Introduction

The Innergize is a Wellness Solarium that offers a revitalising summer sun experience by combining infrared warmth or infratan with 

ambient scents and sounds*. The infrared function warms you, relaxes your muscles and joints and makes you feel revitalised. The infratan 

function (a combination of infrared warmth and UV light) allows you to enjoy a natural full-body tan. The Innergize folds to a compact size in 

three simple steps to save valuable space. HB947 also features a remote control and an FM radio. 

* HB933 does not feature any sound options.

Important

Read the user manual carefully before you use the appliance and save it for future reference.

Check if the voltage indicated on the appliance corresponds to the mains voltage in your home before you connect the appliance.

If the wall socket used to power the appliance has poor connections, the plug of the appliance becomes hot. Make sure you plug the 

appliance into a properly connected wall socket.

The appliance must be connected to a circuit that is protected with a 16A standard fuse or a slow-blow automatic fuse.

If the mains cord is damaged, it must be replaced by Philips, a service centre authorised by Philips or similarly qualified persons in order 

to avoid a hazard.

Always unplug the appliance after use.

Water and electricity are a dangerous combination. Do not use this appliance in wet surroundings (e.g. in the bathroom or near a 

shower or swimming pool).

If you have just been swimming or have just taken a shower, dry yourself thoroughly before you use the appliance.

Let the appliance cool down after use for approx. 15 minutes before you fold it back into transport position and store it.

Make sure the vents in the centre and at both ends of the lamp unit housing remain open during use.

The appliance is fitted with an automatic protection against overheating. If the appliance is insufficiently cooled (e.g. because the vents 

are covered), the appliance switches off automatically. Once you have removed the cause of overheating and the appliance has cooled 

down, the appliance automatically switches on again.

The UV filters become very hot when you use the appliance. Do not touch them.

The appliance contains hinging parts, so be careful not to get your fingers stuck between these parts.

Never use the appliance when a UV filter is damaged, broken or missing.

Never use the appliance when the timer, the control panel or the remote control (HB947 only) is defective.

Keep the scent granules out of the reach of children.

The scent granules are not edible.

In case of eye contact with the scent granules, flush the eyes immediately with plenty of water.

Do not use the scent cartridge if you are allergic to scent. Consult your doctor in case of doubt.

Make sure children do not play with the appliance.

Do not exceed the recommended session time and the maximum number of tanning hours (see section ‘Tanning sessions: how often 

and how long?’).

englIsH

Do not take a tanning and/or relax session if you have a disease and/or use medication or cosmetics that increase the sensitivity of your 

skin. Be extra careful if you are hypersensitive to UV light or IR light. Consult your doctor in case of doubt.

Do not use the tanning appliance and consult your doctor if unexpected effects such as itching occur within 48 hours after the first 

session.

Do not tan a particular part of your body more than once a day. Avoid excessive exposure to natural sunlight on the same day.

Consult your doctor if persistent lumps or sores appear on the skin, or if there are changes in pigmented moles.

The appliance is not to be used by people who get sunburnt without tanning when exposed to the sun, by persons who suffer from 

sunburn, by children, or by persons who suffer (or have previously suffered) from skin cancer or who are predisposed to skin cancer.

Always wear the protective goggles provided with the appliance while tanning to protect your eyes from excessive doses of visible light, 

UV light and IR light (also see chapter ‘Tanning and your health’).

Remove creams, lipstick and other cosmetics well in advance of a tanning session.

Do not use any sunscreens or suntan accelerators.

If your skin feels taut after the tanning session, you may apply a moisturising cream.

To acquire an even tan, lie down straight below the lamp unit.

Do not choose a tanning distance of less than 70cm.

Only move the appliance when it is in transport position.

Colours fade under the influence of the sun. The same effect may occur when you use this appliance.

Do not expect the appliance to yield better results than the natural sun.

Noise level: Lc= 57, dB [A]

electromagnetic fields (eMF)

This Philips appliance complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF). If handled properly and in accordance with the 

instructions in this user manual, the appliance is safe to use according to scientific evidence available today.

tanning and your health

The sun supplies various types of energy. Visible light enables us to see, ultraviolet (UV) light gives us a tan and the infrared (IR) light in sunrays 

provides the heat in which we like to bask.

Just as with natural sunlight, the tanning process takes some time. The first effect only becomes visible after a few sessions (see section ‘Tanning 

sessions: how often and how long?’).

Overexposure to ultraviolet light (natural sunlight or artificial light from your tanning appliance) can cause sunburn.

Besides many other factors, such as overexposure to natural sunlight, incorrect and excessive use of a tanning appliance may increase the risk of 

skin and eye problems. The degree to which these effects occur is determined by the nature, intensity and duration of the exposure on the one 

hand and the sensitivity of the person involved on the other hand.

The more the skin and the eyes are exposed to UV light, the higher the risk of keratitis, conjunctivitis, damage to the retina, cataracts, premature 

skin ageing and the development of skin tumours will be. Some medications and cosmetics increase the sensitivity of the skin.Therefore it is 

highly important:

that you follow the instructions in chapter ‘Important’ and section ‘Tanning sessions: how often and how long?’.

that the tanning distance (distance between the UV filters and the body) is 70cm.

that you do not exceed the maximum number of tanning hours per year (i.e. 22 hours or 1320 minutes).

that you always wear the goggles provided while you are tanning.

tanning sessions: how often and how long?

Do not take more than one tanning session a day, over a period of 5 to 10 days.

Take a break of at least 48 hours between the first and the second session.

After this 5 to 10-day course, we advise you to stop tanning for a while.

Approximately one month after a course, your skin will have lost much of its tan. You can then start a new course.

If you want to keep your tan, do not stop tanning after the course, but continue with one or two tanning sessions a week.

Whether you choose to stop tanning for a while or whether you continue tanning on a lower frequency, always keep in mind that you 

must not exceed the maximum number of tanning hours.

For this appliance, the maximum is  tanning hours (= 130 minutes) a year.

example

Suppose you take a 10-day tanning course, with a 9-minute session on the first day and a 20-minute session on the nine following days. 

The entire course then lasts (1 x 9 minutes) + (9 x 20 minutes) = 189 minutes.

This means you can take 6 of these courses in one year, as 6 x 189 minutes = 1134 minutes.

Of course, the maximum number of tanning hours applies to each separate part or side of the body that is tanned (e.g. the back or front of the 

body).

Tip:For a beautiful all-over tan, turn your body slightly during the session so that the sides of your body are better exposed to the tanning light.

Tip:If your skin feels slightly taut after tanning, you can apply a moisturising cream.

Tip:If you use function  

¼

 (HB947/HB945 only), we advise you to extend the tanning sessions by approximately 5 minutes. This does not apply to the 

first tanning session, which must not last longer than 9 minutes. 

table

As the table shows, the first session of a tanning course must always last 9 minutes, irrespective of the sensitivity of the skin.

If you think that the sessions are too long for you (e.g. because your skin feels taut and tender after the session), we advise you to reduce the 

length of the sessions by e.g. 5 minutes.

relaxation and your health 

Warmth has a relaxing effect. Think of what a hot bath or lazing in the sunshine does to you. You can enjoy the same relaxing effect by selecting 

the relax function 

×

 or  

‚

. 

Bear in mind the following when you have a relax session:

Avoid getting too hot. Increase the distance between yourself and the lamps, if necessary.

If your head gets too hot, cover it or move your body so that less heat is emitted towards your head. 

Close your eyes during a relax session.

Do not let the relax session last too long (see section ‘Relax sessions: how often and how long?’).

relax sessions: how often and how long?

If you want to pamper your muscles or joints or want to enjoy the relaxing warmth of the Innergize without getting a tan, only switch on the 

infrared lamps to get a deep relaxation. If you want to continue enjoying the Innergize’s warmth after your tanning session, switch on the infrared 

lamps only for a relax session.

You can take infrared relax sessions several times a day (e.g. 30 minutes in the morning and in the evening).

Preparing for use

You can easily move and store the appliance in transport position (Fig. ).

 3 

 Replace the granules when the cartridge no longer emits any fragrance. Replacement packages with 3 sachets of scent granules are 

available under type number HB080.

Please bear in mind that the fragrance level depends on a number of factors, such as the following:

Habituation may cause fragrances to be perceived less or not at all, but this is normal.

When you lie on your belly, the fragrance is less noticeable than when you lie on your back.

Airflows in the room where you use the appliance may also affect the fragrance level.

Your personal condition may also influence the degree to which you perceive the fragrance.

stereo active speakers & ambient sounds (HB947/HB945 only)

tanning lamps

Have the Philips tanning lamps (Cleo HPA Synergy) replaced by a service centre authorised by Philips. Only they have the knowledge and 

skills required for this job and the original spare parts for the appliance. 

The light that the tanning lamps emit becomes less bright in time (i.e. after a few years in case of normal use). When this happens, you notice a 

decrease in the tanning capacity of the appliance. 

After 750 operating hours the tanning capacity of the lamps has decreased so much that replacement of the tanning lamps is advisable. 

HB947/HB945: the appliance has a counter that records the operating hours of the tanning lamps. After 750 operating hours, an L appears 

on the left-hand side of the display to indicate that replacement of the tanning lamps is advisable (Fig. 44).

The UV filters protect against exposure to undesired UV light. It is therefore important to have a damaged or broken filter replaced right 

away.

If the mains cord is damaged, it must be replaced by Philips, a service centre authorised by Philips or similarly qualified persons in order to 

avoid a hazard.

Customer Care Centre in your country.

Question

Answer

Why doesn’t the appliance work?

The plug may not be properly inserted in the wall socket. Put the plug properly in the wall socket.

There may be a power failure. Test if the power supply works by connecting another appliance.

The tanning lamps may still be too hot to go on. Let them cool down for 3 minutes first.

The overheat protection may have switched off the appliance automatically because it overheated. 

Remove the cause of overheating (e.g. a towel that blocks one or more vents). Let the appliance 

cool down for a while and then switch the appliance back on.

Make sure the lamp unit is in the right position. See chapter ‘Preparing for use’.

Why does the top of the control panel 

become hot during use?

The lamps heat up the top of the control panel. This is normal.

Why does the fuse of the circuit to 

which the appliance is connected cut off 

the power when I switch on or use the 

appliance?

The fuse of the circuit to which the tanning appliance is connected must be a 16A standard fuse 

or a slow-blow automatic fuse. You may also have connected too many appliances to the same 

circuit.

Why are the tanning results not as good 

as I expected?

Perhaps you use an extension cord that is too long and/or does not have the correct current 

rating. Consult your dealer. Our general advice is not to use an extension cord.

You may have followed a tanning course that is not appropriate for your skin type. Check the 

table in section ‘Tanning sessions: how often and how long?’

The distance between the lamps and the surface you lie on may be larger than prescribed. See 

chapter ‘Preparing for use’.

When the lamps have been used for a long time, the tanning capacity decreases. This effect only 

becomes noticeable after several years. To solve this problem, select a slightly longer tanning time 

or have the lamps replaced. HB947/HB945 only: after 750 operating hours, an L appears on the 

display which tells you that it is advisable to have the lamps replaced.

The tanning result depends on your skin type and the tanning course you are taking. The first 

effect only becomes visible after a few sessions.

Why doesn’t the appliance produce 

enough fragrance?

Read the last part of section ‘Natural fragrances’ in chapter ‘Using the appliance’.

What should I do when the display 

shows ‘Err’ (HB947/HB945 only) and/or 

the appliance beeps?

Stop using the appliance and unplug it. Wait two seconds and put the plug back into the wall 

socket. Contact your dealer or a Philips service centre if the problem reoccurs.
