5.1 Getting started:
1. Take the appliance along with the other components of the DERMA PERFECT out of its
box.
2. Check that the disposable Lamp is correctly inserted at the end of the appliance.
3. Plug the Adaptor power cord into the DERMA PERFECT appliance’s socket (no.21 p. 9).
4. Plug in the Adaptor to a mains socket: the ”stand-by” mode indicator LED comes on: your
DERMA PERFECT appliance is now ready for use.
Your skin must be shaven, clean, dry and free of any powder or deodorant residue.
5. Press the Start button. The Power Light will come on and you will hear a normal ventilation
sound.
6. About 4 seconds after you press the Start button, the indicator LEDs will come on and stay
on. The appliance starts off automatically on minimum power.
The appliance is now ready to emit its first pulse.
7. If you want to increase or reduce the power, press either the “+” or “- “ on the power
selector until you reach the power level you require (see details on power level in chapter
5.3 page 13).
8. Press the appliance window up against the area of skin to be treated so as to achieve
optimal contact.
The Skin Contact Detector will then check that the appliance window is in complete contact
with the skin. The indicator LEDs will then start flashing to indicate that the appliance is
ready to emit the pulsed light.
9. Press on the trigger.
The system will also check the colour of the skin before activating the pulsed light. If the
skin colour is sufficiently fair for a safe application, the appliance will then emit a pulse
on to the skin and the Indicator LEDs will go out.
You will see a light flash and, simultaneously, you will hear a slight ‘beep’ at each pulse,
which is normal. It is possible that you may feel a slightly hot and tingling sensation.
Your DERMA PERFECT appliance will recharge immediately between each pulse. After
4 seconds, the Indicator LEDs will come on again.
If you don’t see any light pulse and the indicator LEDs start flashing green and orange,
this means that the colour of your skin, measured by the Skin Colour Detector, is too
dark for a safe application. If you want to use the appliance again, but on a lighter area,
you must switch it off and then switch it back on again, otherwise it will remain locked
in safety mode (flashing green and orange).
