Natural Spectrum and Productivity

Shedding Light on Natural Spectrum®

Whenitcomestomaximizingwork,studyortasktime,aVeriluxlamp

is the perfect partner. It uses Natural Spectrum Light that replicates key

beneficial wavelengths of natural daylight to help you read faster with

greater comprehension, work longer without eyestrain and improve

productivity and focus.

Research using Verilux Natural Spectrum Light and comparable

lighting in school and work settings resulted in significantly greater

visual acuity, enhancing student performance and worker productivity

when compared to other light sources.

Natural Spectrum Light is the result of more than 50 years of research

to build lighting that meets the needs of the human eye. At home,

college or office, your Verilux lamp is the perfect productivity partner.

Verilux Natural Spectrum light illuminates in the broader scotopic range to

betterstimulatetheconesandrods(photoreceptors)oftheeye.Thisenhanced

stimulationimprovesvisualperformancebyreducingthesizeofthepupiltobetter

focus light, relaxing the eye while increasing visual acuity and processing.

Care and Cleaning

Your lamp is made from high-quality materials that will last for many years with

minimum care. You may want to periodically clean the lamp using a mild non-

abrasive cleaner and soft cloth. When cleaning, make sure you have turned off

and unplugged the unit and allowed sufficient time for the unit to cool.

Do not use solvents or cleaners containing abrasives,

or ammonia-based cleaners.

Do not use any cleaning agents, including window

cleaner, on the Optix® glare control filter. If needed, dust with a clean,

dry cloth.

After cleaning the lamp, all moisture should be properly

wiped away and dried before storing power.

CAUTION:

PROBLEM CHECK SOLUTION

Has the plug come

loose?

Is the bulb old?

Is the bulb connected

securely into socket?

Is the bulb new?

Is the bulb old?

Has the plug come

loose?

Is the bulb connected

securely to the socket?

Is the lamp connected

to a dimmer switch?

Insert plug securely into wall outlet.

Check bulb for blackening/darkening at bottom of spiral where it joins the

base (an indicator of bulb life) and replace bulb.

Be sure the bulb is securely seated in the socket. Repeat the bulb

installation process.

Always unplug lamp before performing

bulb replacement or installation.

Sometimes when a new bulb is turned on for the first time the tubing will

darken, but this will fade after a few minutes.

With older bulbs, darkening of the tubing indicates end of bulb life. (This

doesn’t affect operation except to reduce the amount of light available,

since the phosphor in that area has become inactive.) Bulb replacement

is recommended.

Insert plug securely into wall outlet.

Connect lamp plug only to wall outlet without dimmer switch.

Be sure the bulb is securely seated into the socket. Repeat the bulb

installation process. Always unplug lamp before performing

bulb replacement or installation.

CAUTION:

WARNING:

Do not block vents on ballast. Vents are necessary for

proper function of the ballast. Blocking them may cause overheating of

the ballast and increase risk of fire.
