This Product must be periodically checked. A defective Product should not be used. Broken, missing,

plainly worn, distorted or contaminated parts should be replaced immediately. No modification or

alteration of this device is allowed.

How it works

Many newborn infants are born with jaundice. Jaundice occurs because your baby's liver has not

fully developed and the body has more bilirubin than it can get rid of. Bilirubin is a yellow substance

that's made when the body breaks down old red blood cells. It leaves the body through urine and

stool.

The blue light provided by the device passes through your baby’s skin and breaks down the Bilirubin

into compounds that your baby can more easily process into waste. Therefore it is important to

expose your baby’s skin to as much of the blue light as possible.
