afety Information

LABELING NOTICE: Labels are affixed on all systems to inform the user of possible dangers. Regulations are stated in 21 CFR, Section

1040.20, and require that all products manufactured after September 8, 1986 which use sunlamps must display the following:

Ultraviolet radiation. Follow instructions. Avoid overexposure. As with natural sunlight, overexposure can cause

DANGER

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 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) between your
body and canopy clear plastic panel, otherwise overexposure may occur. Minimum use distance from face tanner (if equipped) is 4 inch­es (10.2 centimeters). 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.

RECOMMENDED EXPOSURE TIMES IN MINUTES MAXIMUM EXPOSURE TIME IS 20 MINUTES

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 1 pouce (2,5 centimètres) entre le corps et le panneau de plastique transparent de la partie supérieure, afin d’éviter une exposi­tion excessive. La distance minimale d’usage de l’appareil de bronzage pour le visage (si muni) est de 4 pouces (10,2 centimétres). 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.

TEMPS D’EXPOSITION RECOMMANDÉ EN MINUTES LE TEMPS D’EXPOSITION MAXIMAL EST DE 20 MINUTES

Type de peau:

I Peau sensible (brûle facilement et ne bronze pas) NON RECOMMANDÉ
II Peau claire (brûle facilement et bronze très peu) 4 8 12 16 20
III Peau normale (brûle et bronze de façon modérée) 610152020
IV Peau foncée (brûle très peu, bronze plus facilement que la moyenne) 812162020

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.

Planning. Again, a professional electrician
is recommended. The Remote Control
Bypass plug is already installed in one of
the remote control ports as shown. Your
sunbed will not operate without the
Remote Control Bypass plug or a remote
system connected. Remove the protective
film from the acrylic shields. Your equip­ment is now ready for use.

NOTE: Your sunbed is designed to accept
an input from a remote control device.
The remote control is optional. If you
plan on using a remote system refer to
Remote Connections.

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. A bypass plug is needed only
when your sunbed is operated without a
remote system connected.

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. Follow the appropriate instructions for
your system type.

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® AP-900 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 page to see
the many different scenarios for hooking up
your salon. If you need further assistance, call
T-Max® directly at [phone].

27964-01A

13

Installation - Remote Connections

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

Connect one AP-900 (with Power
Injector) to the Manager and one
AP-900 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
an AP-900 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 man-
ually. 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
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.

have a chip

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 AP-900 (with Power Injector) to the T-Max® 3A and one
AP-900 to the tanning bed.

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

Connect one AP-900 (with Power
Injector) to the Manager and one
AP-900 to a wireless ready tanning bed.
The rest of the salon may be “daisy­chained” together and connected to the
wireless equipped tanning bed, eliminating
the need to wire the Manager to the tanning
beds.

27964-01A

NOTE: A T-Max® 1A with a

“master” chip can be substituted

for a 3A.

14

Installation - Remote Connections

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
AP-900 (with Power Injector) to the Manager
and one AP-900 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
back of the canopy 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.

15

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 back of the canopy and
either port on the back of
the T-Max® 1A or 3A.

27964-01A

Installation - Remote Connections

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”.

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.

27964-01A

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.

Before You Tan

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

• Your skin should be free of cosmetics,
tanning 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.

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.

DANGER

Shock hazard.
Do not operate this device near

water or while you are wet.

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.

RECOMMENDED EXPOSURE TIMES IN MINUTES MAXIMUM EXPOSURE TIME IS 20 MINUTES

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 will reduce
the tanning effectiveness of the bed. When
a dust buildup is observed, it is necessary to
thoroughly clean the inside of the bench
and canopy.

WARNING

Shock hazard.
Disconnect power before removing

any protective covers.

Cleaning the Canopy and Bench

Step 1 Remove the acrylic shields and

27964-01A

lamps as described in Lamp and
Acrylic Replacement.

Step 2 With a soft cloth, wipe the entire

length of each lamp to remove
any film buildup.

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 Re-install the lamps and acrylic

shields.

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 gas springs for signs of wear.
Gas springs that will not hold the
canopy in the full open position when
raised should be immediately replaced.
See Troubleshooting.

• Inspect the AC power cord and its
connections.

• Inspect the acrylic. Broken, cracked

badly scratched acrylics should be
immediately replaced.

Care and Maintenance - Lamp and Acrylic Replacement

Lamp and Acrylic Replacement

Introduction

To be assured of maximum tanning effec­tiveness, change lamps after approximate­ly 800-1000 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.

WARNING

Shock hazard.
Disconnect power before servicing.

Removing/Replacing Acrylic Shield

The acrylic shield in the bench and
canopy are secured in place by hinged
profiles which run the length of the bed,
both front and back. Simply pry up on the
inside edge of the profile, starting at the
center of the bed
ing action (see figure at right). Continue to
pry up the profile across its entire length
until it swings back freely. Repeat for the
other profile. The long edges of the acrylic
shields are now exposed.

, until it releases its latch-

Standing at the front of the unit, lift the
exposed edge of the acrylic slightly and
carefully begin sliding it toward you until
it is removed from the sunbed. This might
be easier with the help of another person.

After changing the lamps, replace the
acrylic shield by carefully aligning it with
the channels on the ends of the sunbed
and sliding it into place. Close the hinged
profile by pushing it back into place until
it snaps tight.

CAUTION

Be careful. The edges of the acrylic shield
may be sharp.

21

27964-01A

Care and Maintenance - Lamp and Acrylic Replacement

Removing/Replacing Lamps

After removing 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 800-1000 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.

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

Velocity® Wolff® Model VEL 71-T12-100W

Heraeus E400 HPT, Philips Model HPA 400/30s or CosmoTech Model 23045

Care and Maintenance - Lamp and Acrylic Replacement

Removing/Replacing Face Tanner
Lamp (if equipped)

After removing the canopy acrylic shield,
replace the face tanner lamp 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.

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.
