Welcome
Welcome to the world of Philips Lumea! You are only a few weeks away from
silky-smooth skin.
Lumea uses Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology, known as one of the most
effective methods to continuously prevent hair growth. In close collaboration
with expert scientists and dermatologists, we adapted this light-based
technology, originally used in professional beauty salons, for easy and effective
use in the comfort of your home. Lumea is gentle and offers convenient and
effective treatment at a light intensity that you find comfortable. Unwanted
hairs are finally a thing of the past.
Lumea can be used on the body and on the female face (below the cheekbone).

Important safety instructions
Warnings
Please read and follow these instructions to optimize the use of the device and
prevent/minimize the risk of injury, skin reactions and side effects.
-Before you use Lumea, you should clean your skin and make sure it is
hair‑free, entirely dry and free from any lotion or gel.
-Keep the device and the adapter dry.
-The device is not washable. Never immerse the device in water and do not
rinse it under the tap.
-Water and electricity are a dangerous combination. Do not use this device in
wet surroundings (e.g. near a filled bath, a running shower or a filled
swimming pool). Moisture can damage the device and lead to a potential
safety hazard.
-Always check the device before you use it. Do not use the device or adapter
if it is damaged. Always replace a damaged part with one of the original
type.
-If the device or adapter is broken or damaged, do not touch any inner part
to avoid electric shock.
-Do not use the device if the UV filter of the light exit window and/or
attachment is broken, as safe operation cannot be guaranteed under these
circumstances.
-Do not attempt to open or repair your device. Opening Philips Lumea may
expose you to dangerous electrical components and to pulsed light energy,
either of which may cause bodily and/or eye injury.
-Always return the device to a service center authorized by Philips for
examination or repair. Repair by unqualified people could cause an
extremelyhazardous situation for the user.
10 English
-No modification of this equipment is allowed. Do not modify, override or cut
off any part of the device (e.g. adapter or the cord), as this causes a
hazardous situation.
-Do not look at the flash while using the device. Use the device in a well-lit
room so that the light is less glaring to your eyes. While not necessary for
safety, you may wear sunglasses or goggles for your convenience if you find
the light uncomfortable or too bright.
-Do not flash the same spot multiple times during a treatment. The surface of
the attachment should overlap the previous spot to make sure you flash the
complete skin area, but treating the same area multiple times does not
increase efficacy.
-For hygienic reasons, the device should only be used by one person.
-Do not use hair removal creams in the area (to be) treated with the device,
as chemicals may cause skin reactions.
-Do not use any pencil or pen to mark the areas to be treated. This may cause
burns on your skin.
-The device can be stored at a temperature between -25°C and 70°C. Use
the device at a temperature between 5°C and 35°C. The device will not
work properly outside of this temperature range. This may cause burns on
your skin.
-Hair removal by intense pulsed light sources can cause increased hair growth
in some individuals. Based upon currently available data, the highest risk
groups for this response are females of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and
South Asian heritage treated on the face and neck.
-If you experience skin irritation or skin redness after treatment, wait until it
disappears before applying any product to your skin. If you experience skin
irritation after applying a product to your skin, wash it off with water. If you
still get skin reactions, stop using the device and consult your doctor.
-If shaving, epilating or waxing causes skin irritation, we advise you not to use
the device until the skin irritation has disappeared.
-This device is not intended for use by persons with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they
have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the device by a
person responsible for their safety.
-Keep Lumea out of the reach of children.
-Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
device. Supervision is required to avoid potential risks such as exposure to
the light output, electrocution, strangulation from the cables or choking on
the attachments.
-Always avoid exposure to natural sunlight and artificial sunlight up to
4weeks before your Lumea treatment and 48hours afterward. Sensitive or
tanned skin is more likely to result in burns or pigmentation changes. Protect
your skin from sunlight with clothing or apply sun-blocking products of not
less than SPF50 on the non-covered treatment areas. Read the instructions in
chapter 'Using your Lumea before and after sun exposure or tanning' to
learn how to use your Lumea safely.
11
English
-Do not use your Lumea within 2weeks after using artificial tanning products
(such as creams, sprays or pills). Artificially tanned skin is more likely to result
in burns or pigmentation changes. Read the instructions in chapter 'Using
your Lumea before and after sun exposure or tanning' to learn how to use
your Lumea safely.
-If you notice a skin tone change since the last treatment, we advise you to
perform a skin test and to wait 24 hours before your next treatment. If after
this period skin reactions occur or persist, use a lower device setting which
did not lead to skin reactions or stop using the device when already at the
lowest setting (➀).
-Always check the device before you use it. Make sure that the SmartSkin
sensor window is clean when using the device, to avoid improper operation
(see 'D Clean & store after treatment').
-The light exit window and the inner parts of the attachment can become
very hot (>210°C) during usage. Always let the light exit window, as well as
the inner parts of the attachment, cool down before you touch them.
-This device has a detachable power supply unit. Only use the adapter
provided with this device. Do not use an extension cord. The reference
number (AD2069x20020HF) can be found on your device. The 'x' in this
number refers to the plug type for your country.
-Follow the recommended treatment schedule. Increasing the frequency,
especially in the initial phase, can increase the risk of skin reactions.
How IPL works
1
With Intense Pulsed Light technology, gentle pulses of light are applied to the
skin and absorbed by the hair root. The lighter the skin and the darker the hair,
the better the pulses of light are absorbed.
2
The pulses of light stimulate the hair follicle to go into a resting phase. As a
consequence, the hair sheds naturally and hair growth is prevented.
12 English
3
The cycle of hair growth consists of different phases. IPL technology is only
effective when the hair is in its growing phase. Not all hairs are in the growing
phase at the same time. This is why we recommend you to follow the initial
treatment phase (4 treatments, every treatment 2 weeks apart) and then the
follow‑up treatment phase (touch‑ups every 4 weeks) to make sure all hairs are
effectively treated in the growing phase.
Tip: To assure long lasting hair removal, touch-ups every 4 weeks are
recommended.
Suitable body hair colors
Treatment with Lumea is not effective if you have light blond, grey, red or white
hairs as hairs with these colors do not absorb enough light.
Note: To check if your body hair color allows usage of the device, consult the
hair color table on the foldout page.
Recommended treatment schedule
Initial phase
To achieve effective hair reduction, follow the initial treatment schedule.
Initial treatment schedule
For the first 4treatments, use Lumea once every 2weeks to ensure that all hairs
are treated.
-Perform a treatment within 3days before or after the planned treatment
date.
-If you have not treated yourself within 3days before or after the planned
treatment date, restart the initial phase. Plan in 4treatments, 1treatment
every 2weeks.
Note: If you do not restart the initial phase, you may not see effective hair
reduction.
Note: Replacing one of the IPL treatments with another hair removal method
(waxing, epilating, etc.) will not help to reach the desired hair reduction.
If you want to remove hairs in between the Lumea treatments, you can use your
normal hair removal method (excluding hair removal creams).
Touch-up phase
After the initial phase (4 treatments), we recommend touch-ups every 4 weeks.
13
English
Touch-up treatment schedule
Perform a treatment every 4weeks. Repeat this 8 times to achieve effective hair
reduction. This is to maintain results and enjoy smooth skin for months.
-We advise you to perform a treatment within 4days before or after the
planned treatment date.
-The results may vary based on your individual hair growth and also across
different body areas.
-If you have completed the touch-up phase and you see the need to continue
treatment (hair starts coming back), we advise you to restart the initial
phase.
Note: Using the device more often does not increase efficacy.
Tip: Mark the treatment schedule on your calendar to remind yourself of the
planned treatments.
What to expect
During initial phase
-Afterthe first treatment, it can take 1 to 2 weeks for the hairs to fall out. In
the first weeks following the initial treatments, you still see some hairs
growing.These are likely to be hairs that were not in their growing phase
during the first treatments.
-After 2-3 treatments, you should see a noticeable reduction in hair growth.
However, to effectively treat all hairs, it is important to keep on treating
according to the recommended treatment schedule.
-After 4treatments, you should see a significant reduction of hair growth in
the areas that you treated with Lumea. A reduction of hair density should be
visible as well.
During touch-up phase
-Keep on treating with frequent touch-ups (every 4 weeks) to maintain the
result.
How to use your Lumea
A Remove hair & clean your skin
1Remove hair before every treatment as long as hair is still visible. You can
either shave, epilate or wax. Make sure you start to treat before new hair is
visible on your skin. If you choose to wax, wait 24 hours before you use
Lumea.
Note: If shaving, epilating or waxing causes skin irritation, we advise you not
to use the device until the skin irritation has disappeared.
14 English
2Clean and dry your skin. Make sure that it is free from any lotion or gel.
B Test skin 24 hours before treatment
1Test your skin to find the correct light setting:
-For every new body area and/or new attachment.
-After sun exposure or tanning (see 'Using your Lumea before and after sun
exposure or tanning').
2Select the correct attachment to test your skin (see 'Attachments').
3Press the on/off button to turn on the device.
4Choose an area for your skin test.
5Press the device firmly onto your skin and hold it in place.
The integrated safety system prevents unintentional flashingwithout full
skin contact.
15
English
6Confirm that the 'READY to flash' light lights up white to ensure that there is
full contact with your skin.
-If the 'READY to flash' light is orange, your skin is too dark to treat. Try
Lumea on a lighter body area.
7Try each setting on your skin and find your comfortable setting.
If the flash feels uncomfortable and you experience pain, lower the setting.
If you still experience an uncomfortable feeling while using the lowest
setting (➀), please stop using the device.
-When the 'READY to flash' light is white, press the flash button on the
handle once, to treat one spot with setting ➀.
The device makes a soft popping sound. The flash gives you a warm
sensation.
• You will see a flash of light.
Note: You can toggle through the light intensity settings by pressing the
toggle button.

8Wait 24 hours.
Note: Even though you found your comfortable setting during the skin test,
it may occur that skin reactions show within 24hours after usage.
16 English
9Check your skin for any reactions (e.g. redness, irritation, rash).
If there are no skin reactions after 24hours, start the treatment with the
highest comfortable setting.
If the highest comfortable setting resulted in a skin reaction, choose a lower
setting that did not result in any skin reactions.
If you did not test a lower setting, repeat the skin test.
C Treatment
IMPORTANT: First finish sections A (Remove hair & clean your skin) and B (Test
skin 24hours before treatment) before starting treatment.
1Connect the power adapter to the device and plug into a power outlet.
2Press the on/off button to turn on the device.
3Choose the setting you selected after the skin test (section B, step 9).
17
English
4Press the device firmly onto your skin and hold it in place. The 'READY to
flash' light should light up white.
5Press the flash button to release a flash on your skin. The flash treats the skin
in that spot.
The device makes a soft popping sound. The flash gives you a warm
sensation.
After each flash, it takes up to 3.5 seconds until the device is ready to flash
again. You can release a flash when the 'READY to flash' light lights up
white.
6Move to an adjacent spot and press the flash button again. The surface of
the attachment that is in contact with your skin is slightly larger than the
light exit window.
Do not flash the same spot multiple times during a treatment. The surface of
the attachment should overlap the previous spot to make sure you flash the
complete skin area, but treating the same area multiple times does not
increase efficacy.
7Continue until you have treated the full area. There are two treatment
modes (see 'Two treatment modes: Stamp & Flash and Slide & Flash').
8Turn off the device when you finished the treatment.
9Remove hair before every next treatment, as long as hair is still visible.

Learning more about your Lumea
Attachments
For optimal results, it is important to use the correct attachment intended for
the specific body area you want to treat. Lumea offers full‑body treatment with
several attachments designed for use on specific body areas. SenseIQ
technology adapts the treatment program when a different attachment is
connected.
Note: The device may not work anymore and show an error when there is dirt
on the attachment connector. Clean the contact leads when this occurs.
To place the attachment, simply snap it onto the light exit window.
To remove the attachment, pull it off the light exit window.
Body attachment
The body attachment has the largest treatment window and a curved-in design
to effectively cover and treat areas below the neckline, especially large areas
such as legs, arms and stomach.
Face attachment (BRI944, BRI945, BRI946, BRI947, BRI948)
The face attachment has a precise flat design with extra integrated red glass
filter for safe and precise treatment on the sensitive skin above the upper lip,
chin and sideburns. The device is only intended for removing unwanted body
hair from areas below the cheekbones. When you use the device on areas with
sharp contours like the jawline and chin, it may be difficult to establish full skin
contact and release a flash.
Tip: Place your tongue between your upper lip and your teeth or puff out your
cheeks to make the treatment easier.
20 English
Underarm attachment (BRI947, BRI948)
The underarm attachment has a specifically curved-out design to treat
underarm hairs that might be hard to reach.
Bikini attachment (BRI947, BRI948)
The bikini attachment has a specialized design for effective treatment of the
bikini area. It has a curved-out design and has a higher light intensity compared
to body attachment. Hair in this area tends to be thicker and stronger than leg
hair.
Precision attachment (BRI946)
The precision attachment has a curved-out design for use on bikini and
underarm areas. It has a medium sized window with a glass window. It is
designed for precise and effective coverage of bikini and underarm areas.
SmartSkin sensor
Lumea offers SenseIQ technology for a personalized hair removal treatment.
The integrated SmartSkin sensor measures the skin tone at the start of each
session and during the session. This provides two features:
1The SmartSkin sensor prevents you to treat areas of your skin that are too
dark: if it detects a skin tone that is too dark for treatment with Lumea, the
'READY to flash' light starts blinking orange. It does not flash when you press
the flash button. The device automatically disables. This prevents you from
developing skin reactions.
2The SmartSkin sensor will help you to select the light intensity setting that is
comfortable for your skin. For this you can use the SmartSkin button .
