gently remove the lamp from its holders.

Step 2 Reinstall the lamp by inserting

the pins located on the ends of the lamp into the slots on top of the lamp holders and turn the lamp a quarter turn. It should click in place.

Recommended Replacement Lamps

We recommend using the lamps specified below. Use of uncertified lamps is a violation of Federal regulations and will void your warranty. These lamps have an average life of 600-800 hours of effective tanning use. Lamps used longer than that begin to lose their effectiveness even though they continue to light.

Recommended Replacement Acrylics

Acrylics vary greatly over time in their ability to effectively transmit UV light. Acrylics sold by ETS have been life tested to ensure proper transmission throughout their useful life.

ONLY THE FOLLOWING LAMPS HAVE BEEN CERTIFIED FOR USE IN THIS EQUIPMENT:

Bench lamps

BRONZING SUN™ PLUS Wolff® Model BSP 71-T12-100WR BI-PIN

Canopy lamps

Velocity® VS-R™ Wolff® Model VEL71-T12-160W VS-R Bi-Pin

Removing/Replacing Face Tanner Lamps

After removing the canopy acrylic shield, replace the face tanner lamps as follows:

Step 1 Support the face tanner assembly

with your hand while unscrewing the two retaining screws. The face tanner glass casing will swing downward.

Step 2 The lamp can now be

exchanged. The lamp holders are equipped with spring contacts which enable the lamp to be removed easily. Remove the old lamp and discard. Install the new lamp, using a clean cloth or paper towel. Ensure that the lamp is firmly seated in the lamp holders.

Note! Never take hold of the lamp such that your fingers are in contact with the lamp glass. Finger oils will greatly reduce the lamp’s operational life.

Step 3 Gently close the face tanner

glass casing and lock it closed with the screws. Ensure that the screws firmly secure the glass casing.

RETAINING

SCREWS

DANGER

Unfiltered light from face tanner can cause severe burns. Never turn sunbed on while face tanner is disassembled or when glass filters are removed. Immediately discontinue use of this equipment if face tanner glass is broken or any unfiltered light can be seen escaping face tanner assembly.

Problem Solution

Sunbed not tanning

Lamps fail to light and timer display is blank

The last minute of tanning time does not count down from 59 seconds, but some time less than 59 seconds

One or more lamps fail to light

The face tanners will not come on

The canopy will not stay up / The canopy will not stay down

My canopy opens and closes too fast (slamming, not enough resistance)

I forgot what address, or “id”, I set my sunbed to

1. Clean sunbed, see Thorough Periodic Cleaning.

2. Ensure supply voltage is between 208 and 230V AC.

3. Replace lamps if lamp hours are greater than 800hrs.

4. Replace acrylic.

1. Make sure the unit is connected to a power source.

2. Check source of AC power. Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse.

If the timer button has been pressed to decrease tanning time during the session, the time expired in the current minute is subtracted from the last minute.

1. Check that lamp is installed correctly.

2. Switch unlit lamp with a lamp that lights, if new lamp lights and old lamp still does not, replace old lamp.

1. Face tanner operation is initially delayed by 5 seconds.

2. Face tanners will not relight until cooled (around 1 minute).

3. Replace face tanner lamp, see Removing/Replacing Face Tanner Lamps.

Your sunbed uses a smooth gliding spring lift system to raise the canopy. This lift system may need to be adjusted slightly from time to time. See Final Adjustments for proper adjustment procedures. The canopy should raise easily as well as rest fully closed.

Your sunbed utilizes a damper which limits the canopy’s movement speed. This also serves as a safety device in case of spring lift failure as the canopy will not crash down. Replace the damper on back of unit.

By holding the body fan button for 3 seconds the timer display will briefly display three numbers; the installed timer software version, a factory set timer code and then the sunbed’s “id” number.

Troubleshooting

Problem Solution

My bed is connected to a T-Max® remote system but I am having trouble getting into “id” mode

My bed, connected to a T-Max® Manager, did not display “dL” but does indicate:

“0”

a tanning time and the lamps have come on a tanning time but the lamps have not come on

When auto-addressing the first bed does not register an “id”

When using a T-Max® 1A my sunbed won’t function properly

My salon suffers frequent, short power outages and clients complain about losing session time

You have probably attempted to connect your sunbed to the remote system already. Disconnect the remote plug(s) from the ports at the back of the sunbed, wait 90 seconds and try again.

1. Remote device has not been set.

2. The sunbed has not been connected to the remote system, see Remote Connections.

1. Delay time of T-Max® Manager has not been set.

2. Delay time has expired and session has begun. Auto start function of T-Max® Manager has been turned off. Press the timer button to turn on lamps.

When using the auto address feature of the T-Max® Manager you must wait 10 seconds from the time you start the auto address function before addressing the first bed.

SunStar® Bypass plugs or terminator plugs may be needed if the T-Max® 1A and the sunbed are over 100 feet apart. Install the plugs in the open remote port in the sunbed and the TMax® 1A.

If you have a T-Max® Manager, changing parameter 23 from “0” to “1” will allow the tanning bed to remember how much time was left when power goes out and resume its session after power is restored. Consult your T-Max® Manager manual for information on setting parameters.
