Introduction

Philips offers, register your product at www.philips.com/welcome.

This appliance helps you wake up feeling fitter and more energetic. It creates a summer dawn experience that makes awakening and getting up easier.The light intensity slowly increases to the chosen level during 30 minutes. Light in the morning increases the production of the cortisol hormone that makes you feel more energetic when you wake up.You can have the appliance wake you up by light only or by light and sound.The appliance can also be used as a reading lamp.

Light and the biological clock

Exposure to light regulates the biological clock that controls the body’s circadian rhythms.The melatonin level rises in the evening, preparing our body for sleep and lowering the core body temperature.The light in the morning stimulates the secretion of the hormone cortisol, which makes us awake and alert. Optimally, the circadian rhythms are in sync with our sleep-wake rhythm. Disturbed sleep and circadian rhythms can severely impact our health, performance and productivity.

In autumn and winter, when the days are shorter and darker, many people experience tiredness and need more sleep. Lack of energy and trouble to get up in the morning are common symptoms of the winter blues. Other symptoms may be unexpected mood changes, concentration problems and a craving for food rich in fattening carbohydrates. Some people may even develop a serious depression (seasonal affective disorder or SAD), which disappears when spring comes.

The effects of dawn simulation

The Philips Wake-up Light gently prepares your body for waking up during the last half hour of sleep. In the early morning hours our eyes are more sensitive to light than when we are awake.

During that period the relatively low light levels of a simulated natural sunrise elevate the cortisol level shortly after awakening. Clinical studies have shown that regular use of a dawn simulator can alleviate even the severest symptoms of the winter blues, improving productivity and concentration.

In addition, people who use the Wake-up Light wake up more easily, have a better overall mood in the morning and feel more energetic.With the Philips Wake-up Light, you can set the light level that corresponds to your light sensitivity for optimum dawn simulation.

-Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

-Regularly remove dust from the inside of the appliance with a dry cloth, as accumulated dust close to a powerful lamp presents a potential fire hazard. See chapter ‘Cleaning and maintenance’ for more details.

Caution

-Do not subject the appliance to heavy shocks.

-Place the appliance on a stable, level surface and make sure there is at least 15cm free space around it and 40cm above it to prevent overheating. (Fig. 3)

-Do not use the appliance at room temperatures lower than 10°C or higher than 35°C.

-Make sure the vents in the base and on top of the appliance remain open during use.

- Let the appliance cool down for approx. 15 minutes before you clean or store it.

English

-Do not use this appliance as a means to reduce your hours of sleep.The purpose of this

appliance is to help you wake up more easily. It does not diminish your need for sleep.

-Always replace the lamp with a Philips 75W E27 SOFTONE softwhite 230VT55 (HF3451) or a

Philips 100W E27 SOFTONE softwhite 230VT55 lamp (HF3462/HF3461).

-The appliance has no on/off switch.To disconnect the appliance from the mains, remove the plug from the wall socket.

-This appliance is only intended for household use, including similar use like in hotels.

General

-The appliance has been fitted with an automatic protection against overheating. If the appliance is insufficiently cooled (e.g. because the vents are covered), the appliance switches off automatically. Remove the cause of overheating, unplug the appliance and let it cool down for approx. 20 minutes.Then switch the appliance back on by plugging it in again.

-We advise you to set the light intensity for waking up to a setting between 9 and 20 (for the

HF3451 with 75W lamp) or between 7 and 15 (for the HF3462/HF3461 with 100W lamp).

These settings correspond to light intensity levels of 100 to 300 lux.The correct setting depends on your light sensitivity and will have to be determined by yourself. It is possible to select a higher or lower setting. See chapter ‘Using the appliance’ for more details. If light level 20 of the HF3451 is not high enough, we advise you to move the appliance closer to the bed.

-If you share a bedroom with someone else, this person may unintentionally wake up from the light of the appliance, even though this person is further removed from the appliance.This phenomenon is the result of differences in light sensitivity between people.

-If you start having trouble waking up again, this is possibly due to a decrease in the lamp’s light output that occurs after some time. In that case, you can increase the light level or replace the lamp.

-If the appliance is used in an industrial area and/or near a power station, it may occur that, under certain circumstances, the lamp goes off after it has come on.This does not have an adverse or harmful effect on the safe functioning of the appliance the next time it is used.
