DANGER – ULTRAVIOLET RADIATION
- Follow instructions.
- Avoid overexposure. As with natural sunlight, overexposure can cause eye and
skin injury and allergic reactions.
REPEATED EXPOSURE MAY CAUSE
PREMATURE AGING OF THE SKIN AND
SKIN CANCER.
- Wear protective eyewear.
FAILURE TO USE PROTECTIVE EYEWEAR
MAY RESULT IN SEVERE BURNS OR
LONG-TERM INJURY TO THE EYES.
- Medications or cosmetics may increase your sensitivity to the ultraviolet radiation.
Consult a physician before using sunlamp or tanning equipment if you are using
medication or have a history of skin problems or believe yourself to be especially
sensitive to sunlight.
- If you do not tan in the sun, you are unlikely to tan from the use of this product.
