Read this user manual carefully before using this Philips
energy light.
Intended use
Philips EnergyUp Intense Blue is intended to make people feel more
energetic, to adjust circadian rhythms and to provide relief from the
winter blues. Medical intended use of this appliance is to treat winter
depression or SAD (seasonal affective disorder). Treatment of SAD must
always take place under medical supervision.
Light - a natural energiser
Today’s busy modern lifestyles demand peak performance all day long.
Even the ttest person suffers energy dips, particularly when deprived of
natural daylight, such as in an ofce in winter. Daylight is essential to wellbeing, keeping t and feeling energised throughout the day – just like
healthy nutrition and regular exercise. Philips EnergyUp Intense Blue
mimics the natural energising power of daylight on a bright sunny day. It
stimulates special receptors in the eye to trigger the body’s natural
response to sunlight. This helps you to ght energy dips, to feel more
energetic, active and alert, and to improve your mood.
Circadian rhythms and sleep patterns
The human body uses light cues, such as those provided by the sun, to
time certain internal functions. Properly timed rhythms regulate energy,
mood, sleep, appetite and digestion. These daily internal cycles, called
circadian rhythms, sometimes fall out of sync with nature, which can have
impact on our well-being. Nature’s cues no longer govern our modern
lifestyle. Our day no longer starts at sunrise and ends at sunset, working
days are getting longer, and many people work in shifts. Moreover,
our activities often extend well into the night. Many people tend to get
too little sleep during the week, which diminishes their energy levels
during the day. Using Philips EnergyUp Intense Blue at the right time of
day can help you establish and reinforce regular sleep patterns.
ENGLISH 7
Light via eyes
Research shows that a special photoreceptor in our eyes is responsible
for regulating our energy, mood and sleep/wake cycles. This receptor
responds mostly to the blue light of the summer sky. We do not get much
of this light in autumn and winter. Most indoor light does not provide
enough of this essential colour. This appliance helps you to be at your best
by delivering the wavelength, colour and intensity of light to which our
body responds most efciently.
Winter blues
Lack of light during the darker winter months causes many people to
experience a noticeable drop in energy level and low spirits as autumn
sets in. These symptoms, known as ‘winter blues’, may cause you to feel
low, listless and fatigued for weeks or even months. This affects both
personal performance and mood. Blue light therapy is a successful
method to ght these winter blues symptoms. It provides your body with
summer vitality throughout the dark winter months.

Using the EnergyUp
When to use the EnergyUp
Knowing at what time to use the Philips EnergyUp is essential. It may
mean the difference between feeling better in a few days instead of
weeks and between experiencing benets or experiencing none.
Follow these guidelines to understand how light affects us and when to
use the Philips EnergyUp for the best results.
Duration
Most people experience benets if they use the appliance 20 to
30 minutes each day. It is safe to use the Philips EnergyUp longer,
provided you do so at the correct time of day. You may notice some
energising effects of light immediately. Other effects become noticeable
after several days of regular use.
ENGLISH12
Indoor life and energy dips
If you spend a lot of time indoors with little daylight and articial light,
you can experience the energising effects of the Philips EnergyUp very
quickly after you switch it on. You can also use the appliance as an extra
source of light throughout the day (but not in the evening or at night)
to compensate for the lack of natural daylight.
Many people experience a natural dip in the afternoon.
The Philips EnergyUp can help you counteract this dip.
Winter blues
If you experience lower energy levels, an increased need for sleep, and a
lower mood in the dark season compared to spring and summer, use the
energy light for 20-30 minutes a day. Preferably use it in the morning to
help you start the day. You may also use it later during the day, but do not
use it in the last few hours before bedtime. If you do, the light could delay
your sleep and make you even less energetic the next day.
Winter depression
If your seasonal mood swings are more severe and you suffer from
depression, consult a therapist and only use light therapy under
supervision. Your therapist may prescribe 30 minutes of treatment per day
at level 1 or 2 over several weeks.
Sleep patterns
- Morning persons tend to wake up early in the morning and usually
nd it difcult to stay awake in the evening. If you want to get more
out of your evening, avoid bright light directly after waking up and use
the Philips EnergyUp in the evening close to bedtime.
- Evening persons nd it difcult to get up in the morning and are full
of energy in the evening. If this applies to you, you need morning light.
Use the Philips EnergyUp within the rst 1-2 hours after you get out
of bed. Avoid bright light or blue-rich light in the last 4 hours before
bedtime. Daily use of the Philips EnergyUp in the morning may help
you establish a regular sleep pattern that allows you to function
better in the morning.
Note: If your desired wake-up time is less than six hours after your normal
bedtime, do not use the Philips EnergyUp immediately after you wake up.
This could give your body a signal that is opposite to the one intended.

Jet lag
Rapidly travelling across several time zones puts your internal body clock
out of sync with the new external time. This not only causes sleeping
problems, but also inuences your mood and energy level. If you stay for
more than a few days in the other time zone, you may want to shift your
body clock to the new time zone. This will help you sleep better and be
more alert and energetic when you need to. One of the best strategies
to deal with jet lag is to start shifting your body clock and sleep times
several days before you leave.
Travelling east
When you travel east , you have to advance your sleep time by a number
of hours that equals the time zones you cross. You can shift your body
clock forwards in steps of one hour a day. The number of time zones you
cross determines how many days before departure you have to start
using the Philips EnergyUp. Use the appliance for 30 minutes after you

wake up. Avoid bright light in the evening and go to bed early. When you
arrive at your destination, avoid bright light during your normal sleep
period. Expose yourself to bright light at the end of this period to
advance your body clock further to the local time.
Before your return ight, use the Philips EnergyUp late in the evening for
a couple of days. On the last night of the trip, try to stay up and use the
appliance as late as possible after midnight. On the day of the ight, avoid
any bright light in the morning.
Travelling west
Since most people’s body clocks adjust more easily to later time zones,
you only have to use the Philips EnergyUp for one day before you travel
across four time zones. Add an additional preparation day for each three
additional time zones. You do not have to use the Philips EnergyUp for
more than three days, even on longer westbound trips. Use the appliance
for 30–40 minutes late in the evening. Start two or three days before you
leave. Use the appliance two hours later the following nights.
When you arrive at your destination, try to stay awake until bedtime and
avoid bright evening light (wear sunglasses) for the rst few days. Before
you travel home, avoid any bright afternoon and evening light. Use the
Philips EnergyUp in the morning for a few days.
Light intensity
Use the Philips EnergyUp in addition to the normal room lighting.
The Philips EnergyUp is more comfortable to use in a well-lit room.

Introduktion
Tillykke med dit køb, og velkommen til Philips! For at få fuldt udbytte af
den support, Philips tilbyder, skal du registrere dit produkt på
www.philips.com/welcome.
Læs denne brugervejledning omhyggeligt igennem,
før du bruger dette energilys fra Philips.
Beregnet anvendelse
Philips EnergyUp Intense Blue skal få folk til at føle sig mere energiske,
tilpasse deres døgnrytme og lindre eventuel vintertræthed. Dette
apparats medicinske anvendelsesformål er at behandle vinterdepression
eller SAD (sæsonmæssige affektive lidelser). Behandling af SAD skal altid
foregå under lægetilsyn.
Lys - et naturligt energitilskud
Nutidens travle, moderne livsstil kræver optimal ydeevne dagen lang.
Selv de stærkeste personer lider af mangel på energi, særligt når de
fratages det naturlige dagslys, f.eks. på et kontor om vinteren. Dagslys er
vigtigt for vores velbendende, så vi kan holde os i form og føle os fulde
af energi hele dagen – på samme måde som sund ernæring og
regelmæssig motion. Philips EnergyUp Intense Blue efterligner dagslysets
naturlige, energiskabende kraft på en klar solskinsdag. Den stimulerer
specielle receptorer i øjnene og udløser kroppens naturlige reaktion på
sollys. Dette hjælper dig med at bekæmpe manglen på energi og føle dig
mere energisk, aktiv og vågen og med at forbedre dit humør.
Døgnrytmer og søvnmønstre
Menneskets krop bruger lysets signaler, f.eks. dem, der udsendes af solen,
til at igangsætte bestemte, indre funktioner. Korrekt timede rytmer
regulerer energi, stemning, søvn, appetit og fordøjelse. Disse daglige,
indre cyklusser, også kaldet døgnrytmer, falder nogle gange uden for
synkroniseringen med naturen, og det kan få indydelse på vores
velbendende. Naturens signaler styrer ikke længere vores moderne
livsstil. Vores dag starter ikke længere ved solopgang og slutter ved
solnedgang, arbejdsdagene bliver længere, og mange arbejder på
skiftehold. Desuden foregår vores aktiviteter ofte langt ud på natten.
DANSK 25
Mange har tendens til at få for lidt søvn i løbet af ugen, og det mindsker
deres energiniveau om dagen. Hvis Philips EnergyUp Intense Blue
anvendes på det rigtige tidspunkt af dagen, kan den hjælpe dig med at
oprette og forstærke dine regelmæssige søvnmønstre.
Lys via øjnene
Forskningen viser, at en særlig fotoreceptor (lysmodtager) i vores øjne er
ansvarlig for reguleringen af vores energi, stemning og søvn-/
vågencyklusser. Denne receptor reagerer for det meste på det blå lys fra
sommerhimlen. Vi får ikke meget af dette lys om efteråret og vinteren.
De este indendørslys giver ikke tilstrækkeligt af denne altafgørende farve.
Apparatet hjælper dig til være på toppen ved at levere den bølgelængde,
farve og lysintensitet, som vores krop reagerer mest effektivt på.
Vintertræthed
Mangel på lys i de mørkere vintermåneder får mange til at opleve et
mærkbart fald i energiniveauet og nedtrykthed, når efteråret sætter ind.
Disse symptomer, også kendt som “vinter træthed”, får dig muligvis til at
føle dig nedtrykt, ugidelig og træt i ere uger eller måske måneder.
Dette har indydelse på din personlige ydeevne og dit humør.
Blå lysterapi er en virkningsfuld metode til at bekæmpe disse symptomer
på vintertræthed. Den forsyner kroppen med sommerens vitalitet
gennem de mørke vintermåneder.

Elektromagnetisk kompatibilitet (EMC)
Bærbart og mobilt radiofrekvenskommunikationsudstyr, som f.eks.
mobiltelefoner, trådløse telefoner og deres basestationer, walkie-talkier og
trådløse hjemmenetværksenheder (routere), kan påvirke Philips EnergyUp.
De bør derfor ikke anvendes i nærheden af EnergyUp. Hvis dette ikke kan
undgås, skal EnergyUp observeres for at bekræfte normal drift. Hvis der
observeres unormal funktion (f.eks. tab af funktionalitet, ujævn belysning,
immer), kan yderligere foranstaltninger være nødvendige, f.eks.
omlægning af radiofrekvenskommunikationsudstyret eller EnergyUp.
Generelt

ved med at lyse konstant grønt i 1 time (g. 4).
Bemærk: Når batteriet er fuldt opladet, indeholder det energi til ca. 1 times
brug ved fuld styrke.
Brug af EnergyUp
Hvornår bør man bruge EnergyUp?
Det er vigtigt at vide, på hvilket tidspunkt man skal bruge Philips
EnergyUp. Det kan udgøre forskellen mellem at være bedre tilpas nogle få
dage i stedet for nogle uger og mellem at opleve positive virkninger eller
slet ikke at opnå nogen virkning. Følg disse anvisninger for at forstå,
hvordan lys påvirker os, og hvornår man skal bruge Philips EnergyUp for
at opnå de bedste resultater.
Varighed
Mange oplever positive virkninger, hvis de bruger apparatet 20 til
30 minutter hver dag. Det er sikkert at anvende Philips EnergyUp i
længere tid, forudsat at du gør det på det rigtige tidspunkt på dagen.
Du vil måske opleve nogle energigivende virkninger ved lyset med det
samme. Andre virkninger bliver først mærkbare efter ere dages
regelmæssig brug.

Livet indenfor og mangel på energi
Hvis du bruger en masse tid indendørs med lidt dagslys og kunstigt lys,
kan du opleve den energigivende effekt ved Philips EnergyUp meget
hurtigt, efter at du tænder den. Du kan også bruge apparatet som en
ekstra lyskilde i løbet af dagen (men ikke om aftenen eller om natten)
for at kompensere for det manglende, naturlige dagslys.
Mange oplever et naturligt dyk om eftermiddagen. Philips EnergyUp kan
hjælpe dig med at modvirke dette dyk.
Vintertræthed
Hvis du oplever at have et lavere energiniveau, et øget behov for søvn og
et dårligere humør i den mørke tid sammenlignet med forår og sommer,
kan du bruge energilyset i 20-30 minutter om dagen. Det anbefales at
bruge den om morgenen som en hjælp til at begynde dagen. Du kan også
bruge den senere på dagen, men brug den ikke de sidste par timer, før du
går i seng. Hvis du gør det, vil lyset kunne udsætte din søvn og således
give dig mindre energi dagen efter.
Vinterdepression
Hvis dine årstidsbestemte stemningsudsving er kraftigere, og du lider af
depression, skal du konsultere en terapeut og kun bruge lysterapi under
vejledning. Din terapeut kan muligvis ordinere 30 minutters behandling pr.
dag ved niveau 1 eller 2 over en periode på ere uger.
Søvnmønstre
- Morgenmennesker har tendens til at vågne tidligt om morgenen og
har normalt vanskeligt ved at holde sig vågne om aftenen. Hvis du vil
have mere ud af din aften, skal du undgå stærkt lys, lige efter du vågner,
og bruge Philips EnergyUp om aftenen, lige inden du går i seng.
- Aftenmennesker har svært ved at komme op om morgenen og er
fulde af energi om aftenen. Hvis dette gælder for dig, har du brug for
morgenlys. Brug Philips EnergyUp i de første 1-2 timer, efter du er
stået op. Undgå stærkt lys eller meget blåt lys i de sidste 4 timer, inden
du går i seng. Daglig brug af Philips EnergyUp om morgenen kan
hjælpe dig med at få et regelmæssigt søvnmønster, der giver dig
mulighed for at fungere bedre om morgenen.
