appliance.
Intended use
This Philips appliance EnergyUp Intense Blue is intended to make people
feel more energetic, to adjust circadian rhythms and to provide relief from
the winter blues.
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. This Philips appliance 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 star ts 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 this Philips appliance EnergyUp Intense Blue at the right
time of day can help you establish and reinforce regular sleep patterns.

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
Knowing at what time to use the appliance 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
appliance 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 appliance 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 appliance very quickly
after you switch it on.
Many people experience a natural dip in the afternoon. This Philips
appliance 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.
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 appliance in the evening.
- 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 appliance 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 appliance 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 appliance 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 appliance. 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 appliance 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 appliance 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 appliance 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, tr y 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
appliance in the morning for a few days.
Light intensity
Use the appliance in addition to the normal room lighting. This Philips
appliance is more comfortable to use in a well-lit room. Adjust the
brightness to a comfortable level. Allow a few minutes for your eyes to
get used to the bright light. If the highest setting is too bright for you, start
using the appliance at a lower setting. Increase the light intensity if you feel
no effect after a week.
