FAQs
How far away should I position the lamp?
Generally, position the lamp at a distance of approximately 12-16 inches (30-40 cm) from the treatment area. Adjust based on comfort and heat sensation. Always ensure a safe distance to prevent burns.
How long should I use the Beurer IL11 for?
Typical treatment sessions range from 10 to 15 minutes. It is recommended to consult your user manual or a healthcare professional for specific guidance based on your needs.
Can I use this if I have sensitive skin?
Use with caution. Sensitive skin may be more prone to burns. Start with a longer distance and shorter duration, and monitor your skin closely. Consult a doctor if you have concerns.
What type of bulb does it use?
The Beurer IL11 uses a standard infrared heat lamp bulb. Please refer to the product manual for the exact specifications and wattage.
Can I use this on my face?
It is generally not recommended for direct facial application due to the risk of burns and potential damage to the eyes. Use only on body areas as directed in the manual.
Is it safe to use if I have diabetes?
Individuals with diabetes or other conditions that affect sensation should consult their doctor before using infrared heat therapy, as impaired sensation can increase the risk of burns.
How do I clean the lamp?
Ensure the lamp is unplugged and completely cool. Wipe the exterior with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or immerse in water.
Troubleshooting
Lamp does not turn on
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check if the bulb is properly seated (allow to cool first). If problems persist, the bulb may need replacement.
Heat feels too intense or causes discomfort
Increase the distance between the lamp and your body. Reduce the duration of use. Ensure your skin is clean and free of lotions. If discomfort continues, discontinue use.
Bulb burns out quickly
Ensure the lamp is not being used for excessively long periods continuously. Check that the bulb is the correct wattage and type as specified by the manufacturer. Avoid moving the lamp while it is hot.
