Unpacking Light
Mounting to Stand2
2.1 Unpacking your light.
Your DayLight 5K2
is packed in
protective foam. Be sure to keep
your shipping carton and foam
packing; it will be needed should
your light ever require servicing.
2.2 Attaching light.
Remove the light assembly from
the packaging. Prior to operat-
ing, your light must be attached to
the top shelf of the stand or to a
suitable flat, secure surface. Open
the clamp by turning the knob
counterclockwise until it clears
the surface to which you want it
attached.Tighten the clamp to the
mounting surface by turning the
knob clockwise.
2.3 Power connection.
Your DayLight 5K2
operates at
100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz, allowing
its use virtually anywhere in the
world. If you are outside North
America, you may need a plug
adapter to make the connection.
Attach the coaxial connector on
the end of the power supply cord
to the connector on the bottom of
the clamp, then connect the AC
plug to an electrical outlet.

Flex Adjustment3
Your DayLight 5K2
features two sections of a unique positioning technology.
The upper and lower flex sections utilize three different flex materials working
together to provide angular and azimuth adjustments that allow you to position
the light head in an infinite number of positions, and do so without drooping or
slipping.
3.1 Up/down angle.
Use the lower flex section to
achieve the bulk of your desired
up or down angle. Place one hand
on the clamp while gently pushing
the control housing up or down
to desired angle. You can “fine
tune” the up/down angle with the
upper flex section by grasping the
front of the control housing and
gently pressing the light head up
or down to achieve the desired
position.
3.2 Rotation angle.
Your DayLight 5K2
is specifically
designed to fit the shape of the
SpaWhite lens/mouthpiece. For
best fit, the rotational angle of the
light head should be parallel to the
plane of the mouthpiece.To adjust
the rotational angle, gently grasp
the light head and the upper flex
section and twist the flex tube to
desired angle.

Control Panel4
4.3 Start.
Once you have set the desired treat-
ment time, activate the light in timed
mode by pressing the START/STOP
button. The light head will activate
and the timer will begin counting
down one minute at a time. When
the timer reaches 1 minute, it begins
counting down in seconds (60, 59, 58
and so on.). When you notice the dis-
play changing rapidly, you know that
you have less than a minute before
your client requires your attention.
4.4 Stop.
When the light is running in timed
mode, pressing START/STOP will
pause the light. PAUSE mode is indi-
cated by the display flashing. Press-
ing START/STOP a second time will
resume the treatment from the point
it was paused.
4.2 White/Blue
This control illuminates the light without
activating the timer for performing shade-
matching inspections. Using this control
you may select the color of light through
a rotation of button presses. First press dis-
plays white light, second
press activates blue light,
and third press is a test
mode that illuminates
both blue and white
LEDs. A fourth press
turns the lillumation off while leaving the
light powered up.

Inspection & Whitening
Modes5
5.1 Inspection (white light) mode.
This mode produces white light that
replicates daylight (color temperature 5000
Kelvin), so your inspections are accurate
and easily replicated, regardless of ambient
lighting.To activate inspection mode, press
the blue|white button until the white light is
illuminated.
To select the white light mode, press the
blue|white button until the solid blue light
is visible, then press once more. Two presses
from blue will activate the test mode, which
is not to be used for shade matching inspec-
tions.To return to whitening mode, press the
start button, assuring the light is emitting
blue light only. If not emitting blue light,
press the blue|white light until it does.
5.2 Whitening (blue light) mode.
The blue light emitted by the DayLight
5K2
is the ideal spectrum for energizing and
accelerating the active ingredients in the
SpaWhite gel. When exposed to moderately
high amounts of light in the 430 to 470
nanometer spectrum, these active ingredients
accelerate their release of hydroxyl radicals,
which act to break down stains on tooth
enamel.
The whitening mode is selected by
setting the timer to the desired treatment
duration – usually 15 to 20 minutes – and
pressing the start button, assuring the light
is emitting blue light only.
5000K white light for consistent,
accurate shade matching.
Alternating Wavelength (AW)
mode for enhanced whitening.
430 ~ 470nm blue light for teeth
whitening.
5.2 Advanced Whitening mode.
The new DayLight 5K Series 2 incor-
porates advanced Light Emitting Diode
(LED) technology, allowing for electronic
switching between colors.
The Series 2 features a new mode,
Alternating Wavelength, or AW, which
begins the whitening assistance process
with five minutes of blue light. adds full
spectrum white LEDs to the blue for
minutes six through 10. This “five-on-
five-off” pattern repeats for the duration
of the whitening process and accomplishes
two things:
First, the hydroxyl radicals require
blue light to split away from the hydrogen
peroxide. Once this process is initiated,
the addition of the white light causes the
radicals to move at more varying rates
than with the blue spectrum only, allowing
more uniform stain removal coverage.
Second, it generates more heat than
the blue mode alone, and heat is one of
the five critical elements required for suc-
cessful teeth whitening. The other four are
hydrogen peroxide, time, pressure, and, of
course, light. Heat further accelerates the
release and activity of the hydroxyl radi-
cals, producing a more thorough whiten-
ing process.
This heat level is quite safe. Ad-
vanced passive cooling methodology used
in all versions of the DayLight 5K limits
the surface temperature of the light emit-
ting head to 113°F, so while it feels quite
warm to the touch, it is well within the
safe zone. The heat is transferred to the
gel by radiating from the LED housing
through the clear mouthpiece.

What You Should Know
About the SpaWhite Smile
Rejuvenation Process6SpaWhite is the most advanced smile reju-
venation treatment available. It will make
your smile fresher, brighter, and whiter.
SpaWhite is different from other whiten-
ing systems because it delivers better results
more rapidly and with greater safety than
less advanced methods. The process har-
nesses patented technologies borne out of
a multimillion dollar research and develop-
ment program including:
• An impregnated foam compression pad
designed for unprecedented penetration
of hydrogen peroxide into tooth enamel.
The compression pad also causes the
hydrogen peroxide to release at a more
uniform rate over time. This acts to
eliminate the tooth sensitivity typically
associated with other power and take-
home whitening systems. It also con-
forms to the shape and position of your
teeth even better than trays custom made
by dentists, since it conforms to your
bite shape when you use it, while custom
trays can lose their fit over time with
natural changes in your bite.
• The DayLight 5K2
: A state-of-the-art
cosmetic teeth whitening light that ac-
celerates the whitening process through
interaction with the foam-pad- and pH
stabilized whitening gel.This light uses
advanced light-emitting diode technol-
ogy, which is vastly more efficient than
older, incandescent technologies used
by less advanced whitening systems.
This new light design is extremely stable
thermally, requiring none of the fans or
other forced cooling methods required of
older technology.
• The advanced design of the light used
with SpaWhite heats the light head
case to about 12°F above normal body
temperature; it remains at that level
during the SpaWhite process. This is
sufficiently warm to optimize the flow
and molecular excitation of the whiten-
ing gel through the pads and onto the
teeth, yet is cool enough so as not to
cause any discomfort or risk of radiant
or contact burns, as may be the case with
less advanced technologies.
• The SpaWhite process employs a nar-
row blue-light spectrum — just what’s
needed for acceleration of the formation
of hydroxyl radicals from the whitening
gel (the hydroxyl radicals are the com-
ponents that permeate the tooth enamel
and break down stains).This is impor-
tant, since with SpaWhite there is no
UV light exposure or risk of over heating
the teeth, as is the case with some other
whitening methods.
• A unique light-guiding mouth piece
that disperses blue light over all tooth
surfaces via its built-in optical lens. This
technology allows you to close your
mouth during the procedure and elimi-
nates the need for uncomfortable lip and
cheek retractors. It also acts to create a
teeth-to-pad fit that is actually superior
to custom-made trays, as the mouth-
piece/pad combination acts to optimize
pressure based on the bite position in
real time.
How white will my teeth get?
The color of your smile is determined by
two layers of tooth structure: the lighter
enamel (outer layer) and the darker dentin
(inner layer). The composition of these is
determined by your genetics. Your teeth
will never be whiter than they were when
14. – 10 –
they emerged in childhood. But for most
individuals this is very white.
The patented SpaWhite process attacks
and removes even deep stains that have
accumulated in your tooth enamel — the
lighter colored outer layer. As a result,
most individuals will experience a signifi-
cant improvement. However, no noninva-
sive cosmetic whitening treatment — even
SpaWhite —can lighten your dentin. If
your tooth enamel is unusually thin or
translucent, or if your dentin is especially
dark, you may not be able to achieve the
level of brightness you desire without den-
tal veneers placed by a cosmetic dentist.
White spots
“White spots” represent areas of the teeth
where earlier changes in the mineral con-
tent have occurred. This alteration can be
caused by genetics, nutrition, poor dental
hygiene, or unbalanced fluoride intake dur-
ing tooth development. White spots can
become evident after orthodontic braces
have been removed. The SpaWhite smile
rejuvenation process can reveal white spots
previously hidden by stains. This effect
usually fades within 24 to 48 hours. Con-
tinued use of WhiteIce and regular fluoride
therapies, including brushing with fluoride
toothpaste, will usually help remedy the
appearance of these white spots.
Dental restorations
SpaWhite works best on natural tooth
structure. While SpaWhite does remove
surface stains from dental restorations
such as crowns or caps, veneers, and white
fillings, It is not intended to make them
whiter. The color of these structures will
remain as they were when installed unless
they have accumulated stains. SpaWhite
will still give you a brighter overall smile,
but a cosmetic dentist should be consulted
if you wish to have these restorations
match your natural teeth made whiter by
SpaWhite.
Tooth sensitivity
The SpaWhite technology makes it pos-
sible to get excellent cosmetic results
without the tooth sensitivity typically
associated with whitening procedures.
However, on very rare occasions tooth
sensitivity can occur. This is usually a mild
and brief side effect, generally subsiding
within 24 hours.Treatment with an over-
the-counter analgesic such as ibuprofen
or acetaminophen may provide temporary
relief. Normal gentle brushing with Whi-
teScience multi-action whitening tooth-
paste is recommended. SpaWhite has a
diagnostic benefit: Sensitivity lasting more
than a few days may reveal conditions that
you should bring to the attention of your
dentist, such as micro-fractures, decay, or
leaking restorations.
Blanching and irritation
A slight blanching or whitening of the
gums is normal. Usually lasting no more
than 30 minutes, this blanching represents
a healthy healing phase induced by the
antiseptic properties of the whitening gel,
which reduce bacteria levels in the mouth.
Clients with gingivitis, periodontal disease,
or compromised gums may experience
some post-treatment soreness. This irrita-
tion usually lasts no more than 24 hours.
Applying a small amount of vitamin E
oil to this area will accelerate the healing.
If significant discomfort is encountered
during the SpaWhite procedure, the cli-
ent should remove the mouthpiece and
continue to whiten at home with WhiteIce.
Minor inflammation, chapping, or irrita-
tion of the lips may also occur in rare cases,
which can be treated with the application
of lip balm, petroleum jelly, or vitamin E
oil. An over-the-counter anti-inflammatory
such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen may
be used to provide relief in extraordinary
cases where symptoms last more than two
hours; use as directed on the label of the
medication.

No user-serviceable parts.
There are no bulbs or other devices in your DayLight 5K2
which will “burn out.”
The advanced light-emitting diode technology outlasts conventional light bulbs
to an extreme degree.They last longer than incandescent bulbs by hundreds —
even thousands — of times. Should one of the diodes or any other part of your
DayLight 5K2
ever fail, contact your Territory Manager who will arrange to have
it repaired or replaced for you as long as you are an authorized SpaWhite dealer
in good standing.
Use of the hex wrench.
Over time and with use the special nuts
that secure the control section to the up-
per and lower flex sections may loosen.
Should this occur, the head will not hold
position, but will tip from one side or the
other. To correct this situation, use the
thin hex wrench that came in your carry-
ing case to re-tighten these two nuts.
Normal operating temperature.
The advanced design and light-emitting diode technology of your DayLight 5K2
allows it to operate without fans or other forced cooling methods. The extremely
efficient thermal design allows the case temperature of the light head to rise to
about 113°F and remain at that temperature as long as the light-emitting diodes
are illuminated. This temperature is quite safe and will not deform or affect the
clear SpaWhite lens/mouthpiece.
