AYO is an advanced wearable technology that provides users with a portable and personal light experience. AYO is not a medical device and is not intended to cure, treat or diagnose any disease or medical condition. The effect of AYO’s technology may vary depending on individual application and duration of use. Warnings and cautions set forth in the product information do not constitute medical advice and cannot substitute consulting a doctor. We recommend that you seek medical advice before using AYO’s technology, if you are not certain of its potential interaction with medicines, medical conditions, or diseases.
The AYO technology should be used in strict accordance with the instructions, warnings, and cautions provided in the product box.
Failure to do so may result in injury or damage.

WARNINGS
Children under 4 years of age must be kept away from the AYO device at all times.

The AYO technology is not recommendable for use by:

• Children less than 18 years old without adult supervision;
• Individuals with light sensitivity, epilepsy or a history of seizures;
• Individuals with reduced physical, sensory or mental ability, or by individuals with insufficient experience and / or knowledge to operate such a device.

Consult with a physician before using the AYO technology:

• If you suffer from bipolar disorder (manic depression), SAD (seasonal affective disorder) or if you have a history of eye disease in the family;
• If you have an eye disease (glaucoma, retinitis or retinopathy, or macular degeneration);
• If you use photosensitizing medications as light might change the effectiveness of some medications (e.g. antibiotics, antihistamines, chemotherapy drugs, cardiac, diabetic and skin medications, etc.

STOP USING THE AYO DEVICE

• STOP USING THE AYO device, if you experience any discomfort such as headache, dry mouth, eye-strain, nausea or hyperactivity. These adverse reactions are generally mild and transient in nature, so you can attempt using the device in a few days. If the adverse reactions continue, you should stop using the device immediately and contact your physician for advice.
• As with any intense light source, DO NOT stare directly into the source of light itself. DO NOT USE the AYO device for more than 1 hour per day. In addition, using AYO before sleep or during your biological night may affect your sleep (sleep timing, sleep quality and ability to fall asleep).
• DO NOT charge the AYO device with anything other than the provided charging cable. Never use damaged or worn cords or plugs as this could result in electric shock, burns and or fire.
• DO NOT USE, if the AYO device is damaged or not working properly in any way and contact your retailer for assistance.
• DO NOT expose the AYO device to high temperatures or direct sunlight and DO NOT USE near heat sources and devices. Never use the device near open fire. The AVO wearable has an internal rechargeable battery, and batteries can sometimes overheat, causing fire or bursting.
• Keep the AYO device dry. Storage areas must be dry. DO NOT immerse or expose to water or moisture (e.g. do not use in the bath, pool, etc.).
• DO NOT USE in situations where the device or light stimulation might compromise your ability to perform essential tasks or put you or other persons at risk of injury such as driving a vehicle or operating machinery.
• DO NOT open or modify the AYO device. Changing any characteristic of the original design (mechanics, electronics, software, etc.) could result in malfunction, loss of functionality, and even compromised product safety. Any modification of the AVO device will lead to complete loss of warranty and responsibility by the manufacturer.

CAUTIONS
When not using the device for a prolonged period of time, make sure to charge it fully before storing in order to maintain battery health. It is advisable to recharge your device at least once a month when not in use to ensure optimal operational performance and battery health.
Allow the AYO device to rest for at least 1 hour after it has been moved from cold to warm surroundings in order to mitigate risk of water condensation inside of the device.
Avoid applying mechanical stress to the wearable such as straining or bending the device’s arms or applying any type of static force.
DO NOT USE the AYO device across the chest, neck, or around the mouth.
DO NOT USE the AYO device while wearing glasses with photochromatic or tinted glasses.
Avoid placing the AYO device in contact with chemicals (such as hairspray). Clean by wiping with a dry cloth, avoiding the light-generating area.
The AYO device is intended to be used by only one person. If, nevertheless, you share the device with someone, please pay attention to ensure the hygiene of the AYO device.
